Summary
6-month inside-IR35 contract for an experienced Edge Network Engineer supporting a major corporate divestiture, separating edge services across a large office estate. Remote/Westbridge; Cisco Catalyst 9000, Nexus and Meraki platforms.
Full Job Description
A large corporate divestiture programme is creating the need for experienced Edge Network Engineers to join the team responsible for splitting edge-network services across a sizeable office estate. The engagement runs for six months and is offered on an inside-IR35 basis with a negotiable day rate, with remote working or time in Westbridge available.
The role covers the full lifecycle of edge service delivery: designing, building, migrating and splitting the estate's wireless, distribution switching and NAC infrastructure. You will operate across multiple site environments, so comfort working across different locations and platforms is important. You will need to balance programme pace with careful planning, since separation work touches every site.
The switching estate is built on Cisco Catalyst 9000, Nexus and Meraki platforms, and you will be rolling out edge network changes quickly. Close collaboration is expected with the automation and tooling team, the platform and identity teams and the core routing team, so strong teamwork and communication are essential.
If you have solid edge networking experience and want to apply it to high-profile separation work within a fast-moving programme, this is a strong opportunity to get involved. We are keen to speak with engineers who can hit the ground running.
Requirements:
- Strong experience with distribution switching
- Solid wireless networking knowledge
- Experience with NAC (network access control) infrastructure
- Hands-on exposure to Cisco Catalyst 9000, Nexus and Meraki platforms
- Experience designing, building and migrating edge network services across multi-site estates
- Ability to collaborate with the core routing, automation and tooling, and platform/identity teams
- Comfortable delivering network changes at pace in a programme environment
