Notes from a detailed Teams meeting with the hiring authority, Global Network Manager:

Quote,

"I lead a global team of 6 Network Engineers, of varying levels of experience. I am in need of a true Senior Network Engineer to be the team's technical leader. This Senior must have the ability to plan, design, engineer, and deploy network solutions."

"This is primarily a Project Based Sr Network Engineer. The Projects will be enterprise in scope, supporting a global network of ~140 global locations, and growing...."

"A Project example: for example, I want to be able to ask this Sr Engineer take the lead on doing a technical assessment, then execute activities for M&A migration of a newly acquired company, with 50 locations...."

"Another example would be to assess our BGP and OSPF currently in place, decide what is working, what is not; and bring standardization to our BGP and OSPF routing...

"Another Example: Our data centers are not up to current generally accepted network standards. Do health check/analysis and design upgrade of DC's. One is located on east coast, another in Asia."

"Last, but important: we are in the final stages of selection of SD-WAN solution for our global network. Likely the product with be Palo Alto. This Senior will lead the hands on design and engineering, with my input and support, of course, but I'd like this kind of project to excite this Network Engineer. I foresee this as being a 2 -3 year project; will be a planned global deployment."

"I need someone who is engaged, driven, and has natural ability & inclination to be a team lead. The reason for the opening is a recent Sr Engineer who departed the company, who on paper looking like a rock star – holding a CCIE certification, but did not have the real world experience or critical thinking skills to design and implement network solutions, configurations, directing installations; and defining, documenting and enforcing network infrastructure standards. Added to this, he was not showing up for meetings, calls, etc."

"I want someone who is reliable, and cares about their work product. The is the hole I am seeking to fill on the team."

"Ideally, I'd like this person to be someone who wants to continuously update job knowledge by participating in educational opportunities; reading professional publications; maintains a personal network/lab; and/or participants in professional organizations. Their head's in the game, so to speak..."

This Sr Eng will participate in an on-call rotation. On call consists of 1 week, every other month (every 8 weeks). May also receive a call from Junior staff when not on-call for escalation purposes. As a global company, the coverage required by Houston staff is minimal. Realistically, this will be a couple hours in the evening (CST) until APAC takes over, during the week. Then Friday after 5 PM, through Sunday evening until APAC takes over. Singapore is 12 – 13 hours ahead of us, depending on daylight savings time.

Lastly – this Sr Network Eng will provide mentorship to junior members of the team.

Job Qualifications:

Bachelor's Degree plus 7 years of experience, or 10 or more years of experience that is directly related to the job responsibilities

Certifications are a plus, but NOT required (CCNA, Network+, etc.)

Ability to demonstrate troubleshooting skills, think analytically while working in a fast-paced environment and the flexibility to work with a wide range of technologies.

Must multi-task and juggle multiple priorities while ensuring successful completion of all deliverables.

Forward thinker who designs for current business needs as well as plans for scalability and longer-term solutions.

Excellent written skills and verbal communication skills.

Ability to travel globally, including Singapore/SE Asia, China, Eastern Europe, West Europe, etc. This would be infrequent; but is possible.

Interview process:

Initial Teams call with me, then a team call/interview; then a final interview with VP of Infrastructure. If this person makes it to final interview; it is likely get the offer.
