Job Requirements Key Responsibilities: Cloud Architecture & Design: Design, implement, and manage secure virtual networks, VPCs, subnets, and routing protocols within cloud environments (AWS/GCP/Azure).Infrastructure Management: Oversee connectivity solutions including VPNs, Direct Connect/Interconnect, and Load Balancing to ensure robust communication between on-premise data centers and cloud platforms. Network Security: Implement and maintain network security controls, including Firewalls (WAF, NGFW), Network Access Control Lists (NACLs), Security Groups, and Intrusion Detection/Prevention systems. Optimization & Automation: Utilize Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools like Terraform or CloudFormation to automate network provisioning and configuration management. Troubleshooting: Perform root cause analysis and resolve complex network latency, connectivity, and performance issues across hybrid environments. Collaboration: Partner with DevOps, Security, and Cloud Architecture teams to align network strategies with application requirements and compliance standards. Required Qualifications & Skills: Experience: 6+ years of hands-on experience in Network Engineering, with at least 3 years specifically focused on Cloud Infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure). Technical Proficiency: Strong understanding of TCP/IP, DNS, BGP, OSPF, and routing/switching. Experience with Cloud Networking services (e.g., VPC, Transit Gateway, Cloud Load Balancing, Private Service Connect). Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Proven ability to manage network infrastructure using Terraform, Ansible, or similar automation tools. Security: Solid grasp of network security best practices in the cloud (Zero Trust architecture, IAM roles for networking, encryption in transit).Tools & Scripting: Proficiency in scripting (Python or Bash) for network automation and troubleshooting. Methodologies: Experience working in an Agile/DevOps environment using CI/CD pipelines and version control systems (Git/GitHub). Certifications: Relevant Cloud Networking certifications (e.g., AWS Certified Advanced Networking, Google Professional Cloud Network Engineer, or CCNA/CCNP)
