[Hiring] Network Engineer @Tech Talent Link

Role Description

Senior Network Engineer-Network Protocols & Devices role is part of our Agile/Scrum SaaS Solutions Engineering team. This role strengthens the team with deep network expertise, builds automation for network equipment, and helps support our global authentication service: an AWS cloud-based central authentication platform used around the world to effortlessly and securely connect guests and residents (and all their devices) to the internet with an at-home Wi-Fi experience. Our platform serves a variety of markets. From hotels and multi-family residences to campgrounds and college campuses, every day, tens of millions of people benefit from the services we provide.

This is a bridge role for a seasoned network engineer who already programs. You bring deep, hands-on experience running production IP networks—ideally Wi-Fi—including network authentication (RADIUS/AAA) and large, multi-vendor fleets of routers, switches, gateways, and access points, along with a track record of scripting to automate provisioning and troubleshoot issues at scale. You will start as the team's network and device expert and, with mentorship from our senior software engineers, progressively take on the design and development of the software services that control and integrate with that infrastructure. A genuine desire to make that transition into software engineering is essential.

Qualifications

• 8 years of hands-on experience designing, deploying, operating, and troubleshooting production IP networks
• Very strong command of network fundamentals—routing, switching, VLANs, NAT, firewalling, DHCP, DNS, VPNs, and QoS
• Deep understanding of network authentication—RADIUS, AAA workflows, 802.1X, EAP methods, and certificate-based authentication
• Hands-on experience with a variety of routers, switches, gateways, and access points from multiple vendors
• Experience managing a large fleet of network devices in large-scale, multi-site deployments
• Programming and scripting experience applied to network operations
• Strong Linux knowledge and comfort in CLI-driven environments
• Genuine willingness and demonstrated aptitude to transition into software engineering
• Strong desire to help a successful company scale existing cloud-based services

Requirements

• Configure, manage, and troubleshoot a large, multi-vendor fleet of network devices
• Design, operate, and troubleshoot network authentication end to end
• Develop scripts and automation that streamline device provisioning, configuration management, authentication, and device lifecycle management
• Build diagnostic tooling and lead root-cause analysis of complex network and authentication issues
• Serve as the team's subject-matter expert on network protocols and devices
• Progressively take on software engineering work alongside our senior engineers
• Collaborate with other development, product management, and UX team members
• Partner with team members across functions to solve architectural, network-design, and code-design challenges
• Stay informed about network, service-design, and code best practices
• Work within Agile methodology with two-week sprints
• Identify and incorporate security requirements
• Document network standards, runbooks, and troubleshooting guides
• Participate in on-call rotation
• Other duties as assigned
