5+ years hands on experience designing highly available and secure distributed system and the network architectures in AWS revolving around Palo Alto firewalls and a global transit backbone.
Strong experience with AWS network topology and services (Multi account/VPC environments that are integrated via AWS transit gateway, Direct Connects/VPNs connecting to physical locations, SD WAN technology and experience preferred).
Multi cloud experience would be a big plus. Our infrastructure runs in AWS and we also leverage some of the Azure services (Powerapps, PowerBI, etc..).
Understanding of cloud cost management strongly preferred, specifically when designing network and traffic patterns and the costs associated with different architectures.
Strong experience with network operating systems and routing protocols (Cisco and Palo Alto required)
Firewall design and configuration (Palo Alto required, Cisco Meraki experience a plus)
Experience designing and building DMZ infrastructure in AWS leveraging the Palo Alto inspection architecture.
Strong understanding of cloud and network security, particularly around cloud services and web applications/APIs.
Network troubleshooting experience with Packet capture systems and tools.
Experience building and integrating networks with monitoring, performance, security, and audit systems.
Familiarity with AWS based micro service application architectures would be a big benefit (Serverless and Container based stacks).
Scripting/Coding experience preferred to leverage automation wherever possible (PowerShell and Python preferred), any Infrastructure-as-code technology experience is a nice to have (CloudFormation or Terraform preferred).
Windows and Linux Server systems experience preferred.
Virtualization experience via VMware would be a plus.
Passion for cloud technology and trends and keeping up to date is highly preferred.
Previous experience working in SOC1/SOX regulated environments is nice to have along with experience adhering to regulatory, compliance, and cyber security related requirements in the infrastructure.
