Lead Network Engineer, Cloud
About The Position
As a member of Genworth’s Cloud Center of Excellence, the Lead Network Engineer, Cloud enables enterprise cloud adoption by bridging infrastructure architecture and engineering execution for cloud networking. The role translates high-level architecture and platform designs into clear, implementable network requirements and helps ensure cloud networking solutions are consistent, secure, operationally sound, and aligned with enterprise standards. This is a highly consulted technical expert role rather than a pure build role, working closely with the Cloud Platform Architect, Network Architect, Cloud Engineering teams, and Service Operations to guide implementation decisions and resolve complex networking challenges. The position is remote for eligible residents of Maryland, North Carolina, Virginia, the Washington, DC metro area, or West Virginia, with periodic travel to Richmond, Virginia as necessary. Richmond-based candidates must work a hybrid schedule, with in-office days Tuesday through Thursday and core hours targeting 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern Time.
Requirements
- Positive, customer-first attitude.
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or equivalent experience.
- 5–8+ years of experience in network engineering and/or cloud networking roles.
- Strong experience with cloud networking, including Azure VNets, AWS VPCs, routing, BGP, segmentation, DNS, and TCP/IP.
- Experience with hybrid cloud connectivity and private connectivity patterns, including Private Link, Private Endpoints, and VPC endpoints.
- Hands-on troubleshooting experience across cloud and on-premises network environments.
- Familiarity with Infrastructure as Code concepts, such as Terraform, to guide implementations.
- Strong collaboration skills across architecture, engineering, and operations teams.
- Ability to translate high-level designs into actionable technical guidance.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
- Strong verbal and written communication skills.
Responsibilities
- Translate infrastructure and platform architecture into detailed cloud network implementation requirements, including VNet/VPC design, subnetting, routing, segmentation, and traffic flow.
- Bridge Architecture and Cloud Engineering teams to maintain alignment between design intent and implementation.
- Provide guidance and, as appropriate, implementation support for private connectivity patterns, including Private Endpoints, Private Link, and VPC endpoints.
- Support hybrid cloud and on-premises connectivity design, including routing and DNS considerations.
- Lead troubleshooting of complex cloud network issues, including connectivity failures, DNS resolution, latency, and asymmetric routing.
- Partner with Service Operations on root cause analysis and improvements to network reliability.
- Contribute to and ensure consistency with cloud networking standards, patterns, and implementation guidelines.
- Identify opportunities to improve consistency, performance, and supportability of cloud networking solutions.
- Help developers and business stakeholders use in-scope tools and solutions efficiently, cost-effectively, and securely.
- Support existing Infrastructure Automation tools and continuously refine the ecosystem to meet emerging customer needs.
Benefits
- Competitive compensation and total rewards incentives.
- Comprehensive healthcare coverage.
- Multiple 401(k) savings plan options.
- Auto enrollment in an employer-directed retirement account feature that is 100% employer-funded.
- Generous paid time off, including 12 paid holidays, Volunteer Time Off, and paid family leave.
- Disability, life, and long-term care insurance.
