We are seeking an exceptionally skilled Data, AI & Network Integration Engineer for a critical hybrid role at our Samoa, CA location.
This position is responsible for the full lifecycle of our data—from ensuring the performance and security of on-premise SQL Server environments to engineering high-speed data pipelines into Azure and integrating that data with Azure AI and Machine Learning services. A key component of this role is managing the Cisco-based network infrastructure that ensures reliable, low-latency connectivity between our on-premise data centers and the Azure cloud. The ideal candidate has a background in database management or full-stack development with broad skills in cloud integration, network automation, and applied AI.

Job Specific Responsibilities:

• Configure and maintain network connectivity (e.g. Azure ExpressRoute, VPNs, Cisco routers/switches) to ensure seamless data flow between on-premise systems and cloud services.
• Design, build, and maintain integrations with Azure AI Services (e.g., Azure OpenAI, Cognitive Search) and manage the underlying network security protocols.
• Install, configure, maintain, and tune MS SQL Server databases; monitor network bandwidth and latency to optimize database synchronization and AI inference speeds.
• Utilize Cisco DevNet principles, PowerShell, and Python to automate network provisioning, data preparation, and AI service monitoring.
• Manage database security, network Access Control Lists (ACLs), and data masking; implement AI-driven threat detection to monitor for anomalies across both data and network layers.
• Develop, test, and refine prompts for generative AI and Large Language Models (LLMs) to ensure accurate and consistent outputs for business applications.
• Collaborate with data scientists to cleanse and structure datasets for ML model training, optimizing data placement across the network to minimize latency.
• Write unit/integration tests and perform network failover testing to ensure total system resilience and high availability.
• Set Up, manager and monitor data pipelines between on-premise systems and Azure, managing the underlying Cisco network fabric.
• Support development teams by reviewing database and network interaction code (primarily .NET C#, with exposure to Python).
• Create and maintain detailed documentation of data flows, network architectures, and AI Integrations.
• Conform with and abide by all regulations, policies, work procedures, and instructions.
• All other tasks as assigned by the company.
  

Knowledge, Skill & Experience: Required:

• 3-5+ years of experience as a Microsoft SQL Server DBA and/or Strong proficiency in C# and the .NET ecosystem
• Cisco Networking: Proven experience with Cisco routing, switching and hybrid cloud connectivity.
• Azure AI Expertise: Hands-on experience integrating with Azure AI Services and OpenAI.
• Database Mastery: Strong proficiency in writing and optimizing complex T-SQL and stored procedures.
• AI Techniques: Demonstrable experience with prompt engineering and data preparation for ML models.
• Automation: Solid experience using PowerShell or Python for infrastructure and database automation.
  

Preferred Qualifications:

• Certifications: Cisco CCNA/DevNet or Microsoft Azure DP-300/AI-102.
• High Availability: Experience with SQL Server Always On Availability Groups and Cisco hardware redundancy.
• Data Tools: Experience with Azure Data Factory or SSIS for hybrid data integration.
• Education: Bachelor's degree in computer science, Information Technology or equivalent experience.
