• Implement and support secure network connectivity between on-premises data centers and Azure/AWS cloud workloads (Site-to-Site VPNs, ExpressRoute, AWS Direct Connect).
• Configure, maintain, and troubleshoot firewalls, routing, switching, and load-balancing systems.
• Manage cloud network services including Azure VNets, VNG (Virtual Network Gateway), NSGs, AWS VPCs, TGW, NACLs, security groups, and VPN Gateways.
• Ensure high-availability, redundancy, and performance of network infrastructure.
• Conduct security assessments, enforce network policies, and support compliance requirements.
• Create technical documentation, network diagrams, and SOPs.
• Provide Tier-3 support for network-related issues and participate in on-call rotation as needed.
• Work cross-functionally with cloud, security, DevOps, and infrastructure teams.

Skills

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• 5+ years hands-on experience in network engineering and VPN deployment.
• Expert in configuring and troubleshooting policy-based and route-based VPNs.
• Proven experience with Azure and AWS cloud networking architectures.
• Strong knowledge of IP routing protocols (BGP, OSPF, static routing) and network security technologies.
• Experience with firewalls (e.g., Fortinet, Palo Alto, Cisco ASA) and Layer-2/Layer-3 switching.
• Understanding of SD-WAN, NAT, DNS, DHCP, IPsec, SSL VPN, VLANs, and Zero-Trust network principles.
• Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform, CloudFormation) is a plus.

Relevant certifications preferred:

• Azure Network Engineer Associate
• AWS Advanced Networking Specialty
• CCNP / Fortinet NSE / Palo Alto PCNSE (advantageous)
