We are hiring senior L4 network engineers to lead design and delivery of multi-site Cisco Software-Defined Access (SD-Access) solutions at scale. You will set architecture direction, drive complex deployments across distributed campuses, and mentor engineers while partnering closely with security and operations.
Own end-to-end SD-Access architecture for large, multi-site enterprises: fabric design (control/edge/border), transit options, segmentation (SGTs/TrustSec), identity policy, and integration with WAN and data center.
Lead Catalyst Centerdriven automation: design templates, SDA workflows, network assurance, SWIM, and closed-loop operations aligned to reliability/SLOs.
Design identity-centric security with ISE: policy sets, authorization profiles, posture, PxGrid integrations, wired/wireless 802.1X/MAB, guest/BYOD, and scalable group policies.
Engineer secure edge and campus perimeters: Cisco FTD/Firepower policy design, NAT, VPN, IDS/IPS, SSL decryption strategy, and high availability.
Architect SD-WAN underlay/overlay: transport independence, application-aware routing, DIA/Cloud on-ramp, security integration, and multi-region scale.
Expert routing at scale: BGP (policy, route reflectors, communities), OSPF, EIGRP, ECMP, redistribution strategies, route filtering, summarization, and IPv6 planning.
Drive modernization roadmaps: brownfield to SDA migration, hierarchical campus design, QoS, multicast, wireless controller (Catalyst 9800) alignment, and resiliency patterns.
Deliver hands-on build and escalation leadership: lab validation, pilot, phased rollout, cutover plans, MOPs, change windows, and root-cause analysis for P1/P2 incidents.
Mentor and uplift engineering teams: design reviews, standards, runbooks, and enablement sessions for operations and field engineers.
Stakeholder leadership: collaborate with security, EUC, cloud, and application teams; translate business outcomes into technical architectures and measurable milestones.
Documentation & governance: HLD/LLD, as-builts, standards, security exceptions, and compliance artifacts; contribute to reference architectures and reusable templates.
Active CCIE (any track; Enterprise Infrastructure and/or Security strongly preferred).
10+ years enterprise networking experience, including 35+ years leading SD-Access architecture and deployment across multiple sites.
Proven, exceptional hands-on skills with Cisco routing/switching and Catalyst Center (formerly Cisco DNA Center) for SDA automation and assurance.
Deep expertise with Cisco ISE (policy, 802.1X, SGT/TrustSec) and Cisco FTD (Firepower) firewalls (threat, access control, NAT/VPN, high availability).
Strong experience with Cisco SD-WAN (design, policy/templating, security integration, operationalization).
Expert-level knowledge of BGP, EIGRP, OSPF, redistribution, and route-policy design for large enterprises.
Demonstrated success leading complex, multi-phase migrations and mentoring senior engineers.
CCDE or dual CCIE; Cisco Certified Specialist certifications in SDA, ISE, or SD-WAN.
Automation fluency (Ansible, Python, Terraform), Git-based workflows, and API integration with Catalyst Center/ISE/FTD/SD-WAN.
Wireless (Catalyst 9800/Prime/Catalyst Center Assurance), QoS strategy, multicast, NAC posture, and Zero Trust segmentation.
Cloud networking (Azure/AWS), hybrid connectivity, and DNS/DHCP/IPAM integration.
Familiarity with data center and campus interconnect (e.g., ACI concepts beneficial but not required).
