Job description

Site Reliability Engineer (Network Focus)

Location: East Lansing, MI | On-site

Compensation: $90,000 - $115,000 + Annual Bonus & Profit Sharing

Benefits: 100% employer-paid Medical, Dental & Vision insurance, 401(k) with 4.5% company contribution, 17 days PTO plus Federal Holidays

About the Opportunity: Our client is seeking a Site Reliability Engineer with a strong networking background. This is a hands-on infrastructure engineering role supporting a modern hybrid environment spanning Azure and on-premises infrastructure. The organization is in the midst of a large-scale Azure migration, making this an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys designing, automating, and modernizing enterprise infrastructure. While the team supports a broad technology stack, this position is heavily focused on network engineering and Infrastructure as Code (IaC).

What You'll Be Doing As a Site Reliability Engineer

• Design, implement, and support enterprise networking infrastructure including routing, switching, wireless, and perimeter security.
• Manage firewall policies and network segmentation while following established change management practices.
• Support the networking aspects of the organization's Azure migration, including VNets, Network Security Groups, Gateways, and Hybrid Connectivity.
• Build and manage infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools such as Terraform and/or Ansible.
• Work within GitHub-based CI/CD workflows to deploy and manage infrastructure changes.
• Troubleshoot production networking issues across both cloud and on-premises environments.
• Participate in infrastructure projects involving automation, monitoring, performance, and reliability improvements.
• Collaborate closely with the Site Reliability Engineering team on cloud initiatives and infrastructure modernization.
• Participate in an on-call rotation supporting critical production infrastructure.

Preferred Qualifications Of The Site Reliability Engineer

• 7+ years of IT infrastructure experience.
• Strong hands-on networking experience including: Routing & Switching, Enterprise Firewalls, VLANs, BGP / OSPF, NAT. WAN connectivity.
• Experience with Azure networking including: VNets, NSGs, Gateways, Hybrid networking.
• Proven Infrastructure as Code experience using Terraform and/or Ansible.
• Experience managing infrastructure through Git-based workflows (GitHub preferred).
• Experience working in CI/CD-driven infrastructure environments.
• Comfortable working with Linux and Windows infrastructure.
• Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving abilities.

Bonus Qualifications Of The Site Reliability Engineer

• Experience supporting cloud migration initiatives from a networking perspective.
• Experience with Zero Trust networking technologies such as Microsoft Global Secure Access (GSA) or Cloudflare Zero Trust.
• Experience with modern networking platforms including SONiC, VyOS, or similar.
• VMware experience.
• Experience working in highly regulated industries such as financial services.

What Makes This Opportunity Different

• This isn't a traditional network engineering position.
• The organization manages infrastructure through automation and Infrastructure as Code—not manual device configuration. They're looking for someone who can contribute immediately within GitHub-based deployment workflows rather than someone hoping to learn IaC after joining.
• The environment is also undergoing significant modernization, including:
• Enterprise Azure migration
• Greenfield Azure architecture and landing zones
• Transitioning network infrastructure to modern platforms
• Expanding Zero Trust capabilities
• Continued investment in automation and cloud engineering
• You'll join a highly tenured Site Reliability Engineering team where you'll have the opportunity to influence architecture while working with modern infrastructure technologies.
