Job Description:
What you'll do Scope of Role: You will be the primary technical
lead for the LAN and Wireless infrastructure supporting 1,000 FTEs
across 70 sites. This portfolio includes a diverse mix of Corporate
Offices, Distribution Centers with retail components, and
large-scale Warehouses. Multi-Environment Site Evaluations: Visit
and audit a variety of settings, from high-density corporate
offices to industrial warehouses and retail-integrated distribution
centers. Determine what equipment should be retained, what requires
replacement, and what requires configuration optimization.
Standardization and Remediation: Bring inherited or non-standard
network closets up to corporate standards. This includes firmware
alignment, VLAN cleanup, and improving physical rack hygiene in
diverse physical environments. New Site Launches: Lead the
end-to-end networking for new location openings, from initial site
surveys and hardware list creation to final go-live and testing.
Performance Tuning: Optimize wireless coverage and Layer 2/3
switching to ensure 1,000 users have stable connectivity, whether
they are in a carpeted office or a high-interference warehouse
floor. Escalated Support: Serve as the on-site expert for complex
connectivity issues that remote teams cannot resolve, spanning all
facility types. Travel Component: The first 6 months will require
more travel to touch each location for audits, new builds, and
optimizations. Once the baseline is established, travel reduces to
20% or less with a focus on Corporate HQ and remote management.
What we're looking for Versatile Engineering Skills: You are as
comfortable troubleshooting a core switch in a data closet as you
are mapping out access point placement in a 100,000 square foot
warehouse. Technical Stack: Proficiency with Juniper (Junos CLI for
VLANs, trunking, and L3 routing) and Ubiquiti UniFi (Controller
management, AP adoption, and RF channel planning). Enterprise
Perspective: Experience managing a distributed footprint of 70
sites. You understand the unique challenges of industrial
networking, such as RF interference in warehouses and high-uptime
requirements for retail/distribution. Pragmatism: You evaluate the
actual performance of existing hardware and prioritize stability
over simply replacing gear for the sake of it. Multi-Locations:
Proven experience supporting multiple locations and environments
ranging from Corporate HQ to field sites. Hardware: Juniper EX/QFX,
Ubiquity/UniFi Wireless and Switching.
