This senior technology leader will shape the future of connectivity across our multi-site clinical environment-bridging legacy physical infrastructure, advanced routing/switching, and secure cloud environments. The ideal candidate is a seasoned network engineer who has evolved into cloud space, passionate about designing scalable, high-performance, and resilient hybrid routing ecosystems that securely handle clinical data traffic, enterprise workloads, and modern AI pipelines. This role serves as a trusted advisor to IT leadership, cybersecurity, and network engineering teams, ensuring that campus networks, WAN edges, and cloud landing zones deliver maximum uptime, strict compliance, and line-rate performance.

  • Optimize end-to-end network throughput and minimize latency for large-scale data transport, supporting healthcare interoperability and data-heavy AI/LLM ingestion pipelines.
  • Manage the evolution of the WAN edge and local campus distribution layers, ensuring seamless interoperability between traditional hardware, Software-Defined Networking (SDN), and multi-cloud platforms.
  • Provide expert technical leadership in network automation, utilizing scripting (Python, Shell) and orchestration tools (Ansible, Terraform) to eliminate manual configuration drift.
  • Mentor and scale technical engineering teams, fostering a culture of continuous learning that bridges traditional route/switch disciplines with modern automated infrastructure.

What You'll Bring
Education Requirements:

  • Required: Bachelor's Degree required or equivalent of minimum 8 years relevant work experience (network or data center engineering / architecture)
  • Preferred: Master's degree in Computer Science, Network Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related discipline (Highly Desirable).

  • Required: Track record of developing compatible system infrastructures that align with long-term organization strategies.
  • Preferred / Helpful Experience: CapEx strategic budgeting, Software-Defined Networking (SDN) implementation, Zero-Trust security frameworks, and acting as a Clinical Engineering (Biomed) liaison.

Other Requirements:

  • Requires superior communication and consultation skills to coordinate effectively with executive leadership and translate technical requirements into business value.
  • Must be able to coordinate and provide expert guidance in the design and implementation of disaster recovery and business continuity frameworks.
  • Some after-hours work and periodic 24x7 on-call support will be required, including participating with Emergency/Hurricane Response teams as assigned.
