  • Provide user support and mentor team members, including new colleagues.

Qualifications

  • Proven senior-level experience in advanced routing (BGP, OSPF) and switching technologies (VLAN, STP, EtherChannel, VTP, layer 2/3 protocols), with strong troubleshooting and problem-resolution experience in production environments.
  • Demonstrated ability to design and implement automation solutions with Python and Ansible, including hands-on experience integrating into CI/CD pipelines.
  • Deep practical understanding of Linux environments, with advanced command-line expertise and system-level networking knowledge.
  • Extensive knowledge of infrastructure ecosystems, including storage virtualization and cloud computing (private and public).
  • Ability to explain complex technical concepts clearly to stakeholders at all levels, including executives.
  • Proactive identification of risks and dependencies, escalation of governance or prioritization concerns, and contribution to operational clarity and strategic decisions.
