The Network Automation Engineer III is a senior engineering role responsible for designing, building, implementing, and supporting automation solutions across the enterprise network environment. This role focuses on improving the scalability, reliability, security, and operational efficiency of network infrastructure through software-driven engineering practices, orchestration, and Infrastructure as Code (IaC).
The engineer partners closely with Network Engineering, Cloud, Security, Infrastructure, and DevOps teams to modernize network operations, reduce manual processes, standardize configurations, and accelerate service delivery. This role requires strong expertise in network technologies, automation frameworks, scripting, cloud-integrated networking, and operational best practices.
Qualifications / Experience
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- Advanced experience in enterprise network engineering with a strong emphasis on automation and programmability.
- Experience automating multi-vendor network environments and integrating with cloud and security platforms.
- Experience with source control, code review, testing, and deployment practices in infrastructure engineering.
- Familiarity with data formats and tools such as JSON, YAML, Jinja2, and automation pipelines.
- Relevant certifications in networking, cloud, or automation are a plus.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, develop, and maintain network automation solutions for provisioning, configuration management, compliance validation, monitoring, and lifecycle operations.
- Build reusable automation frameworks, workflows, and playbooks to support enterprise WAN, LAN, cloud, and security infrastructures.
- Develop and maintain Infrastructure as Code using tools such as Terraform, Ansible, and other orchestration platforms to standardize and automate network deployments.
- Create and maintain scripts and applications using languages such as Python to automate operational tasks, reporting, integrations, and remediation workflows.
- Integrate network automation with CI/CD pipelines, version control systems, testing frameworks, and change management processes.
- Collaborate with cloud, security, and platform engineering teams to automate networking components across hybrid and cloud environments, including VPCs, transit architectures, firewalls, load balancers, and interconnectivity solutions.
- Use APIs, SDKs, and controller-based platforms to automate configuration and operational tasks across network and security technologies.
- Establish automated validation, configuration compliance, and drift detection processes to improve network consistency and governance.
- Support the development of operational dashboards, telemetry, and event-driven automation to improve visibility and proactive incident response.
- Troubleshoot complex network and automation issues across traditional, hybrid, and cloud environments.
- Contribute to architectural standards, automation strategy, engineering documentation, and operational runbooks.
- Evaluate emerging tools, technologies, and methodologies to continuously improve network automation maturity and engineering effectiveness.
- Mentor junior engineers and contribute technical leadership in automation design, coding standards, and implementation practices.
