Associate Network Ops Engineer Jobs (NOW HIRING)

The Senior Network Engineer leads Wizards of the Coast's enterprise network - datacenters, corporate offices, studios, and AWS cloud. Our stack runs on a Juniper/Mist campus fabric, a Palo Alto Networks security edge, and cloud-native AWS connectivity. You'll set technical direction, drive complex initiatives end to end, and mentor the broader team. Come help us build the future of network operations.

• Own the architecture, build, and roadmap for our Juniper/Mist campus and branch infrastructure, and lead its evolution across sites and business units.
• Lead the Palo Alto Networks security stack, from policy architecture to secure-by-design standards across teams.
• Own end-to-end AWS cloud network implementation - VPC, Transit Gateway, Direct Connect/VPN, Route 53 - and hybrid connectivity, including BGP, OSPF, and SD-WAN traffic engineering at scale.
• Drive automation and AI adoption across network operations, from config deployment to AI-powered monitoring, observability, and root-cause analysis.
• Be the go-to for critical issues, and mentor less-experienced engineers through code review, troubleshooting, and skill-building.

• 10+ years in enterprise network engineering - routing, switching, wireless - with deep expertise in Juniper (EX/QFX/SRX, Mist) and/or Cisco (Catalyst, Nexus), plus hands-on work with intelligent ops tools like Mist/Marvis at scale.
• Expert-level BGP, OSPF, SD-WAN, and load balancing chops. You've built these solutions from scratch, not just maintained them!
• Extensive Palo Alto Networks firewall experience, including policy architecture and Panorama at enterprise scale. Checkpoint or Fortinet is a plus.
• Proven AWS production experience - VPC, Transit Gateway, Direct Connect/VPN, Route 53, security groups, CloudWatch, DNS, DHCP, IPAM - with the judgment to make platform decisions independently.
• Hands-on use of AI tools like Mist/Marvis and coding assistants (Claude, Copilot) to power automation and network ops, plus a track record of leading cross-functional work and mentoring engineers.

• Active advanced certifications: CCIE, JNCIE, AWS Advanced Networking Specialty, or AWS Solutions Architect Professional.
• Prisma Access / SASE deployment leadership, or Palo Alto Cloud Identity Engine (CIE) build ownership.
• Terraform or Ansible pipelines you've built and owned in production - not just maintained.
• Experience in a multi-studio, multi-BU entertainment or gaming environment, or another complex, highly distributed org.
