- Troubleshoot problems with hardware/software applications and recommend corrective action.
- Recreate customer network issues in a dedicated lab environment (as needed).
- Document customer communication and recurring technical issues to support product quality programs and product development.
- Interpersonal skills, product knowledge/expertise are critical to responding to daily, customer-centric activities.
Qualifications
- Minimum of 1-5 years hands-on experience and a combination of designing, deploying, configuring, supporting, troubleshooting, debugging, and/or administering network protocols and/or technologies.
- Expert technical knowledge is required in several of the following areas: Network management platforms, DevOps platforms, APIs (JSON, gRPC, curl/Postman/requests etc.), scripting (Python, Bash), Containers (Kubernetes, Docker), Linux, Ansible, KVM.
- General knowledge is preferred in the following areas: Ethernet, VLANs, IP routing, TCP/IP, Multicast, Protocols (BGP, ISIS, OSPF, PIM, IGMP; etc.).
- Working experience with proprietary Server virtualization solutions is highly desired (VMware ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V, KVM, etc).
- Experience with network troubleshooting tools such as Tcpdump and Wireshark are highly desired.
- Familiarity with any or some of the following is a plus:
- Overlay platforms VMWare NSX, Cisco ACI
- Terraform; Public clouds (AWS, Azure, GCP)
- Golang; Prometheus/Grafana; SSO (OIDC and SAML)
- Git (branches, commits, etc), GitHub/GitLab

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Solution Engineer Jobs at Arista Networks Jobs
Frame Your Pre-Sales Experience for Arista
Arista Solution Engineers are expected to run technical proofs of concept and speak to EOS at a CLI level. Document hands-on lab work, network design projects, or customer-facing demos in your resume before applying.
Target Arista Roles Aligned to Your Status
Arista hires Solution Engineers for both enterprise and cloud verticals. If you're on F-1 OPT, prioritize postings in regions with active cloud or data center sales teams, where project-based cycles better fit shorter authorization windows.
Clarify LCA Timing Before Accepting an Offer
Your employer must file a certified Labor Condition Application with the DOL before USCIS can process an H-1B petition. Ask Arista's recruiting team when they typically initiate that filing so you can plan your start date around it.
Prepare Your Degree Equivalency Documentation Early
H-1B specialty occupation petitions require a direct connection between your degree field and the Solution Engineer role. If your degree is in a tangential discipline, gather course transcripts and any USCIS-recognized credential evaluations before Arista's legal team requests them.
Search Verified Arista Sponsorship Roles on Migrate Mate
Filter open Solution Engineer positions at Arista Networks by visa type on Migrate Mate to confirm which roles are actively sponsoring before you invest time in the application process.
Understand the Cap-Gap Rule If You're Finishing OPT
If your F-1 OPT expires between April and October 1 and Arista files an H-1B petition on your behalf, the cap-gap provision lets you keep working continuously. Confirm with USCIS guidelines that your I-20 extension is in place before your EAD expires.

Find Solution Engineer at Arista Networks JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Arista Networks sponsor H-1B visas for Solution Engineers?
Yes, Arista Networks sponsors H-1B visas for Solution Engineer roles. The company works with immigration counsel to file petitions and Labor Condition Applications through the DOL on behalf of qualifying candidates. If you're subject to the annual H-1B cap, your petition would be submitted during the April filing window for an October 1 start date.
Which visa types does Arista Networks commonly use for Solution Engineer roles?
Arista Networks sponsors across several visa categories for Solution Engineers, including H-1B, TN (for Canadian and Mexican nationals), and F-1 OPT and CPT for students earlier in their careers. For candidates pursuing permanent residence, the company supports employment-based Green Card pathways including EB-2 and EB-3 through the PERM labor certification process.
What qualifications and experience does Arista Networks expect for Solution Engineer roles?
Arista typically looks for candidates with hands-on networking experience, familiarity with routing and switching protocols, and the ability to run technical evaluations with enterprise or cloud customers. A background in computer science, electrical engineering, or a related field strengthens H-1B specialty occupation eligibility. Experience with Arista EOS or comparable platforms is a meaningful differentiator during the technical interview stages.
How do I apply for Solution Engineer jobs at Arista Networks?
You can browse and apply for Solution Engineer positions at Arista Networks directly through Migrate Mate, which filters roles by visa sponsorship type so you can confirm eligibility before applying. Arista's hiring process for Solution Engineers typically includes an initial recruiter screen, followed by technical and sales-methodology interviews. Having a portfolio of lab work or customer-facing demos ready will strengthen your candidacy at the technical stage.
How do I time my application if my OPT or current visa status is expiring soon?
If you're on F-1 OPT, apply to Arista early enough that an H-1B petition can be filed in the April cap-subject window. The cap-gap rule protects your work authorization between OPT expiration and an October 1 H-1B start date, but only if USCIS receives a timely petition. For TN holders, status can be renewed at the border or a port of entry, which gives more scheduling flexibility than cap-subject categories.
