What we are looking for:
Need to know how to code. You don’t need to be an expert, but basic programming in your language of choice is required - you need to be able to build a program.

Appreciate autonomy and be able to take the initiative.
Experience managing 3rd parties via email and phone, negotiating with vendors, purchasing hardware and enabling remote work.
Ideally you would have some of the following:
Experience in low-latency network technologies: TCP/IP, Multicast (IGMP, PIM), L2/L3, and WAN.
Experience in deploying and supporting routing protocols such as BGP, EVPN.
Experience with Arista or Cumulus Linux.
Understanding of Firewall technologies, design, and vendors; and how to automate them.
Coding experience with Python and Bash scripting to automate tasks.
Knowledge of Ansible and Terraform to automate configuration deployment.
Experience with Linux, both from an admin point of view and on the command line.
Experience in writing tests in Robot Framework.
Well versed in observability and alerting stacks: Elastic, InfluxDB, Telegraf, Grafana
Experience in troubleshooting system or network issues, tcpdump, wireshark, strace.
