Network, Cloud & Data Center Design Engineer

Department: Engineering

Level: Senior Individual Contributor

Location: Hybrid / On-site

Type: Full-time

Experience: 6 to 9 years.

Educations/MS in CS, EE, Network Engineering, or equivalent

About the Role:

We are looking for an experienced Network, Cloud & Data Center Design Engineer to architect and deliver resilient, high-performance infrastructure that powers our global operations. You will lead the end-to-end design of physical and virtual network environments — spanning on-premises data centers, colocation facilities, and multi-cloud platforms — ensuring our systems are scalable, secure, and built to meet demanding SLAs.

What You'll Do:

- Design and architect enterprise-grade data center networks including spine-leaf topologies, fabric interconnects, and WAN/SD-WAN overlays.
- Lead cloud network architecture across AWS, Azure, and/or GCP — including VPCs, transit gateways, direct connects, and cloud-native routing.




- Develop low-level design (LLD) and high-level design (HLD) documentation, rack elevations, cable plans, and capacity models.
- Collaborate with security teams to embed zero-trust principles, micro segmentation, and compliance controls into network designs.
- Evaluate and select network hardware and software vendors, driving proof-of-concept testing and technology refresh cycles.
- Partner with data center operations, facilities, and cloud engineering teams to ensure seamless deployment and Day 2 operations.
- Define network observability standards, traffic engineering policies, and failure-mode testing (chaos engineering, DR drills).

Must-Have Skills:

- Data Center Network Design (spine-leaf / CLOS)
- Hands-on experience designing up-to-date spine-leaf or CLOS fabrics using BGP EVPN/VXLAN for large-scale Layer 2/3 overlay networks in enterprise or hyperscale environments.
- Multi-cloud Networking (AWS / Azure / GCP)
- Proficiency architecting connectivity across at least two major cloud providers — including transit gateway, VPC peering, private endpoints, direct connect / ExpressRoute, and cloud-native firewalling.
- Routing & Switching Protocols
- Deep expertise in BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, MPLS, and QoS. Ability to design, implement, and troubleshoot complex routing policies and traffic engineering across multi- vendor environments.
- Network Security & Zero Trust
- Strong understanding of micro segmentation, firewall policy design, TLS/SSL inspection, SASE frameworks,



and regulatory compliance requirements such as PCI-DSS, HIPAA, or FedRAMP.
- Infrastructure-as-Code & Automation
- Practical experience with Terraform, Ansible, or similar IaC tooling to automate network provisioning, configuration management, and change workflows in CI/CD pipelines.

Nice-to-Have Skills:

- SD-WAN & SASE Architecture
- Familiarity with SD-WAN platforms (Cisco Viptela, VMware VeloCloud, Palo Alto Prisma) and cloud-delivered security services that converge network and security in a unified fabric.
- Network Programmability (Python / Go)
- Ability to develop custom automation scripts, NETCONF/YANG integrations, or REST API tooling that extends vendor platforms and accelerates operational workflows.
- Data Center Physical & Power Design
- Working knowledge of power distribution, cooling design (hot/cold aisle, liquid cooling), cable management best practices, and data center standards such as TIA- 942 or Uptime Institute Tier ratings.
- Network Observability & AIOps
- Experience with streaming telemetry, Grafana/Prometheus stacks, Kentik, Thousand Eyes, or similar tools to build proactive monitoring, anomaly detection, and capacity-planning dashboards.
- Industry Certifications
- Relevant certifications such as CCIE (R&S;, DC, or SP), AWS Advanced Networking, Azure Network Engineer Associate, or Google Professional Cloud Network Engineer add significant value.

Additional Requirements:

- Travel: Occasional travel to data center or colocation sites for design reviews and commissioning.
- Clearance : Ability to pass background screening; active clearance a plus for government or regulated verticals.
- Certs (preferred):CCIE (R&S;, DC, or SP), AWS Advanced Networking, Azure Network Engineer, or GCP Professional Cloud Network Engineer.
