About The Position

We’re looking for an experienced Network Engineer to design, implement, and operate the network infrastructure that connects our people, systems, and facilities. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role — you’ll architect, deploy, and manage everything from fiber-connected multi-building networks to secure, air-gapped environments supporting engineering, manufacturing, and compute-intensive workloads. You’ll collaborate closely with systems, security, and engineering teams to ensure our networks are fast, reliable, and built for scale. This role includes helping design and optimize high-performance compute (HPC) clusters, ensuring low-latency, high-throughput connectivity for simulation and engineering workloads. It’s an opportunity to own foundational infrastructure in a high-growth, technically demanding environment — where precision, reliability, and scalability are key.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience as a Network Engineer or equivalent technical role.
  • Proven experience designing and operating multi-building or campus networks.
  • Strong knowledge of fiber WAN, switching, routing, and firewalls (Cisco, Fortinet, Juniper, or Unifi).
  • Experience building and maintaining air-gapped or segmented network environments.
  • Familiarity with high-performance compute (HPC) or other low-latency networking systems.
  • Proficiency with network monitoring, diagnostics, and alerting tools.
  • Deep understanding of TCP/IP, VLANs, VPNs, routing protocols, DNS, DHCP, and network security.
  • Excellent troubleshooting, documentation, and communication skills.
  • Ability to take full ownership — from architecture to hands-on implementation and operations.

Nice To Haves

  • Experience in aerospace, defense, or other regulated technical operational environments (e.g., GCC High, FedRAMP).
  • Familiarity with Zero Trust, SDN, or network automation concepts.
  • Scripting and automation skills using Python, Ansible, or PowerShell.
  • Exposure to ITSM, incident/change management, and configuration control processes.
  • Certifications such as CCNP, Fortinet NSE, Juniper JNCIP, or equivalent.

Responsibilities

  • Design, deploy, and maintain enterprise and lab networks spanning multiple buildings and facilities.
  • Architect and operate air-gapped and isolated networks with strict segmentation, access control, and security monitoring.
  • Collaborate with systems and engineering teams to design and optimize high-performance compute (HPC) clusters and their supporting network infrastructure.
  • Configure and manage switching, routing, wireless, and firewall systems (Cisco, Fortinet, Juniper, or Unifi).
  • Implement and maintain fiber-based WAN connectivity between buildings and remote sites.
  • Manage LAN/WAN infrastructure, including VLANs, VPNs, DNS, DHCP, and QoS configurations.
  • Integrate on-prem and cloud networking to support Azure and Microsoft 365 hybrid environments.
  • Deploy and maintain network monitoring and alerting systems (e.g., PRTG, SolarWinds, Grafana, NetBox, Datadog).
  • Develop resilient architectures with redundancy, observability, and security built in.
  • Collaborate across IT, security, and engineering teams to support high-performance and secure operations.
  • Document network designs, configurations, and operational procedures following ITSM and change management best practices.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve complex networking issues across physical and virtual environments.

Benefits

  • long-term incentives, in the form of stock options
  • access to medical, vision & dental coverage
  • access to a 401(k) retirement plan
