Our client is actively recruiting a highly skilled and experienced Principal Network Engineer to join their dynamic, remote-first global operations team. In this fully remote position, you will be instrumental in designing, implementing, and maintaining our company's complex global network infrastructure. This role demands a deep understanding of routing protocols (BGP, OSPF), switching technologies, firewalls (Palo Alto, Cisco), VPNs, and WAN optimization. You will be responsible for ensuring the stability, performance, and security of our network across all locations, troubleshooting advanced issues, and proactively identifying potential problems before they impact operations. The Principal Network Engineer will also play a key role in capacity planning, network architecture development, and the evaluation and adoption of new network technologies. This is a hands-on role requiring strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a focus on delivering robust and scalable network solutions.

The ideal candidate will possess excellent communication skills, the ability to work independently, and a proven track record of successfully managing critical network infrastructure in a distributed environment. This is an exceptional opportunity to contribute to a leading technology company, working from anywhere within the specified remote work guidelines.
