Network Engineer

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in United States.

📋 Description

• Design, configure, and maintain LAN/WAN, SD-WAN, VPN, firewall, and load-balancing infrastructure across multi-site and multi-cloud environments.

• Monitor network performance using tools like SolarWinds, Datadog, and ThousandEyes, proactively resolving issues before they affect service delivery and SLA targets.

• Implement network security measures, including firewall rule sets, IDS/IPS, segmentation, NAC, and principles of zero-trust architecture.

• Design and manage AWS network infrastructure—VPCs, subnets, route tables, IGW, NAT Gateways, and ELBs—for scalable and highly available architectures.

• Configure AWS Transit Gateway and VPC peering to facilitate secure, low-latency connectivity across accounts, regions, and on-premises environments.

• Implement AWS Direct Connect and Site-to-Site VPN to establish hybrid connectivity between HealthEdge data centers and AWS.

• Administer AWS Route 53, including private hosted zones, resolver rules, and health-check-based routing policies.

• Manage AWS Security Groups, Network ACLs, AWS Network Firewall, and AWS Shield to ensure least-privilege access and DDoS protection.

• Utilize AWS CloudWatch, VPC Flow Logs, and AWS Network Manager for observability, traffic analysis, and anomaly detection.

• Provide support for Azure or GCP networking as needed—VNets/VPCs, peering, and hybrid connectivity.

• Participate in a 24/7 on-call rotation, triaging and resolving network incidents according to SLA targets; contribute to post-incident reviews to reduce MTTR.

• Implement network changes through established change management processes; act as a Tier 3 escalation resource for complex issues.

• Develop automation scripts and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Ansible, Terraform, CloudFormation, and Python to enhance monitoring, alerting, and network deployment workflows.

• Build and maintain IaC for AWS network resources, ensuring repeatable and auditable deployments while identifying optimization opportunities across the team’s roadmap.

• Maintain topology diagrams, runbooks, IPAM, and change records; support disaster recovery testing, vendor coordination, and legacy environment consolidation.

• Collaborate with Infrastructure, Security, DevOps, and Application teams, while mentoring junior team members.
