  • Proven experience in designing, deploying, and operating high-speed Ethernet networks, including technologies such as VLAN, LACP, MLAG, BGP, OSPF, EVPN, and VXLAN
  • Strong knowledge of WAN and long-haul technologies, including MPLS, BGP, IPsec, GRE, SD-WAN, carrier Ethernet, and associated routing protocols
  • Solid understanding of data centre networking topologies and best practices for front-end / infrastructure networks
  • Strong Python or Bash scripting skills for automation and tooling
  • Strong optics and hardware knowledge to assist with BOM design, cabling standards, and troubleshooting
  • Experience working in fast-paced operational environments with a focus on reliability and automation

Nice to Have

  • Hands-on experience with Arista (EOS) and/or Nokia networking platforms
  • Experience with large-scale DCI, long-haul optical transport, or carrier circuit management
