Diagnose and resolve complex network issues across the TCP/IPv4/v6 stack in large-scale distributed environments
Optimize traffic engineering, ECMP, and load balancing strategies to ensure efficient utilization of network resources
Implement and operate MPLS-based technologies, including L3 VPNs and segment routing (SR-MPLS, SRv6)
Collaborate with hardware, systems, and software teams to integrate networking with compute and storage infrastructure
Automate network operations and workflows to improve reliability, scalability, and operational efficiency
Ensure high availability and performance of production networks through proactive monitoring and continuous improvement
What we expect you to have:
Expert-level knowledge (CCIE/JNCIE or equivalent) in MPLS, routing, and switching for service provider and data center networks
Strong experience with Ethernet switching, VXLAN, and modern cloud overlay networking technologies
Deep expertise in routing protocols including BGP and IS-IS
Hands-on experience with segment routing (SR-MPLS, SRv6), L3 MPLS VPNs, and ECMP-based traffic balancing
Proven experience designing and documenting large-scale network architectures
Experience developing and executing network testing strategies and validating vendor solutions
Strong troubleshooting skills across the TCP/IPv4/v6 stack in CLOS-based data center environments
Solid understanding of network hardware architecture, QoS mechanisms, and packet processing pipelines
Hands-on experience with network equipment from vendors such as Juniper, Arista, Huawei, and Mellanox
