- Integrate automation workflows with platforms such as Cisco ISE, DNA Center, Palo Alto Prisma SD-WAN, and Zscaler.
- Build CI/CD pipelines for network changes and configuration validation.
- Develop and maintain source-controlled templates and playbooks for repeatable deployments.
- Support network observability and telemetry by automating data collection and reporting.
- Participate in the design and implementation of secure, scalable network architectures.
- Provide mentorship and training to traditional network engineers on automation tools and practices.
- Document automation processes, standards, and best practices.
- On Call Rotation (PIC) is required
Qualifications:
- Minimum of 5 years in global enterprise network environments. 3+ years of experience in network automation and scripting.
- Proficiency in Python, Ansible, Terraform, and RESTful APIs. Familiarity with cloud networking (AWS, Azure, or GCP). Experience with version control systems (e.g., Git) and CI/CD pipelines. Experience with NetDevOps, event-driven automation, or network testing frameworks.
- Exposure to containerized environments (Docker, Kubernetes) is a plus.
- Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Information Systems, or a related discipline. Equivalent experience and/or alternative qualifications will be considered.
- Experience with Cisco, Meraki, Palo Alto, Netscaler, Zscaler, or similar platforms.
The Company is an equal employment opportunity employer.
