Sr. Network Engineer

This is a senior individual contributor opportunity for an experienced network engineer looking to expand into software engineering. You’ll work on large-scale, distributed network environments within a growing cloud-based technology organization. The role combines hands-on network architecture, troubleshooting, authentication, automation, and device management with increasingly deeper software development responsibilities. You’ll initially serve as a network subject matter expert while partnering closely with experienced software engineers. Over time, you’ll take greater ownership of software services that interact with and control network infrastructure. This fully remote role offers the opportunity to build toward a hybrid network and software engineering skill set in an Agile/Scrum environment.

• 8+ years of hands-on experience designing, deploying, operating, and troubleshooting production IP networks.
• Strong knowledge of routing, switching, VLANs, NAT, firewalls, DHCP, DNS, VPNs, QoS, and other core networking technologies.
• Proven ability to troubleshoot complex networking issues across Layers 2–7.
• Deep practical experience with RADIUS, AAA, 802.1X, EAP, certificate-based authentication, and related network access technologies.
• Experience supporting multiple network hardware and software vendors across routers, switches, gateways, and wireless infrastructure.
• Experience managing large fleets of network devices across multi-site or distributed environments.
• Experience with centralized configuration, monitoring, firmware management, and network device lifecycle processes.
• Strong programming and scripting experience applied to network operations and automation, particularly with Python, Bash, network scripting, and REST APIs.
• Strong Linux skills and confidence working in command-line environments.
• Genuine interest in transitioning from network-focused engineering into broader software engineering responsibilities.
• Willingness to adopt modern software development practices including version control, code reviews, automated testing, CI/CD, and cloud technologies.
• Strong communication, collaboration, organization, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to work effectively in a remote Agile environment.
• Nice-to-have experience includes large-scale Wi-Fi/WLAN deployments, high-density wireless environments, cloud-managed wireless systems, wireless RF fundamentals, professional software engineering, RESTful API development, Git, CI/CD, AWS or other major cloud platforms, infrastructure-as-code, serverless architecture, containerized services, or technologies such as C#/.NET and SQL.
• A bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or a related field and networking certifications such as CCNA, CCNP, CWNA, or equivalent vendor certifications are advantageous.
• Must be legally authorized to work in the United States without current or future sponsorship. The role is limited to U.S.-based candidates and does not offer visa sponsorship.
