Network Engineer: Infra Build, Security & Automation

Kraken; Sweden; On-site; SEK 381,000 - 524,000; Full time

Job summary

Kraken is seeking an experienced Network Engineer to design and build our data-center and network infrastructure globally. You will stand up and evolve fabrics, implement zero-trust security, and coordinate with engineering and security teams to ship secure features.

You will automate repetitive tasks using IaC and tooling, and own operational reliability across on-site data centers and cloud environments. A strong background in firewall, routing, and data-center operations is essential.

Qualifications

• 2+ years of network engineering with a security-minded approach.
• Hands-on with firewalls (e.g., Palo Alto Networks / PAN-OS / Panorama).
• Hands-on data-center / physical infrastructure work: racking, cabling, power, cross-connects, and hardware install.
• Working knowledge of switching (VLANs) and routing (OSPF, BGP, ECMP, PBR).
• Exposure to public cloud networking (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and hybrid connectivity.
• Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code / automation (Terraform, Ansible).
• Comfort with VPN / remote-access connectivity.
• Bias for automating repetitive work and strong operational ownership.

Responsibilities

• Design and build data centers end-to-end: cages, racks, PDU/power, structured cabling, hardware install.
• Deliver connectivity - circuits, dark fiber, and DIA with vendor coordination.
• Stand up and evolve data-center fabrics (Cisco ACI and HPE Juniper Apstra).
• Design, implement, and defend a zero-trust network with central firewalls.
• Implement enterprise network access controls (RBAC, least-privilege).
• Partner with Engineering and IT Security to ensure secure, built-in security in features.
• Serve as first responder to high volume infrastructure requests; manage queue.
• Monitor and maintain physical infrastructure and cloud environments; respond to incidents.
• Manage infrastructure as code at scale; build tooling to reduce toil.
