Job Description

The role, at a glance:
We're hiring a Senior Network Engineer to serve as the technical lead for network operations and architecture across Biamp's enterprise infrastructure. This is hands-on leadership role. You'll own the network function, drive architecture and modernization initiatives, and mentor a network engineer, all while keeping production and corporate networks running reliably across multiple sites.

You'll work within our Infrastructure & Operations team alongside systems, platform, and service engineers, reporting to the IOPS Manager and partnering closely with our IT Architect on architectural direction. This role carries real technical authority over network decisions. You'll be expected to bring strong opinions informed by experience, lead planning and implementation for network projects, and represent the network domain in cross-functional infrastructure discussions.

We are a company committed to creating diverse and inclusive environments where people can bring their full, authentic selves to work every day. We are an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer that believes everyone matters. Qualified candidates will receive consideration for employment regardless of their race, color, ethnicity, religion, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, marital status, national origin, ancestry, genetic factors, age, disability, protected veteran status, military or uniformed service member status, or any other status or characteristic protected by applicable laws, regulations, and ordinances.

Required Skills & Experience

How you'll contribute:
• Leading network architecture and design decisions for firewalls, switching, routing, segmentation, and WAN connectivity across a multi-site enterprise environment
• Driving network infrastructure modernization projects, including core switching upgrades and firewall deployments
• Owning network operations: troubleshooting, capacity planning, change management, and incident response
• Managing and maintaining FortiGate firewall platforms (including 2601F series): policy management, VPN, SD-WAN, and security posture
• Maintaining and evolving enterprise switching infrastructure supporting 10G/25G connectivity
• Defining and tracking network performance metrics; proposing and implementing changes that improve reliability, reduce cost, and strengthen security
• Operating and improving network monitoring and alerting using tools like Zabbix and Prometheus/Grafana
• Maintaining accurate, up-to-date network documentation and IP address management in NetBox
• Mentoring a network engineer, helping them grow technically while distributing work sustainably across the function
• Collaborating cross-functionally with systems, platform, and software operations teams on shared infrastructure initiatives
• Supporting manufacturing and corporate network environments with appropriate segmentation and reliability standards
• Participating in incident response, postmortem documentation, and change management processes

A successful candidate should have:
• 7+ years of hands-on enterprise network engineering experience
• Strong experience with FortiGate/FortiOS firewall platforms (or equivalent next-gen firewall experience with Palo Alto, Cisco Firepower, etc.)
• Deep understanding of L2/L3 networking: routing protocols (BGP, OSPF, IS-IS), switching (VLANs, spanning tree, LACP), and network segmentation
• Experience designing and operating multi-site WAN and LAN environments
• Proficiency with network monitoring and observability tooling
• Strong documentation habits. You believe the network isn't real if it's not documented
• Comfort operating as the senior technical voice on network topics, including during incidents
• Demonstrated ability to mentor and develop less experienced engineers
• Bachelor's degree in computer science, information systems, or related field (equivalent experience will be considered)

Nice to Have Skills & Experience

Some nice-to-haves:
• Experience with NetBox or similar IPAM/network source-of-truth platforms
• Familiarity with Microsoft Azure networking (VNets, NSGs, ExpressRoute/VPN Gateway)
• Familiarity with zero-trust networking concepts or overlay networks (e.g., Tailscale, WireGuard)
• Exposure to network automation or infrastructure-as-code (Ansible, Terraform, Python scripting)
• Experience supporting manufacturing or industrial environments (OT/IT network considerations)
• Familiarity with Linux-based infrastructure and services
• Exposure to AV-over-IP or networked audio/video protocols (Dante, AES67) is a plus given our product space
• Experience with Extreme Networks Fabric Engine (VOSS)
• Relevant certifications (Fortinet NSE, CCNP, JNCIP, etc.) are valued but not required

Benefit packages for this role will start on the 1st day of employment and include medical, dental, and vision insurance, as well as HSA, FSA, and DCFSA account options, and 401k retirement account access with employer matching. Employees in this role are also entitled to paid sick leave and/or other paid time off as provided by applicable law.
