Lead Infrastructure Network Engineer

Job responsibilities

• Identify and mitigate network risks across firewalls, proxies, routers, switches, load balancers, and other devices.
• Monitor risk issues end‑to‑end: keep tickets updated, tracked, and resolved promptly; maintain action plans and documentation; drive remediation to closure.
• Assist audit requests by gathering and organizing evidence; ensure alignment with risk frameworks and firmwide standards.
• Configure and support core networking technologies: TCP/IP, VLANs, OSPF/BGP routing, switching, firewalls, load balancing, forward and reverse proxy.
• Remediate vulnerabilities and manage patch and firmware cycles under formal SLAs.
• Execute network change management through ITSM and CMDB processes.
• Automate remediation, policy checks, and evidence collection using scripts and APIs.
• Build and maintain dashboards; define KRIs/KPIs to track exposure, SLA adherence, and operational health.
• Ensure complete telemetry coverage (syslog, NetFlow/sFlow, cloud flow logs) into SIEM; identify and close coverage gaps.
• Support incident response, conduct root cause analysis, and implement corrective actions; collaborate with Cyber, Technology, and Operations.
• Maintain runbooks, standards, and diagrams; produce audit‑ready evidence and align remediation with business priorities.
