Company & role

A leading IT solutions provider specialising in Cloud, Security, and Network solutions.

As a Network Platform Engineer, you will join the Platform Services team, playing a crucial role in designing, engineering, and maintaining the company’s network solutions and products for customers.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Work with cutting-edge network technologies and influence vendor and product choices
• Combine engineering expertise with hands-on troubleshooting and final-tier support
• Thrive in a company culture focused on ownership, passion, and creating real client value

Key Responsibilities

• Analyse and design the refreshed core network, including vendor selection, lab testing, and migration
• Consolidate and upgrade legacy network support systems
• Configure, operate, and manage capacity across the core network
• Drive platform-wide changes, such as feature rollouts or software upgrades
• Collaborate with internal teams to understand requirements and deliver solutions
• Serve as a subject matter expert, supporting product development, supplier evaluation, and customer-facing engagements

Ideal Experience

• CCNP, JNCIS, NSE4 certification or equivalent-level hands-on experience
• Strong background working with Juniper and Cisco routers and switches in a service provider environment
• Proven ability to create technical documentation and execute solution test plans
• Solid grasp of connectivity and security solutions (SD-WAN, firewalls, LAN/Wi-Fi), MPLS, ISP, OSPF, and BGP
• Bonus points for experience in vendor troubleshooting, datacentre operations, automation, and commercial awareness
