Most of the time, you will work as part of a team; however, there may be smaller projects that you complete alone but you will always have the team to support.

You will be responsible for implementing and setting up solutions before handing them over to the operational teams. This means there is no maintenance or ongoing operational work in this role, allowing you to fully concentrate on delivering high‑quality solutions with minimal distractions. You’ll join a vibrant and knowledgeable group of network specialists that designs, configures, and implements network solutions for both new and existing customers. Whether working on private, public, or hybrid cloud solutions for offshore and onshore clients, your role will have a real impact from day one.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, configure, and implement advanced network solutions
• Plan and deliver new implementations, upgrades, and pilots
• Work with routers, switches, firewalls, and wireless access points
• Collaborate with product teams on innovative technical solutions
• Work closely with vendors and customers for smooth project delivery and operations
• Support our culture of knowledge sharing and help mentor junior colleagues

What You Bring

• Proven experience within network technology, ideally at least 7‑10 years.
• Proficiency in designing, implementing, and managing complex network infrastructures.
• Vendor‑specific knowledge of CheckPoint and Cisco. Additional Juniper and Palo Alto exposure is beneficial.
• In‑depth knowledge of routing protocols such as OSPF, BGP as well as switching technologies.
• Understanding of wireless networking standards and technologies.
• Proficiency with network monitoring tools such as Catalyst Center, Zabbix and NetFlow.
• Experience in troubleshooting and implementation of LAN, WAN, WLAN, VPN firewalls, WLC, identity solutions (Cisco ISE) etc.
• Experience with 3rd line Customer Support.

If we’re lucky, you also have experience with:

• Solution design and architecture
• Automating network tasks and improve efficiency
• Cloud networking solutions and services from providers like Azure, AWS or Google Cloud
• Technical sales
• Project delivery
