Network Engineering Team Lead Wilmington, DE Monday – Friday 8:00 am – 5:00 pm Remote The Network Engineering Team Lead (Cloud) leads a team of network engineers responsible for designing, implementing, securing, and maintaining the organization's cloud and hybrid network infrastructure. This role combines hands-on technical leadership with people management, ensuring network reliability, scalability, and security across multi-cloud and on-premises environments while mentoring engineers and driving process improvement. Some of the things that you’ll be doing: Team Leadership & Supervision • Supervise, mentor, and develop a team of cloud network engineers, including performance management, scheduling, and career development. • Assign and prioritize project work, incident response, and on-call rotations. • Conduct 1:1s, performance reviews, and support hiring/onboarding of team members. Cloud Network Architecture & Engineering • Design and oversee implementation of secure, scalable network architectures primarily in Azure (VPCs/VNets, subnets, peering, transit gateways, load balancers). • Manage hybrid connectivity solutions (VPN, Direct Connect, ExpressRoute, SD-WAN). • Own network segmentation, routing, DNS, and firewall policy design in cloud environments. Operations & Reliability • Ensure high availability and performance of cloud network infrastructure; lead incident response and root-cause analysis for network outages. • Establish and monitor SLAs/SLOs for network performance and uptime. • Drive automation of network provisioning and configuration management. • Drive Elastic Observability implementation. Security & Compliance • Partner with security teams to enforce network security best practices (zero trust, micro-segmentation, encryption in transit). • Ensure compliance with relevant standards (SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI-DSS as applicable). • Support audits and vulnerability remediation efforts related to network infrastructure. Cross-Functional Collaboration • Work closely with Cloud, DevOps, Security, and application teams to support infrastructure and deployment needs. • Serve as an escalation point for complex network issues. • Communicate network strategy, risks, and roadmap to IT leadership What technical skills, qualifications, and experience do you need? • 7+ years of experience in network engineering, infrastructure engineering, or a related field, with significant experience designing and supporting enterprise-scale cloud and hybrid network environments. • 2+ years of experience leading, supervising, or mentoring network engineering teams, including experience with performance management, work prioritization, and technical development. • Strong hands-on experience with Microsoft Azure networking, including VNets, subnets, peering, routing, load balancing, network security groups, Azure Firewall, DNS, and related cloud networking services. • Proven experience designing and managing hybrid cloud connectivity, including VPN, ExpressRoute, SD-WAN, and connectivity between cloud and on-premises environments. • Strong understanding of core networking concepts and technologies, including TCP/IP, routing, switching, DNS, DHCP, firewalls, network segmentation, VPNs, and load balancing. • Experience with network security and zero-trust principles, including segmentation, encryption, firewall policy, identity-based access, and vulnerability remediation. • Experience with network automation and infrastructure as code, using tools such as Terraform, Ansible, PowerShell, Python, or similar technologies. • Experience with network monitoring and observability, including implementing or supporting tools such as Elastic Observability, Azure Monitor, or comparable platforms. • Demonstrated experience leading incident response, troubleshooting complex network issues, performing root-cause analysis, and driving remediation in high-availability environments. • Experience working cross-functionally with Cloud, DevOps, Security, and application teams, with the ability to communicate complex technical concepts and risks to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. • Experience working in environments subject to security, compliance, and regulatory requirements such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, or PCI-DSS. • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent combination of education and experience. #CSC #CSCCareers #LI-HL1
