• Collaborate with internal and external teams, as well as industry partners, to ensure that customer and business requirements are met while upholding our Service Level Agreement (SLA).
• Leverage and expand your expertise in large-scale networking across multiple cloud platforms, driving efforts to enhance the resilience, performance, and security of our networking solutions.
• Develop reliable, scalable, and high-performance network designs and produce design documents and implementation plans for networking solutions across multiple cloud environments.
• Propose modifications and improvements to network technologies based on existing and emerging industry knowledge to contribute to the design, implementation, and operation of reliable, scalable, and high-performance networks.
• Analyze traffic patterns across complete network infrastructures, including multi-cloud environments, to identify needs to modify capacity.
• Continuously review the network architecture to identify risks and determine improvements, as well as measures to ensure the highest network security across all cloud platforms.
• Operate networking solutions with the highest quality bar and invest in developing and deploying robust automation tools that increase engineering efficiency, minimize operational burden, and reduce human errors, while optimizing the utilization of infrastructure and resources.
• Define telemetry analytics and quality metrics to drive new data collection instrumentation that can improve the detection and troubleshooting of problems.
• Troubleshoot and repair complex multi-layer incident issues.
• Stay updated with industry trends and best practices in cloud networking, security, and automation.
• Champion best practices for infrastructure as code and network automation, driving improvements in our overall networking strategy.
