Overview:
The Midstream OT Network Engineer will design, develop, and package network solutions that can be easily deployed and consumed by our Product Line teams. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in traditional network engineering, coupled with the ability to package these solutions into products that other teams can manage and deploy autonomously (Network Development).
As a key contributor, the Network Engineer will develop complete, scalable networking products, ensuring they are optimized for consumption by cross-functional teams in a Scaled Agile (SAFe) environment. Experience with modern technologies like Network as Code and Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) is essential to support efficient, automated deployments.
Knowledge of critical infrastructure and Operational Technology (OT) in industrial environments is preferred.
Qualifications:
- Minimum of 5 years in network engineering roles, with a proven track record in designing and maintaining enterprise-grade networks.
- Experience with Network as Code tools (e.g., Ansible, Terraform).
- Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and automation practices.
- Strong understanding of routing protocols: BGP, OSPF, EIGRP
- Experience configuring, and troubleshooting security / WAN protocols: IPSec, DMVPN preferred.
- Good knowledge of SDWAN and associated technologies.
- Experience supporting wireless technologies, including cellular, satellite, point-to-point and point-to-multipoint broadband and narrowband radios, and microwave communication equipment.
- Advanced understanding of network monitoring and analysis tools: Solarwinds, CA Spectrum, wireshark.
- Experience with Cisco ISE or related AAA servers
- Previous experience working in an Operational Technology environment, including SCADA and industrial control systems preferred.
- Cisco CCNA or CCNP preferred.
- Experience with Agile / Scrum methodologies preferred.
Responsibilities:
- Collaborate with Product Line teams to ensure network platform infrastructure aligns with product goals and timelines.
- Design, implement, and maintain robust network solutions to support product teams in a Scaled Agile (SAFe) environment.
- Support the transition to CI/CD practices, enabling faster, more efficient deployments while maintaining network stability and security.
- Once built, work with cross-functional teams to integrate network solutions with Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines.
- Drive automation initiatives, leveraging Network as Code practices to streamline deployments and improve network reliability.
- Contribute to planning and implementing new technologies such as SD-WAN and other networking solutions.
- Manage network operations including configuring routers, switches, and other infrastructure equipment in a mission-critical OT environment.
- Troubleshoot complex network issues, ensuring high availability and performance.
- Ensure compliance with industry standards, regulatory requirements, and security best practices.
- Participation in after hours on call rotation is required.
- Provide updates daily, weekly, monthly, or as requested.
- Supports the corporate culture by personal involvement in activities to enhance performance in Health, Environment, Safety & Corporate Social Responsibility.
