• Design and lead automated, scalable cloud and hybrid networking solutions using Alkira, Cloudflare, and cloud native services.
• Define automation first network architectures, standards, and guardrails for enterprise environments.
• Build and operate fully automated network deployments using Infrastructure as Code (IaC), CI/CD pipelines, and Git‑based workflows (Terraform, Python, Ansible).
• Design, implement, and operate BGP based routing solutions, including traffic engineering, route control, failover, and convergence across hybrid and multi‑cloud networks.
• Automate network configuration, validation, and routing policy to improve resiliency and reduce manual error.
• Deploy and integrate Alkira for centralized multi‑cloud connectivity, segmentation, service insertion, and traffic steering across WAN, SDWAN, and data center environments.
• Design and automate edge and security services using Cloudflare, including DNS, Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA), WAF, DDoS, and global traffic steering.
• Embed observability, telemetry, and reliability practices into network platforms to enable proactive monitoring, root cause analysis, and operational improvement.
• Collaborate across cloud, security, and application teams while mentoring engineers on modern cloud networking and automation best practices.

• Hands‑on production experience with Alkira (or similar technologies), including automated deployment and lifecycle management.
• Hands‑on experience with Cloudflare (or similar technologies), including DNS, Zero Trust, WAF, and/or edge security services.
• Experience networking across AWS, Azure, and/or GCP.
• Deep, hands‑on experience with BGP routing in enterprise or large‑scale environments.
• Strong expertise in TCI/IP networking, routing policy, path selection, and failover design.
• Proven experience operating and troubleshooting complex routing systems at scale.

• Experience integrating Alkira with SDWAN, firewalls, or service‑chain security platforms.
• Advanced Cloudflare automation using APIs and Terraform providers.
• Experience building self‑service network platforms for internal teams.
• Background in Network Reliability Engineering (NRE) or SRE aligned operating models.
• Relevant certifications or training (preferred, not required), such as AWS Advanced Networking Specialty or automation focused credentials.
• Strong experience with Infrastructure as Code.
• Practical scripting experience using Python or similar languages.
• Experience designing and operating CI/CD pipelines for infrastructure.
• Strong Git‑based workflow and code review practices.
