Job Summary

As a Cloud Network Engineer on the PublicCloud team, you will be a critical enabler of Citi's cloud transformationjourney, with a specialized focus on designing, implementing, and managingcomplex network architectures across our multi-cloud environment (AWS andGoogle Cloud) and integrating them seamlessly with our on-premiseinfrastructure. Our team is dedicated to evolving Citi's application and datahosting environments into an integrated, hybrid multi-cloud ecosystem. We focuson building, automating, and optimizing the foundational cloud networkinfrastructure and services that empower developers to innovate rapidly andsecurely. In this role, you will design, implement, and maintain scalable,resilient, and secure cloud network platforms and solutions, embodying a"you build it, you run it" philosophy to ensure operationalexcellence.

Key Responsibilities

• Multi-Cloud Network Architecture & Engineering: Design, implement, and manage advanced network architecturesacross AWS and GCP, including VPC/VNet design, subnetting, routing, IPaddressing schemes, and network segmentation.
• Hybrid Cloud Connectivity: Establish and maintain robust, high-performance, and secure connectivitybetween on-premise data centers and public cloud environments usingtechnologies such as AWS Direct Connect, Google Cloud Interconnect, VPNs,and SD-WAN integration.
• Network as Code (NaC) & IaC: Develop, maintain, and optimize cloud network infrastructure usingInfrastructure as Code (IaC) tools such as Terraform, CloudFormation(AWS), and Deployment Manager (GCP). Create reusable modules andblueprints for standardized network deployments.
• Advanced Network Services: Configure and manage critical network services including DNS (Route 53,Cloud DNS), Load Balancing (ALB, NLB, Cloud Load Balancing), API Gateways,and Content Delivery Networks (CDNs).
• Network Automation & Orchestration: Automate the provisioning, configuration, and management ofcloud network resources and services. Develop scripts and tools (e.g.,Python, Go, Bash) to streamline network operations, ensure consistency,and improve efficiency.
