Sr. Cloud Engineer

What You’ll Do:

• Design, build, and optimize cloud-native network architectures across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
• Engineer multi-cloud connectivity — Direct Connect, ExpressRoute, and Interconnect — for high-performance, redundant global networks.
• Own F5 in the cloud (BIG-IP VE / NGINX / Distributed Cloud) for advanced load balancing, traffic management, and security.
• Lead firewall strategy across Palo Alto (Panorama, GlobalProtect) and Fortinet FortiGate for segmentation, VPNs, and advanced threat protection.
• Architect and secure VPCs, VNets, and shared service models — routing, peering, NAT, and private connectivity.
• Integrate Cisco virtual appliances and cloud-native routing solutions for scalable, secure interconnectivity.
• Automate everything — leverage Python, Ansible, or Terraform to enforce consistency and speed up deployments.
• Monitor and optimize performance across hybrid and multi-cloud networks using advanced observability and telemetry tools.
• Lead incident response and root cause analysis for complex network or connectivity issues.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Cloud, Security, and DevOps teams to ensure seamless integration and security alignment.

What You Bring:

• 7+ years of experience in network engineering, with 3+ years focused on cloud networking.
• Deep hands-on expertise with Azure (VNets, NSGs, Front Door, peering, route tables, Private DNS).
• Strong experience with AWS (VPCs, Transit Gateway, Route 53) and GCP (VPCs, Interconnect, Cloud DNS) .
• Master-level skills in F5 BIG-IP VE, NGINX, or F5 Distributed Cloud.
• Proven experience managing Palo Alto and FortiGate in cloud deployments.
• Advanced routing and security knowledge — BGP, IPSec, GRE, NAT, segmentation, and high-availability designs.
• Scripting and automation skills (Python, Ansible, Terraform) — you treat infrastructure as code.
• Performance and reliability mindset — you know how to design for scale and uptime.

Bonus Points:

• Certifications: F5 CTS, Palo Alto PCNSE, Fortinet NSE, Cisco CCNP/CCIE, AWS/Azure/GCP Network Specialty.
• Experience with SASE, Zero Trust, or Cloud Security Posture Management frameworks.
• Strong background in large-scale network transformations or multi-cloud migrations.

What Makes You a Fit:

• You build secure, scalable, self-healing networks that never go down.
• You’re cloud-native to the core — no rack, no cable, no problem.
• You can visualize complex architectures and explain them simply.
• You stay calm in the fire and find elegant fixes under pressure.
• You’re hands-on, proactive, and proud of running a network that just works — flawlessly.

This is a hands-on, high-impact engineering role for someone who wants to own the cloud network stack end to end — across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
You’re not here to maintain; you’re here to elevate.
