Description du poste

Every network runs on a register of names and addresses. If that register is wrong, nothing else works — and nobody notices until it breaks.

You would keep that register right for a multinational defence network, working on-site at Braine-l'Alleud, Belgium under the section head responsible for names and addressing.

What you would be doing

• Closing tickets inside the agreed service levels
• Owning the quality and integrity of the data itself
• Registering and publishing the names, addresses and metadata the networks depend on
• Extracting, de-duplicating, matching and fusing data, then curating the master records through their life
• Assigning and registering addressing and enterprise names against infrastructure designs
• Helping project teams fold names and addresses of configuration items into the central repositories
• Automating configuration data for partner and mission-network affiliates
• Automating how network telemetry is collected and ingested

What you would bring

• Higher vocational training in a relevant discipline with three years of related experience, or a secondary qualification with five
• At least three years as a network technician, or in a DDI or IP address management role
• Familiarity with network automation or another scripting or coding language
• Confident subnetting in both IPv4 and IPv6
• Practical DNS, IP and routing protocols — OSPF, RIP, IS-IS, BGP and the rest
• Evaluating and processing change requests
• Auditing device configurations against the registered baseline

Nice to have

• Address management on military networks, or hands-on use of an IPAM database
• Wide-area and local-area networking, firewalls, and an awareness of MPLS and multicast
• An industry certification such as CCNA DevNet or JNCIA, or the experience to match
• Writing documentation and manuals for a technical readership
• li>The RIPE NCC local internet registry course
• Work in an international environment with both military and civilian colleagues

Why this one is worth a look

It is a rare mix: disciplined data stewardship on one side, real automation work on the other, on a network where the addressing genuinely matters.
