DescriptionOur client is currently embarking on two large scaled initiatives:
One Epic and One IT. These roles are available in order to prepare each environment's networking infrastructure in order to begin the transition to one common platform of Epic. Additionally, they will be combing both IT environments and organizations (One IT).
Their current Network Team is focused on the one IT initiative, so these contractors will be back filling their duties in which they prepare their infrastructure for One Epic.

Summary:
We are seeking three Network Engineers to support critical infrastructure initiatives across the two environments that the client has as part of the broader One Epic program. These roles will provide handson support for hardware refreshes, SDWAN rollouts, and engineering backfill, ensuring network stability and modernization across multiple sites.
Each engineer will be aligned to a specific demand, with opportunities to support both sites as workload and project timelines require. This is an onsite role with an anticipated start timeframe of July/August. If the days work does not require the resource to be onsite, they can work remote but this is onsite for the majority.
