About The Position

The Network Engineer will own the deployment, maintenance, and continuous improvement of OcyonBio’s local infrastructure, including physical and virtual servers, network hardware, and security appliances. In this role, the engineer will design and manage network segmentation strategies, maintain access control, monitor system performance, and ensure compliance with applicable standards. This is not a maintenance-only position. The Network Engineer will serve as the organization’s internal authority on network and infrastructure systems. As such, the individual will be expected to identify risks and gaps, develop improvement plans, and present data-driven recommendations that contribute to overall business continuity, security posture, and system efficiency. The Network Engineer will function as a subject matter expert with high autonomy and technical leadership expectations, owning all facets of the site’s network and infrastructure systems. Strong leadership is required in the form of initiative, systems thinking, and communication. This person will collaborate across departments and play a critical role in aligning infrastructure strategy with business operations.

• Competency in scripting and automation of network tasks (e.g., PowerShell, Bash).

• Configure, monitor, and maintain core network components: switches, routers, firewalls, and wireless infrastructure.
• Administer physical and virtual servers to support enterprise-grade applications.
• Troubleshoot network issues and drive rapid resolution to minimize downtime across departments.
• Manage IP schemas, VLANs, VPN tunnels, and internal DNS configurations.
• Perform routine system updates, firmware upgrades, and patch management.
