Network Engineering Architect, Director serves as a senior technical leader responsible for defining and executing the enterprise network architecture strategy across global on-premises and cloud environments. You will lead governance forums, establish reference patterns, and drive the transition toward "network-as-code" by integrating Infrastructure as Code (IaC), CI/CD pipelines, and AI-driven tools to ensure automated, resilient, and secure operations. The role involves designing identity-based segmentation, developing self-service capabilities via APIs, and managing complex routing, switching, and load balancing systems. You will utilize Python, Bash, and machine learning for network analytics while mentoring a global team of engineers. This position addresses the challenge of modernizing traditional networking into a programmable, developer-friendly platform within a highly regulated financial environment where high performance, security, and auditability are paramount to supporting mission-critical services.
