Principal Network Engineer - Shape the Future of Hybrid Cloud Infrastructure

Are you ready to take the lead in shaping and securing cutting-edge hybrid cloud infrastructure?

We are on the hunt for a Principal Network Engineer who thrives in dynamic environments, takes ownership of outcomes, and excels at building scalable, secure, and highly available systems.

You'll join a forward-thinking team embracing a hybrid multi-cloud (AWS, Azure, GCP) and on-premises ecosystem. This is your opportunity to drive modernisation, steer architecture, and be a hands-on force across infrastructure, automation, observability, and security.

What You'll Do

• Architect and build modern hosting environments from the ground up, with a focus on observability, security, and infrastructure-as-code.


• Lead infrastructure design & technical direction, mentoring and guiding junior engineers along the way.


• Take ownership of network operations, including switching, routing, firewalls, wireless, VPN, compute, and storage.


• Support and transform legacy infrastructure, migrating systems to a cloud-first, automation-driven model.


• Partner with DevOps, TechOps, InfoSec, and Engineering teams to ensure systems are resilient, scalable, and secure.


• Play a key role in disaster recovery planning, capacity management, and incident response.


• Continuously evaluate and adopt new technologies that drive business value and operational efficiency.

What You Bring

• 10+ years in enterprise-level system/network design and support.


• Deep expertise in cloud networking (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and hybrid environments.


• Proven experience with:


• Palo Alto firewalls and Panorama


• Juniper switching and routing


• VXLAN, EVPN, OSPF, BGP


• Enterprise Wi-Fi, NAC, VPNs, and RADIUS/LDAP auth


• Linux/Windows, Infrastructure-as-Code (Ansible, Terraform), and scripting (Python, PowerShell, Bash)


• Strong leadership, mentoring, and cross-functional collaboration skills.


• A proactive mindset with a bias for action, always looking to improve performance, security, and resilience.

Bonus Points

• Certifications: PCNSE, JNCIP/JNCIE, AWS/Azure certs, CCSP, ITIL


• Experience with monitoring, forensic investigation tools, and configuration management (Chef, Puppet, Ansible)


• Familiarity with agile or DevSecOps environments

Why This Role?

• Hands-on, high-impact: You're not just designing-you're building, mentoring, and evolving the infrastructure.


• Forward-looking tech stack: Embrace modern cloud, automation, and network security technologies.


• Hybrid flexibility: Work in a collaborative, adaptable environment that values innovation and ownership.


• Lead the change: Help drive the transformation from legacy to modern platforms across global infrastructure.

If you're a technical leader who thrives on challenge, complexity, and continuous improvement-we want to hear from you.

Apply now and help us build the resilient, secure, and scalable infrastructure of tomorrow.
