The Network Engineer will be responsible for the design, configuration, and maintenance of Cisco-based network infrastructure, including routers, switches, and firewalls, while ensuring network security compliance in accordance with DoD and DISA standards. This is a Tier 2/3 engineering role requiring deep expertise in routing, switching, VLAN management, and network security hardening.
Key Responsibilities
Network Device Management
  • Manage, configure, and maintain Cisco networking devices including routers, switches, and firewalls to ensure optimal data flow
  • Perform network-adjacent administration tasks on Windows-based management servers, domain controllers, and network monitoring tools
  • Handle comprehensive Tier 2/3 network engineering responsibilities including VLAN management, routing protocol optimization, and subnetting
Cybersecurity & Compliance
  • Collaborate closely with the ISSO to implement and maintain network-level security measures, access control lists (ACLs), and firewall rules
  • Conduct regular patch management and firmware upgrades on routers, switches, and security appliances to eliminate vulnerabilities and maintain compliance
  • Perform STIGs assessments on network devices and implement required security controls to harden network infrastructure
  • Conduct regular network security audits, vulnerability scans, and traffic analyses, providing detailed reports to management
Network Operations & Reliability
  • Troubleshoot complex network routing, switching, and connectivity issues to provide rapid, definitive resolutions
  • Ensure high availability, redundancy, and maximum throughput performance of critical defense networks and communication pathways
  • Perform deep-packet inspections and fact-finding missions to pinpoint network latency or throughput bottlenecks and engineer solutions
Documentation & Modernization
  • Build and maintain repositories of network diagrams, traffic trend analyses, configurations, and baseline data for operational continuity and archival purposes
  • Assist with network expansion projects, hardware refreshes, and architecture modernization initiatives as assigned
  • Monitor internal network deployment statuses to maintain operational accountability and communicate network readiness to management and stakeholders
Cross-Functional Integration
  • Work with systems and security teams to ensure seamless network-to-application integration and cross-team functionality

Required Qualifications
  • Active TS/SCI security clearance
  • Active IAT Level II Certification (CCNA, SSCP, CND, Security+ CE) or above; CCNA highly preferred
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Network Engineering, or a related field; 10 years of relevant network engineering experience may be substituted in lieu of a degree
  • Strong knowledge of network-attached Windows systems, including the configuration, tuning, and troubleshooting of network services (DNS, DHCP, Active Directory)
  • Knowledge of network virtualization technologies including virtual switches, distributed switches, and networking within VMware/KVM environments
  • Proficiency in Linux server administration as it relates to network services, tools, and repository management
  • Familiarity with DoD network security requirements, DISA guidelines, and network device STIG implementation
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, including ability to document complex network topologies and brief leadership
  • Exceptional organizational skills and meticulous attention to detail regarding network configurations and IP address management (IPAM)
  • Strong time management and prioritization skills with the ability to meet strict deployment deadlines
  • Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to build effective relationships with coworkers, mission partners, and defense customers

Preferred Qualifications
  • Certified Network Defender (CND) or Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP) certification
  • Experience working with defense networks within a secure DoD environment (e.g., SIPR, JWICS)
  • Familiarity with network automation and configuration management tools (e.g., Ansible for IOS/NX-OS, Puppet)
  • Experience with containerization technologies and understanding of their underlying overlay networking requirements (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes networking)
  • Network scripting skills in Bash and PowerShell to automate routine configuration backups and monitoring tasks
  • Familiarity with a diverse array of enterprise networking products and next-generation firewalls (e.g., Juniper, Ubiquiti, Palo Alto)

Benefits
  • Competitive compensation package and benefits.
  • Professional development and certification opportunities.
  • Collaborative and supportive team environment.
  • High potential for long-term placement on follow-on SETA contract.
