Associate Infrastructure Engineer - Network Automation; On-site

We are seeking an experienced Infrastructure Engineer specializing in network automation and Net Dev Ops  to help design, build, and establish a new CI/CD automation product for enterprise network infrastructure. This role will create the foundational capabilities needed to automate Day 0 and Day 1 network implementations, as well as repeatable Day 2 configuration changes across a complex, multi-vendor environment. The engineer will work with technologies such as Git Lab, Ansible and Ansible Automation Platform, Net Box, Cisco, Arista, and Gigamon, while identifying practical AI use cases that improve engineering efficiency, configuration quality, testing, and operational decision-making.

This is a product-building role for someone who has created automation frameworks and delivery pipelines, not simply consumed an established automation service.

Truist will not sponsor an applicant for work visa status or employment authorization, nor will we offer any immigration-related support for this position (including, but not limited to H-1B, F-1 OPT, F-1 STEM OPT, F-1 CPT, J-1, TN-1 or TN-2, E-3, O-1, or future sponsorship for U.S. lawful permanent residence status.)
