- Perform job walks with customers, vendors, and contractors to gather requirements and create implementation plans.
- Segment industrial networks from campus and corporate networks. Maintain controls-network segmentation.
- Author system and network architecture drawings, IP/VLAN schemes, and data flow diagrams.
- Support on-site deployment, physical network cutovers, and new site commissioning.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:
- Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or other STEM discipline and 3+ years of professional network engineering experience; OR 5+ years of professional network engineering experience and high school diploma or equivalency certificate in lieu of a degree.

- Scripting (Bash, PowerShell, Python) and automation frameworks (Terraform, Ansible).
- Linux and Windows system administration.
- GitOps and infrastructure as code, as a user and as a contributor.
- Layer 2 and Layer 3 design, deployment, and troubleshooting in latency-sensitive or industrial environments.
- Functional experience with multiple network vendors in production or lab environments.
- Hands-on configuration of managed industrial switches and routers.
- Real-time systems, industrial control networks, or OT environments in aerospace, defense, energy, oil and gas, or similar high-reliability industries.
