Who we are

Infinite Campus is an educational software company that helps K12 school districts manage their day-to-day operations. We’ve been around for over 29 years and are the most trusted name in student information. Our customers include school districts across the United States and our products support more than eight million students.

What you’ll do

The Network Systems Engineer, Sr. will provide advanced technical expertise and leadership in the design, implementation, optimization, and continued evolution of Infinite Campus enterprise network infrastructure. This role will lead complex network engineering initiatives across LAN/WAN, datacenter, wireless, network security, and multi-datacenter environments, ensuring network solutions meet the scalability, availability, performance, and security requirements of Infinite Campus products and customer commitments. They will serve as a technical resource for resolving complex, high-impact network challenges, leading critical incident investigations, coordinating post-incident reviews, and developing sustainable solutions that improve network resilience and operational effectiveness. The Network Systems Engineer, Sr. will drive the network automation roadmap by identifying opportunities to eliminate manual processes, prioritizing improvements based on risk and business value, and advancing Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and Configuration as Code (CaC) as standard engineering practices. They will evaluate and introduce AI-powered technologies, including AI-assisted troubleshooting, AIOps, and automated documentation, while maintaining appropriate security and operational safeguards. Working collaboratively with engineering teams, technical leaders, and business stakeholders, this individual will provide architectural guidance, document technical decisions, mentor other engineers, contribute to hiring and technical evaluations, and help establish network solutions and engineering practices that support the long-term needs of Infinite Campus.

Who you are

You will be a highly experienced, forward-thinking technical professional who combines deep network engineering expertise with strong problem-solving abilities, sound architectural judgment, and a commitment to advancing engineering excellence. This individual will be comfortable taking ownership of complex technical challenges, leading critical incident investigations, and making informed decisions that balance security, scalability, reliability, and long-term operational needs. They will demonstrate the ability to look beyond immediate technical issues, evaluate architectural tradeoffs, and identify opportunities to improve network design, automation, and engineering practices across the organization. The ideal candidate will be a trusted technical resource who enjoys mentoring other engineers, sharing expertise, fostering collaboration, and influencing technical direction through clear communication and well-supported recommendations. They will embrace innovation, emerging technologies, and continuous improvement while maintaining a practical understanding of business priorities and customer impact. Success in this role requires someone who can independently lead complex engineering initiatives, establish consistent technical practices, and help guide the evolution of Infinite Campus network infrastructure through strong technical leadership and cross-functional partnership.

The Network Systems Engineer, Sr. will possess extensive technical knowledge and demonstrated experience designing, implementing, securing, and optimizing complex enterprise network environments, including advanced routing and switching, datacenter fabrics, wireless networking, WAN/SD-WAN, network security, and cloud networking technologies. They should demonstrate strong proficiency with enterprise networking platforms, routing protocols, network architecture patterns, firewall and VPN technologies, network segmentation, and infrastructure capacity and resilience planning. The right candidate will bring advanced network automation capabilities, including experience developing and maintaining solutions using Ansible, Terraform, Jinja2, Python, Bash, source control, and network platform APIs. They should possess a strong understanding of Infrastructure as Code (IaC), Configuration as Code (CaC), automation testing, code review practices, and the ability to establish scalable and consistent engineering standards. Deep expertise in at least one network engineering domain, along with the ability to evaluate architectural alternatives, understand design tradeoffs, and solve complex technical problems, is important for success. They should also demonstrate strong incident leadership, technical documentation, stakeholder communication, mentoring, and collaboration skills, including the ability to communicate architectural decisions through design documents and Architecture Decision Records. Experience evaluating AI-assisted engineering tools and applying emerging technologies to improve network operations will further support success in this role. An associate's degree or higher in Information Technology, Computer Networking, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent hands‑on network engineering experience, is expected.
