Endemand IT is hiring an experienced Network Engineer to support secure, high‑performance enterprise infrastructure in Riyadh. This role is critical to designing and maintaining resilient network, security, and load‑balancing solutions across on‑prem and cloud‑integrated environments, with strong exposure to Kubernetes networking.

In this role, you will work on complex enterprise network environments that demand high availability, security, and scalability. You will be responsible for configuring and operating Palo Alto firewalls, F5 load balancers, and Kubernetes networking components, ensuring seamless traffic flow and strong security posture. The position involves close collaboration with Dev Ops and infrastructure teams, supporting modern containerized workloads alongside traditional network architectures.

You will also perform troubleshooting, capacity planning, and performance tuning across multiple layers. This is an excellent opportunity for senior network engineers looking to work in advanced, hybrid infrastructure environments in Saudi Arabia.

• Design, implement, and manage enterprise network infrastructure
• Configure and maintain Palo Alto firewalls (security policies, NAT, VPNs, threat prevention)
• Manage and optimize F5 load balancers (LTM / GTM) for high availability and performance
• Support and troubleshoot Kubernetes networking (Ingress, Services, Network Policies)
• Monitor network performance and ensure maximum uptime and resiliency
• Implement network security best practices and compliance standards
• Troubleshoot network issues across on‑prem and cloud environments
• Collaborate with Dev Ops and infrastructure teams for deployment and scaling
• Perform network capacity planning and performance optimization
• Maintain accurate documentation for network architecture and configurations

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related field
• 5–12 years of experience in network engineering roles
• Strong hands‑on experience with Palo Alto Firewalls
• Strong experience with F5 Load Balancers (LTM / GTM)
• Practical experience with Kubernetes networking concepts
• Solid understanding of TCP/IP, DNS, and DHCP
• Strong routing & switching knowledge (BGP, OSPF)
• Experience with VPNs, NAT, SSL/TLS
• Hands‑on experience with network monitoring and troubleshooting tools
• Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and communication skills

• Knowledge of cloud networking (AWS, Azure, or GCP)
• Experience in hybrid or multi‑cloud environments
• Exposure to Dev Ops or CI/CD‑driven infrastructure environments
• Experience supporting large‑scale or mission‑critical systems
• Strong documentation and stakeholder collaboration skills

To stand out, clearly outline real projects where you configured Palo Alto, optimized F5 traffic flows, or supported Kubernetes networking—quantify improvements such as uptime, performance gains, or reduced incident response time.
