• Support high-performance compute environments (HPC/AI workloads where applicable)

• Mentor junior engineers and lead during incident response scenarios

REQUIRED EXPERIENCE

• Experience supporting large-scale data center or enterprise networks

• Strong hands-on experience with Cisco and Arista platforms

• Deep knowledge of BGP, OSPF, EVPN, VXLAN, and MPLS

• Experience with network security technologies (firewalls, proxies, load balancers, segmentation)

• Experience supporting WAN technologies (SD-WAN, segment routing, multi-tenant environments)

• Strong troubleshooting skills including packet analysis and performance optimization

• Experience working in Agile or DevOps environments
