Key job responsibilities

You'll own the hands‑on engineering and operational support of networks that operate at a scale most engineers only read about. This is where your networking fundamentals become real‑world expertise — deploying, monitoring, and troubleshooting infrastructure that millions of customers rely on every single day. You'll execute network deployments and changes with precision, following established processes while developing the judgement to know when something doesn't look right. When alerts fire or customers are impacted, you'll be part of the response — using tools like ping, traceroute, curl, and netstat to isolate issues, working methodically through layers of the network to restore service quickly. Your curiosity will drive you to understand how things work beneath the surface. You'll dig into host‑server communication patterns, trace packet paths, and build your intuition for how healthy networks behave versus when something is off. Each incident you work becomes a learning opportunity that deepens your troubleshooting instincts. You'll also begin your automation journey — reading and modifying existing scripts and code, using command‑line tools to streamline repetitive tasks, and comprehending how automation operates on a per‑device basis. You'll contribute to operational improvements by identifying small‑scale enhancements and executing changes with effective change management practices. As you grow, you'll develop confidence with routing protocols — understanding
