Senior Network Engineer

Note: Need Immediate joiners or who join within 15 days Job Title: Networking Engineer – WLAN, WAN, LAN, and Cloud Networking (AWS/GCP/OCI) Job Summary: We are seeking a highly skilled Networking Engineer with expertise in designing, implementing, and managing enterprise-grade wireless (WLAN), local area (LAN), wide area (WAN), and cloud-based networking solutions. The ideal candidate will be responsible for architecting scalable, secure, and high-performance network infrastructures across on-premises and cloud environments, with a strong focus on integration with AWS, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), or Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). This role requires a deep understanding of modern networking technologies, automation, and cloud networking services to support evolving business needs. Key Responsibilities: - Design, implement, and maintain robust WLAN (Wireless LAN), LAN, and WAN architectures for enterprise environments, ensuring high availability, performance, and security. - Develop and manage cloud-native networking solutions on AWS, GCP, or OCI, including Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs), subnets, route tables, security groups, firewalls, and transit gateways. - Configure and optimize wireless networks using enterprise-grade controllers (e.g., Cisco Wireless LAN Controller, Aruba, Juniper Mist) and access points to support seamless mobility and secure connectivity. - Implement and manage SD-WAN solutions to improve WAN performance, reduce latency, and ensure cost-effective connectivity across multiple sites and cloud services. - Collaborate with security, systems, and cloud engineering teams to integrate network solutions with identity management, zero-trust frameworks, and threat detection systems. - Automate network provisioning and configuration using tools such as Ansible, Terraform, Python, or vendor-specific APIs to ensure consistency and reduce manual errors. - Monitor, troubleshoot, and resolve complex network issues across hybrid environments, using tools like SolarWinds, PRTG, Wireshark, or cloud-native monitoring (e.g., AWS CloudWatch, GCP Operations Suite). - Develop comprehensive network documentation, including topology diagrams, IP addressing schemes, configuration standards, and disaster recovery plans. - Stay current with emerging networking trends, including SASE, intent-based networking, network observability, and cloud-native networking services. - Support network migration projects from legacy infrastructure to modern cloud and hybrid architectures. - Participate in capacity planning, performance tuning, and scalability assessments to align network infrastructure with business growth. Requirements: - Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Electrical Engineering, or a related field. - Minimum 5 years of experience in network engineering, with proven expertise in WLAN, LAN, and WAN design and implementation. - Hands-on experience with cloud networking platforms: AWS (VPC, Direct Connect, Transit Gateway, Route 53), GCP (VPC, Cloud Interconnect, Cloud Router), or OCI (Virtual Cloud Network, FastConnect, Load Balancer). - Strong knowledge of routing protocols (BGP, OSPF), switching technologies (VLANs, STP, EtherChannel), and wireless standards (802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax). - Experience with SD-WAN solutions (e.g., Cisco SD-WAN, VMware Velocloud, Fortinet, Palo Alto Prisma Access). - Proficiency in network security concepts: firewalls, intrusion detection/prevention systems (IDS/IPS), segmentation, and secure remote access (e.g., VPN, Zero Trust Network Access). - Experience with network automation tools: Terraform, Ansible, Python scripting, or vendor-specific APIs. - Familiarity with network monitoring and analytics tools (e.g., SolarWinds, PRTG, Splunk, Wireshark). - Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to analyze and resolve complex network performance and connectivity issues. - Excellent communication and collaboration skills to work effectively with cross-functional teams. Nice to Have: - Certifications such as CCNP Enterprise, AWS Certified Advanced Networking – Specialty, Google Professional Cloud Network Engineer, or Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Networking Associate. - Experience with network virtualization (e.g., VXLAN, NVGRE) and overlay networks. - Exposure to network function virtualization (NFV) and cloud-native network services. - Understanding of DevOps and CI/CD practices in network provisioning.
