Role Overview

We are looking for a Senior Network & Security Engineer to serve as the primary hands-on technical owner of our enterprise network and security infrastructure. You will be responsible for the day-to-day operation, performance, and security of our Fortinet security platform and Cisco switching environment across a globally distributed manufacturing organization.

This is an execution-focused role—not a strategy or management position. The CIO retains ownership of cybersecurity strategy and roadmap, supported by external vCISO advisory for independent oversight and board-level guidance. Your job is to make the infrastructure work, keep it secure, and keep it documented. You will be the go-to technical expert the CIO relies on to execute security and network initiatives, triage and respond to incidents, and maintain operational excellence.

This role operates within a lean, highly collaborative IT organization where everyone wears multiple hats. The ideal candidate thrives on hands-on work—configuring firewalls, managing switches, troubleshooting network issues, and responding to security events, maintaining documentation and collaborating with colleagues.

Key Responsibilities

Security Operations & Fortinet Platform Ownership

  • Own and operate the Fortinet security platform for network segmentation, threat prevention, and secure remote access, including:
  • FortiGate firewalls, FortiManager, FortiAnalyzer, FortiAuthenticator, FortiWeb
  • FortiClient endpoint protection managed via FortiClient EMS
  • VPN (site-to-site and remote access), IDS/IPS, web filtering, and security policies
  • Monitor security events and logs; triage, respond to, and remediate security incidents. Escalate with clear technical summaries and recommended actions.
  • Continuously tune and harden firewall rules and security controls to reduce attack surface while maintaining business-critical connectivity.
  • Execute vulnerability scans, track remediation efforts, and coordinate patching with internal teams and external partners.
  • Assess, segment, and monitor OT/ICS networks across manufacturing sites to reduce risk while preserving operational continuity.
  • Execute incident response plans, participate in tabletop exercises, and document post-incident lessons learned.
  • Support compliance, audit, and cyber-insurance requirements by maintaining security controls and producing evidence as needed.
  • Support evaluating, onboarding, and overseeing managed security operations (SOC) services.

Network Infrastructure Management

  • Own the day-to-day operation, performance, and reliability of the globally distributed enterprise network.
  • Administer and optimize the enterprise Cisco switching environment including VLANs, trunking, spanning tree, and port security.
  • Execute network upgrades, capacity planning, and lifecycle management.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve network issues across LAN, WAN, and remote-access environments.
  • Maintain accurate and up-to-date network documentation, diagrams, and configuration standards.

Collaboration & Communication

  • Serve as the primary technical resource for networking and security within the IT team.
  • Coordinate with managed service providers to ensure SLAs are met and security standards are maintained.
  • Evaluate and recommend third-party vendors and security tools.
  • Communicate technical status, risks, and recommendations clearly.

Required Qualifications

  • 5+ years of hands-on experience in network engineering and security operations, with demonstrated ownership of infrastructure and security tooling.
  • Strong hands-on experience with the Fortinet ecosystem (FortiGate, FortiManager, FortiAnalyzer, FortiClient EMS, VPN, IDS/IPS).
  • Hands-on experience managing Cisco switching environments including VLANs, trunking, and general LAN/WAN troubleshooting.
  • Solid operational experience with security monitoring, vulnerability management, and incident response execution.
  • Experience supporting networks in manufacturing or OT-adjacent environments is a strong plus.
  • Ability to communicate technical issues clearly and concisely to IT leadership.
  • Comfortable working in a small, lean, collaborative IT organization where self-direction, prioritization, and pragmatism are essential.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Fortinet certifications, particularly NSE 4 (FortiOS), NSE 5 (FortiManager/FortiAnalyzer), NSE 6 (FortiClient EMS, OT Security); NSE 7 Enterprise Firewall is a strong differentiator
  • Cisco certifications (e.g., CCNP, CCNA)
  • Security certifications such as Security+, CySA+, or GSEC
  • Experience in Azure/Entra integrated environments
  • Experience working in globally distributed or multi-region IT environments

What Success Looks Like (First 12–18 Months)

  • Network and security infrastructure is stable, well-documented, and consistently maintained.
  • Fortinet platform is fully optimized—firewall rules tuned, security policies hardened, logging and alerting operational.
  • OT network segmentation assessed and hardened across manufacturing sites.
  • Managed SOC partner successfully onboarded and integrated (in partnership with CIO).
  • CIO can confidently delegate day-to-day network and security operations to this role.
  • vCISO engagement scoped and initiated to provide independent security oversight, roadmap validation, and board-level reporting.

Why Join Us

  • Opportunity to own and operate the full network and security stack for a global manufacturing organization.
  • Direct access to the CIO—no layers of management between you and decision-makers.
  • Modern Fortinet security stack with executive support for continued investment.
  • High-impact role where your work directly protects the business.
  • Collaborative, lean IT environment that values pragmatism, accountability, and getting things done over bureaucracy.
