Company Description

Node Networks is a boutique consultancy specialising in medium-scale telecommunications networking, based in Brisbane. We pride ourselves on our expertise in enabling scalable growth for our clients by helping them to manage their networking environments with deliberate planning and execution.

Role Description

This is a full-time role for a Network Engineer who will assist us in incident response and project implementations. Being a technically-led company, there is an unparalleled opportunity to grow your skills under the guidance of strong engineering talent. You'll work directly with our Network Architect across dozens of client networks, so no two weeks look the same.

Day to day, you'll be:

- Commissioning new routers, switches and firewalls, and onboarding new client sites
- Responding to faults and outages, and restoring service
- Implementing projects and cutovers designed by our Network Architect
- Attending both data centres and client sites for racking, cabling and remote hands
- Provisioning client services and running maintenance windows
- Auditing network infrastructure and client deployments
- Rolling out configuration standards across client fleets
- Liaising with carriers and data centres on cross-connects and faults
- Keeping diagrams, NetBox records and other documentation accurate
- Acting as a mentor for junior staff to help them develop their skills further

We support clients who have deployed Juniper, MikroTik, Fortinet, Arista, Cisco, Huawei, and more. You don't need to know all of it on day one.

This role is primarily based out of Teneriffe, but involves works all around Brisbane (and sometimes interstate)



and would suit someone who is keen to grow their skills further and progress towards a Senior Network Engineer or Network Architect position.

Due to the nature of our work, some compensated after-hours work and on-call participation is required, but we make sure that flexibility goes both ways.
