Support system and infrastructure health checks across networked environments
Assist with Linux system support (RHEL/Ubuntu) where required
Support hybrid environments with exposure to cloud networking (AWS/Azure desirable)
Work with senior engineers to support network upgrades, changes, and deployments
Contribute to documentation, standards, and operational improvements

Qualifications

Key Requirements

2–5 years’ experience in a Network Engineering or Network Support role
Strong hands-on experience with Cisco networking (routing, switching, VLANs, etc.)
Good understanding of TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP, VPNs, and network security principles
Experience in incident management and troubleshooting in live environments
Familiarity with monitoring tools such as Splunk, Nagios, or Prometheus
Basic scripting exposure (Bash or Python) highly desirable
