- Lead migration strategies from traditional MPLS architectures to modern SRv6-based environments.
- Oversee the deployment, configuration, and optimization of high-scale routing platforms across multi-vendor environments.
- Analyze network performance, conduct capacity planning, and ensure optimal network reliability and efficiency.
- Troubleshoot complex network latency, path selection, routing, and connectivity issues.
- Implement advanced traffic engineering solutions to optimize network paths and resource utilization.
- Provide technical leadership, mentorship, and guidance to junior network engineers.
- Serve as the primary escalation point for complex network design and operational challenges.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to align network architecture with business and service requirements.
Required Qualifications
- Experience: 10+ years of comprehensive experience in advanced network routing and infrastructure.
- Routing Protocols: Strong expertise in BGP, OSPF, and IS-IS.
- Segment Routing: Minimum 10 years of hands-on experience implementing, managing, and troubleshooting Segment Routing technologies.
- SRv6: At least 1 year of dedicated, hands-on experience designing and deploying SRv6 in production environments.
- Certifications: Must hold a current CCDP (Cisco Certified Design Professional) or CCIE (Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert) certification.
- Troubleshooting: Proven ability to diagnose and resolve complex network performance, latency, pathing, and connectivity issues.
- Network Architecture: Experience designing and optimizing large-scale, carrier-grade network infrastructures.
Desired Skills
- Knowledge of network automation and programmability using Python, Ansible, NETCONF, and YANG.
- Strong understanding of Traffic Engineering (TE) and Network Slicing.
- Experience with multi-vendor routing platforms and next-generation networking technologies.
- Excellent analytical, problem-solving, communication, and technical leadership skills.
- Ability to translate complex technical requirements into scalable network solutions aligned with business objectives.
