- Implement and maintain secure network connectivity between on-premises infrastructure and cloud environments using VPNs and dedicated connections.
- Optimize cloud network performance, availability, and cost-effectiveness through vigilant monitoring and configuration adjustments.
- Develop and enforce network security policies and best practices within the cloud, including firewall rules and access controls.
- Troubleshoot complex network issues spanning hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
- Collaborate with cloud architects, system administrators, and application developers to support cloud initiatives.
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent work experience.
- 3-5 years of experience specifically in cloud networking, with hands-on expertise in at least one major cloud provider (AWS, Azure, GCP).
- Strong understanding of networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, DNS, HTTP, BGP, VPNs) and their application in cloud environments.
- Experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools like Terraform or Cloud Formation is a plus.
- Familiarity with container networking (e.g., Kubernetes networking) is advantageous.
- Excellent problem-solving abilities and communication skills for a remote working environment.
- Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package.
- Fully remote work model with significant flexibility.
- Opportunities for continuous learning and certification in cutting-edge cloud technologies.
- Be part of a forward-thinking team driving cloud adoption in the telecom industry.
- Work on diverse and challenging projects impacting critical infrastructure.
