- Working closely with third parties and regional teams to coordinate delivery
- Getting involved in security aspects (firewalls, VPNs, policy validation)
- Running and supporting testing phases (functional, failover, performance)
- Helping get everything ready for handover into BAU, including monitoring and NOC documentation
What they’re looking for:
- Solid background in network engineering (around 5+ years)
- Experience working on WAN / SD‑WAN / SASE environments
