Network Operations Engineer

- I will operate in a fast-paced environment alongside a team of specialized engineers, providing engineering and implementation efforts for integration, modernization, and new installations for our partner nations and allies in Southern and European Command regions. - I will install networking equipment and cabling in complex data center settings. - I will provide operational and integration support for a multi-vendor infrastructure, including various routers, switches, vendor firewalls, and servers. - I will assist senior engineers with routing and switching support while having a solid understanding of designing, testing, and implementing dynamic routing protocols (both IGP and EGP), along with a core understanding of layer two technologies and familiarity with major vendor command-line interfaces (Cisco IOS, JunOS, PanOS). - I will configure, install, and manage routers, switches, firewalls, intrusion detection systems, virtual local area networks (VLANs), multi-protocol label switching (MPLS), IP routing protocols (OSPF, BGP, EIGRP), IP multicast, and quality of service (QoS) under the guidance of senior engineers and network architects. - I will ensure the appropriate routing protocols are applied to optimize network performance from the Local Area Network (LAN) through to the Wide Area Network (WAN), Campus Area Network (CAN), and Storage Area Network (SAN), as well as the data center. - I will assist clients in identifying design objectives, technical specifications, performance standards, and interoperability specifications to ensure system design fulfills all stakeholder requirements. - I will document changes to networks and systems, alongside all required checklists within the configuration baseline. - I am expected to have the skills and understanding of network drawing and the use of productivity tools (such as Visio, Lucid, AutoCAD, etc.).
