Senior Network Engineer

About this role

We are building a next-generation network connecting satellites, ground stations, and cloud infrastructure . This system must operate across dynamic, intermittent links and deliver data reliably into cloud-based workloads. We are looking for a Network Engineer to strengthen the systems deployed directly at our antennas, a set of servers and network devices installed on-site to receive, demodulate, and transport satellite data to the cloud.

This is a hands-on role working across routing, overlay networking, edge systems, and cloud connectivity . Your responsibilities will include: Network Design & Architecture: Design L3 network topology across satellite, ground, and cloud environments, define IP addressing schemes, segmentation, and routing domains and model connectivity patterns and failure scenarios. Routing & Connectivity: implement and operate dynamic routing, design route advertisement, filtering, failover strategies and handle intermittent and flapping connectivity.

Overlay & Secure Networking: build secure multi-hop paths, ensure encryption, isolation, and performance. Implement secure tunnel configurations (WireGuard / IPsec). Define and enforce SSH access policies, firewall rules and least-privilege communication. Automation & Infrastructure: develop automation using Terraform/Ansible. Support scalable rollout and configuration management. Operational Integration: Align networking behavior with satellite scheduling and design safe state transitions and failover scenario.

Improve observability. Qualifications: We’re looking for Senior Network Engineer with solid technical fundamentals and the drive to learn quickly working across architecture, implementation and troubleshooting with strong ownership and problem-solving mindset. Required Skills: Strong experience with IP networking and routing (advanced level) Hands-on experience with BGP (design, operation, troubleshooting) and distance vector protocols.

Solid understanding of IP networking (routing, switching, TCP/IP, VLANs, MTU, complex NAT) and of Linux networking . Experience designing and operating VPNs and tunnelling technologies in complex, distributed environments (WireGuard, StrongSwan, GRE + IPsec) Experience with AWS networking (VPC, TGW, Cloud WAN, VPN) and edge or hybrid networking environments . Understanding of overlay vs underlay networking. Very strong experience with automation (Terraform, Ansible, or similar).
