Experience with bare-metal Kubernetes networking with knowledge of CoreDNS, NAT, Gateway API, Loadbalancers, Network Policies, CNI, Overlay Networks, Cilium, Flannel, Service Meshes, eBPF, etc. Experience with networking focused operating systems such as Cumulus Linux, VyOS, openWRT, DD-wrt. Experience with unmanaged ethernet switches and configuration related to features such as port controls, buffer management, ATU tables, TCAM. Experience with wireless access points, their configuration, and elements such as security, captive portals. Experience interfacing with cellular and satellite-based networking systems and least cost routing models. Experience and In-depth working knowledge of TCP/IP, LAN/WAN, VPN, and IP routing protocols (OSPF, BGP). Experience with Cloud-provider network design and implementation (AWS, Azure, etc.). Strong knowledge of IP networking including Virtual Private Cloud, VPN, SDN, DNS, Load-balancing, and Firewalls. Familiarity with the following commercial networking equipment: Cisco and Juniper routers, Palo Alto, Juniper and Cisco firewalls, and F5 or other load balancer. Experience with design / development of complex Linux / Android embedded systems. In depth understanding networking designs best suited to a variety functional use cases such as audio/video distribution/streaming, file sharing, message streams, Internet Service Provider, and transactional systems. Understanding of networking security and cryptography. Experience in design / development of software on complex embedded systems from requirements to production / deployment. Robust analytical skills and ability to identify and solve complex problems at the network and system layers. Experience organizing / leading / approving design reviews, test plan reviews. Experience building web scale/container-based solutions (distributed and standalone) using Kubernetes a plus. Experience documenting architectures and familiar with related diagraming models (C4, PlantUML, ArchiMate, etc.). Exceptional verbal, written and interpersonal / collaboration skills. Experience in Agile development process. Experience with AWS Cloud Computing a plus. Roles & Responsibilities :
Develop and document end-to-end network architecture for IFEC systems. Ensure network architecture meets functional, operational and scalability requirements. Define, document and communicate clear goals (NFRs) for the network architecture including the reasons they were chosen, key attributes, risks and how the architecture meets them. Recommend and develop architectural design patterns / frameworks that enable the chosen architecture and will be used by the development teams. Review existing networking designs and identify / implement improvements. Responsible for providing complete front-to-end engineering, implementation and support of solutions involving, but not limited to, WAN, LAN, WLAN, Security, Virtual, and Cloud technologies. Communicate the network architecture throughout the organization via presentations and architecture documents/diagrams. Interface with product and engineering teams on review of new features / products and provide guidance on the implications / work scope / feasibility of them. Collaborate with development / test / integration / support teams on refinement/implementation/verification/deployment of the chosen architecture. Participate in detailed design, test plan and go-to-market reviews to ensure alignment with the chosen architecture and NFRs are met. Evaluate upcoming technologies, stay current with industry best practices and adapt them into the network architecture as needed to enable the product roadmap. Create prototypes, proof-of-concepts and demonstrations to evaluate new architecture / technologies on the systems.
Provide technical leadership with engineering in the areas of software design, implementation and test.
