Job description

Overview

Arhaus was founded in 1986 on a simple idea: Furniture and décor should be sustainably sourced, lovingly made, and built to last. Today, we partner with artisans around the world who share our vision, creating beautiful, heirloom-quality pieces that can be used—and loved—for generations.

The Network Engineer plays a critical role in supporting a luxury retail brand operating in a fast-paced environment. This position is responsible for engineering, maintaining, and optimizing our enterprise network infrastructure across corporate offices, distribution centers, and 100+ retail locations nationwide. The Network Engineer ensures the reliability, security, and scalability of our network—spanning cloud, on-premises, and hybrid environments—while enabling seamless store operations, customer experiences, and internal collaboration. The ideal candidate possesses hands-on technical expertise with modern networking tools and cloud technologies, complemented by strong communication skills to collaborate effectively with executives, field teams, and cross-functional leaders.

We prefer the candidate to be near an Arhaus site location but are open to remote work for the right candidate.

Responsibilities

• Support and maintain a multi-site enterprise network using Cisco, Cisco Meraki, and Palo Alto technologies.
• Engineer and deploy solutions across LAN/WAN, SD-WAN, MPLS, Wi-Fi, VPN, firewalls, cloud, and hybrid environments.
• Configure and maintain routing and switching infrastructure, including BGP, OSPF, VLANs, HSRP, ACLs, NAT, and QoS.
• Manage secure remote access technologies such as Cisco AnyConnect and site-to-site VPN.
• Implement network monitoring, SNMP, syslog, and performance.

Security, Compliance & Reliability

• Strengthen network security posture through segmentation, firewall policies, and Zero-Trust principles.
• Ensure compliance with SOX controls, audit standards, and incident-response processes required in a publicly traded environment.
• Maintain detailed network documentation, diagrams, standards, runbooks, and change-management records.

Cloud, Data Center & Retail Technology Integration

• Support and maintain Microsoft Azure network services, hybrid connectivity models, and cloud security configurations.
• Assist with deploying and maintaining technologies supporting new retail store openings, including switches, APs, POS connectivity, and low-voltage infrastructure.
• Collaborate with Security and Technology teams to deliver integrated, end-to-end connectivity and uptime across all business channels.

Operational & Cross-Functional Support

• Participate in after-hours maintenance and on-call rotations for critical systems support.
• Identify opportunities for network improvements, automation, and lifecycle modernization.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or equivalent technical experience.
• 4+ years of progressive hands-on experience in enterprise networking roles.
• Strong proficiency in packet-level troubleshooting and enterprise network design.
• Experience supporting multi-location environments.
• Experience with Palo Alto or similar enterprise firewall platforms.
• Hands-on experience with Azure networking (VNets, ExpressRoute, VPN Gateway, firewalls, routing).
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to interact with all levels of the business, including executive leadership.
• Ability to support on-call rotation and occasional travel (up to 15%) to corporate, retail, and distribution locations.
• Ability to lift and install networking equipment as needed for store openings and infrastructure refreshes.
