Network Engineer

• 5+ years in a senior network/infrastructure engineering role supporting enterprise environments (hybrid datacenter + cloud). \n

• Strong, hands on experience with Kubernetes, VMware (vSphere/ESX/ESXi), and Microsoft Azure (these are must-haves). \n

• Proven experience designing/supporting enterprise networks: LAN/WAN/Wi-Fi, routing/switching, VPNs, QoS, and troubleshooting (packet capture/traffic analysis). \n

• Firewall administration experience with one or more of SonicWall, Cisco ASA, and Palo Alto (policy, VPN, logging/triage). \n

• Experience with virtualization operations and performance tuning (compute, storage, networking). \n

• Windows Server administration experience (including legacy environments as needed), Active Directory, Group Policy, and Exchange in enterprise contexts. \n

• Working knowledge supporting SQL Server environments (AlwaysOn preferred). \n

• Strong operational habits: change management discipline, incident response, documentation, and clear communication. \n, * Bachelor’s degree in a related field and significant datacenter operations experience. \n

• Certifications such as CCNA/CCNP, VCP, Nutanix (NCP), Azure (AZ-104/AZ-305), Security+, or equivalent experience. \n

• Experience with Cisco UCS, NetApp FAS/AFF, and FlexPod architectures in production environments. \n

• Familiarity with IIS/Tomcat administration and email security tooling (e.g., SpamTitan). \n

• Experience with tools such as Jira, Kace, SolarWinds, PRTG, Cerberus SFTP, Zerto, Trend Micro, WSUS, and related monitoring/endpoint/security platforms. \n

• Own day to day operations of the VMware environment (vSphere/ESX/ESXi): lifecycle management, capacity, performance tuning, patching, upgrades, backup/DR coordination, and incident response. \n

• Partner on the virtualization roadmap, including planning and execution for migration from VMware to Nutanix (or Nutanix-based platforms), minimizing downtime and risk. \n

• Operate and optimize storage and compute platforms (e.g., Cisco UCS, SAN/NAS such as NetApp FAS/AFF, FlexPod), including performance troubleshooting and resilience planning. \n

\n

Cloud & Platform Operations

\n \n

• Manage and optimize Microsoft Azure workloads: networking, compute, storage, security controls, cost optimization, and operational monitoring. \n

• Operate Kubernetes environments (cluster upgrades, reliability, networking, ingress, policy, and workload troubleshooting). \n

• Build, deploy, and support Docker containerized applications and supporting infrastructure (registries, image hygiene, runtime security, scaling). \n

• Implement and maintain load balancing solutions (L4/L7), including TLS configuration and operational monitoring. \n

\n

Network Engineering & Communications

\n \n

• Design, implement, and support enterprise data/voice/video networks across LAN/WAN/Wi-Fi. \n

• Configure and support routing/switching and core network services (TCP/IP, BGP, OSPF, VLANs, QoS, DHCP/DNS). \n

• Administer and harden firewalls/VPNs (SonicWall, Cisco ASA, Palo Alto) and support secure remote access patterns. \n

\n

Security, Secure Transfers, and Compliance Support

\n \n

• Maintain secure internal and external data transfer mechanisms (e.g., SFTP/managed file transfer), including certificate/keys, access controls, and auditing. \n

• Support vulnerability remediation, security hardening, and practical control implementation aligned to customer/security expectations (e.g., PCI/SOC related controls where applicable). \n

• Own SSL/TLS certificate lifecycle management across infrastructure components. \n

\n

Operational Excellence & Automation

\n \n

• Build repeatable, automated operations (Infrastructure as Code and configuration management preferred), reducing manual work and increasing reliability. \n

• Improve observability and troubleshooting practices (monitoring, alerting, packet capture, traffic analysis) and drive root cause prevention. \n

• Participate in on call/after hours support rotations as needed for high priority incidents and maintenance windows. \n

\n

Collaboration

\n \n

• Collaborate across internal teams and external vendors/clients to plan changes, execute upgrades, resolve incidents, and document outcomes. \n

• Create and maintain clear technical documentation (runbooks, diagrams, standards) to improve operational consistency and knowledge sharing. \n

\n, * Competitive salary commensurate with experience and qualifications. \n

• Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance. \n

• Paid time off and holidays. \n

• Retirement savings plan options. \n

• Opportunities for career advancement and professional growth
