  • Translate stakeholder requirements into technical designs that align with security and compliance standards.

What we're looking for

  • Deep understanding of networking fundamentals including BGP, TCP/IP, OSI model, routing protocols, and firewall/ACL concepts.
  • Hands-on experience with AWS networking services such as Transit Gateway, Cloud WAN, Direct Connect (DX), and VPC routing.
  • Experience in designing and supporting hybrid DNS architectures using AWS Route 53 Resolver.
  • Proficiency in programming languages including Python, Shell/Power scripting, Groovy, and automation frameworks like Ansible, CloudFormation, or Terraform.
  • Familiarity with DevOps tools, CI/CD pipelines, and Linux/Unix operating systems.
