Our Sr. Cloud Engineer will serve as the technical authority for the network layer of a modern, cloud-first enterprise. In this role, you’ll architect, implement, and optimize core network services across hybrid and multi-cloud environments. You will lead strategy and execution around F5 load balancing, next-generation firewalling (Palo Alto and FortiGate), and cloud interconnect design to ensure scalability, high availability, seamless performance, and uncompromising security.

Duties/Responsibilities:

• Design, build, and optimize cloud-native network architectures across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
• Engineer multi-cloud connectivity — Direct Connect, ExpressRoute, and Interconnect — for high-performance, redundant global networks.
• Own F5 in the cloud (BIG-IP VE / NGINX / Distributed Cloud) for advanced load balancing, traffic management, and security.
• Lead firewall strategy across Palo Alto (Panorama, GlobalProtect) and Fortinet FortiGate for segmentation, VPNs, and advanced threat protection.
• Architect and secure VPCs, VNets, and shared service models — routing, peering, NAT, and private connectivity.
• Integrate Cisco virtual appliances and cloud-native routing solutions for scalable, secure interconnectivity.
• Automate everything — leverage Python, Ansible, or Terraform to enforce consistency and speed up deployments.
• Monitor and optimize performance across hybrid and multi-cloud networks using advanced observability and telemetry tools.
• Lead incident response and root cause analysis for complex network or connectivity issues.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Cloud, Security, and DevOps teams to ensure seamless integration and security alignment.

Required Skills/Abilities:

• 7+ years of experience in network engineering, with 3+ years focused on cloud networking.
• Deep hands-on expertise with Azure (VNets, NSGs, Front Door, peering, route tables, Private DNS).

• Master-level skills in F5 BIG-IP VE, NGINX, or F5 Distributed Cloud.
• Proven experience managing Palo Alto and FortiGate in cloud deployments.
• Advanced routing and security knowledge — BGP, IPSec, GRE, NAT, segmentation, and high-availability designs.
• Scripting and automation skills (Python, Ansible, Terraform) — you treat infrastructure as code.
• Performance and reliability mindset — you know how to design for scale and uptime.

Education and Experience:

• Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Information Technology or related field or equivalent years of experience.
• Proficiency in operating systems and common applications.
