Network Engineer - Full Scope Polyat CDW Careers

The Network Engineer - Full Scope Poly performs engineering services to enable all aspects of network management from network design through implementation, maintenance, sustainment of existing networks, and identification/correction of complex internetwork issues. Implements and sustains Wide Area Networks (WANs), wired and wireless Campus Area Networks (CANs), Data Center Networks/Interfaces (DCN/DCI), Network Security (NETSEC), and Tactical/Deployable Networking Systems. Analyzes design, specifications, and related documents. Implements communication system requirements to support the distributed functionality of a networked enterprise environment. Analyzes network characteristics (e.g., traffic connect time, transmission speeds, packet sizes, and throughput), troubleshoots problems, and recommends modification of network configurations.

(U) The Skill Level 3 Network Engineer shall possess the following capabilities:

• Facilitate the implementation of high-speed, scalable, fault-tolerant network topologies as applicable to WAN and LAN design 
• Minimize network latency and maximize data throughput 
• Validate new and existing dataflow and data formats 
• Lead large efforts of dynamic requirements and scale 
• Work with System engineers, customers, and cross organizational teams to refine requirements 
• Coordinate with appropriate dataflow organizations and end-customer recipients, follow-on data repositories and tasking organizations, and understand potential adverse impacts on system-wide dataflow 
• Perform security testing and design evaluations 
• Employ government standards to configure the interconnects between data centers, networks, and security boundaries 
• Draft technical requirements, configuration management, and planning documentation 
• Design, integrate, configure, deploy, test, and maintain numerous types of network devices, interfaces, and technologies to include VPN, VRF, VSS, BGP and OSPF routing or other routing protocols as required, and VLAN 
• Optimize end-to-end system performance (e.g., capacity, margins, data quality, etc.) and dataflow management 
• Configure and optimize the network to connect various front-end and back-end components

Qualifications:

• Active DoD TS/SCI security clearance required. CI polygraph is preferred, active Full Scope polygraph is best.
• Twelve (12) years of experience in programs and contracts of similar scope, type, and complexity are required. 
• Bachelor's degree in engineering from an accredited college or university is required.
• Four (4) years of additional network engineering experience may be substituted for a Bachelor's degree.
• Certifications: An IAT l Level II baseline certification as defined by DoD 8570.01-M is required. IAT III within 12 months. CCIE, or equivalent, certification or higher required.
