TL;DR · Vice President, Global Network Engineering

The Vice President, Global Network Engineering leads the strategy, engineering, modernization, and reliability of global network services within the Global Infrastructure, Engineering & Operations organization. This executive oversees the network foundation connecting cloud, on-premises, data center, corporate, partner, and customer-facing environments while driving transformation toward automated, service-oriented networking. Key responsibilities include defining the global roadmap for LAN, WAN, and internet edge, simplifying complexity through standardization, and establishing a service-based operating model. The role requires expertise in SD-WAN, routing, switching, DNS, and load balancing across GCP and AWS environments. Candidates must utilize network observability, telemetry, and infrastructure-as-code to improve reliability. This position solves the technical challenge of maintaining secure, scalable, and highly available connectivity across complex hybrid and multi-cloud platforms in a highly regulated environment.

What you'll do

  • Define and execute the global network strategy, architecture, and roadmap for all enterprise environments.
  • Drive the modernization of network services for hybrid and multi-cloud platforms including GCP and AWS.
  • Simplify network complexity through standardization, segmentation, and architectural modernization initiatives.
  • Establish a service-based operating model with defined ownership, performance measures, and support models.
  • Strengthen network reliability through disciplined incident management, change governance, and root cause analysis.
  • Advance network observability and automation using telemetry, event correlation, and AI-enabled capabilities.
  • Integrate security, compliance, and policy-driven governance into all network designs and operational practices.
  • Manage network capacity planning, technology lifecycles, vendor partnerships, and cost optimization strategies.

What we're looking for

  • 15+ years of progressive experience leading large-scale enterprise network engineering, architecture, or infrastructure organizations within complex global environments.
  • Deep expertise designing, implementing, and operating global network services across data centers, cloud platforms, internet connectivity, and corporate networks.
  • Demonstrated experience developing and executing technology modernization strategies within hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
  • Proven success leading large-scale engineering organizations and building high-performing teams across multiple geographies.
  • Experience operating within highly regulated environments while balancing security, resiliency, compliance, risk management, and business growth objectives.
  • Expertise in enterprise networking technologies including LAN, WAN, SD-WAN, routing, switching, DNS, load balancing, and network segmentation.
  • Strong knowledge of cloud networking architectures and connectivity patterns across GCP, AWS, and hybrid infrastructure environments.
  • Experience with network observability, telemetry, monitoring, event management, and performance analytics platforms.
  • Experience implementing network automation, infrastructure-as-code, policy-as-code, and AI-assisted operational practices.
  • Experience implementing service ownership models and service-based operating frameworks within infrastructure organizations (preferred).
  • Familiarity with AIOps, intelligent automation, predictive monitoring, and advanced operational analytics (preferred).
  • Experience leading network transformation initiatives associated with cloud migration, digital modernization, and infrastructure simplification (preferred).
  • Strong background in vendor strategy, contract negotiations, financial governance, and technology investment planning (preferred).
  • Experience developing executive dashboards and reporting focused on service health, operational performance, risk management, and modernization progress (preferred).
