Job Summary

Sr Network Engineer works on enterprise network spanning datacenters, corporate offices, studio environments, and AWS cloud. Our network is evolving: an AI-driven Juniper/Mist campus fabric, a Palo Alto Networks security edge, and cloud-native connectivity into AWS form the backbone of our next-generation architecture. You will collaborate with engineering teams across the company during design, development, and implementation while researching, evaluating, and implementing emerging technologies, AI-assisted operations, and automation tooling.

What You'll Do

• Design, implement, and operate our Juniper/Mist campus and branch infrastructure.
• Engineer and maintain the Palo Alto Networks security stack.
• Build and support AWS cloud networking — VPC design, Transit Gateway, Direct Connect/VPN, Route 53 — and hybrid connectivity between on‑premises datacenters and cloud, including WAN traffic engineering with BGP, OSPF, and SD‑WAN.
• Automate network configuration, validation, and deployment using Python, APIs, and infrastructure‑as‑code tooling (Terraform, Ansible).
• Modernize network observability — streaming telemetry, flow analysis, and cloud‑native monitoring.
• Maintain a working understanding of emerging architecture trends (next‑generation datacenter, SASE, zero‑trust); conduct proof‑of‑concept exercises, provide design mentorship, and communicate across business, creative, and technology teams.
• 24* Network support for Global network across multiple regions, on‑call
• Hands & feet support for DC and Campus sites.

What You'll Bring

• 6+ years of enterprise network engineering experience across routing, switching, and wireless — with hands‑on depth in Juniper (EX/QFX/SRX, Mist) and/or Cisco (Catalyst, Nexus) platforms, and experience with (or strong readiness for) AI‑driven network operations such as Mist/Marvis.
• Strong knowledge of Internet routing protocols (BGP, OSPF), traffic engineering with BGP and SD‑WAN, and load balancing solutions.
• Hands‑on experience with Palo Alto Networks firewalls, including policy architecture and Panorama; Cisco ASA VPN, Global Protect, F5
• Working experience with AWS networking services — VPC, Transit Gateway, Direct Connect/VPN, Route 53, security groups — and cloud monitoring such as CloudWatch, plus core network services (DNS, DHCP, IPAM).
• Analytical problem‑solving skills across large‑scale distributed platforms, and the ability to communicate and deliver under deadline constraints.

Nice to Have

• Active certifications: AWS Advanced Networking Specialty, or AWS Solutions Architect.
• Prisma Access / SASE deployment experience, or Palo Alto Cloud Identity Engine (CIE) exposure.
• Infrastructure‑as‑code in production — Terraform or Ansible pipelines managing network state.
• Experience in a multi‑studio, multi‑BU entertainment or gaming enterprise environment.
