- Participating in an on-call rotation for critical issues with the team (we provide 24/7 support in case of critical networking issues).
- Implementing network segmentation strategies for security and compliance using features like VPC Endpoints and AWS Network Firewall.
What We’re Looking For:

- Solid knowledge of AWS networking services and how to stitch them together effectively (designing, implementing, and troubleshooting complex cloud networking solutions).
- Proficient in AWS networking services such as VPC, subnets, routing, security groups, VPN/Direct Connect, and advanced networking features.
Hands-on experience automating cloud infrastructure with Terraform, CloudFormation, and Ansible to automate cloud networking provisioning.
Strong understanding of network segmentation, cloud security best practices, and experience in implementing network-level security controls (e.g., firewalls, encryption, identity and access management, threat analysis).
Familiarity with networking protocols and concepts (routing, load balancing, VPNs, and TCP/IP).
Comfortable working with EC2, S3, Kubernetes, virtual machines, and CI/CD pipelines.
Clear communicator who works well across teams troubleshooting.
