Network Engineer

Network Engineer

Vantage Point Solutions is a growing, technology-driven consulting and engineering firm serving broadband, power, and financial industries nationwide. We are seeking a skilled Network Engineer to join our team. This full-time position, available remote or in-office, supports internet service providers and broadband clients across the country and is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-paced consulting environment, enjoys solving complex network challenges, and is passionate about delivering well-designed, reliable network solutions.

As a Network Engineer, you will serve as a technical lead and trusted advisor on network design and implementation projects for clients in the service provider space. This role is centered on engineering outcomes such as assessments, architecture, deployments, migrations, upgrades, and network modernization initiatives across ISP and broadband environments. While some advanced operational support and escalation assistance may be required, the primary focus of this position is project-based engineering work rather than day-to-day support.

This role is well-suited for a mid-level engineer with strong experience in IP routing, Ethernet switching, broadband access technologies, and service provider networking best practices. The successful candidate will be comfortable leading technical discovery, building implementation plans and design documentation, executing deployments and cutovers, communicating clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders, and managing multiple client engagements in a deadline-driven consulting environment.

• Design, implement, and optimize ISP and broadband network solutions across core, aggregation, access, transport, and customer edge environments.
• Lead network engineering projects including new deployments, upgrades, migrations, service turn-ups, hardware refreshes, and architecture modernization initiatives.
• Engage directly with clients to understand business objectives, technical requirements, operational constraints, and growth plans, then translate those needs into practical network solutions.
• Perform discovery, assessments, and technical reviews of existing environments to identify risks, gaps, and opportunities for improved performance, resiliency, scalability, and security.
• Develop high-level and low-level designs, statements of work support, implementation plans, Method of Procedure (MOP) documents, rollback plans, test plans, and client-ready technical documentation.
• Configure and deploy routers, switches, optical line systems, broadband access platforms, subscriber delivery systems, and related infrastructure across multi-vendor environments.
• Engineer and troubleshoot technologies such as BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, MPLS, EVPN, VLANs, QoS, ACLs, IPv4/IPv6, redundancy protocols, and broadband delivery platforms.
• Plan and execute maintenance windows, software upgrades, cutovers, intrusive changes, and post-change validation activities with a strong focus on minimizing client impact.
• Provide technical leadership during implementations, coordinate dependencies across internal teams and client stakeholders, and help drive projects to successful completion.
• Evaluate hardware and software solutions and provide clients with technical recommendations, tradeoff analysis, budgeting input, and implementation guidance.
• Collaborate with project managers, network operations, cybersecurity teams, vendors, field resources, and client contacts to ensure high-quality delivery across consulting and managed services engagements.
• Provide advanced troubleshooting and escalation support for complex service-affecting issues, post-deployment stabilization, and critical incidents when needed.
• Analyze alarms, logs, utilization trends, and performance data to identify root causes, support capacity planning, and improve network reliability.
• Maintain accurate diagrams, standards, configuration records, inventories, and change documentation for both internal teams and client handoff.
• Contribute to engineering standards, process improvement, automation, and repeatable delivery practices that improve consistency and…
