• Assisting with design documentation (HLD/LLD) and keeping everything aligned as the programme progresses
• Helping plan and execute migrations, including runbooks, cutovers and post-migration checks
• Working closely with third parties and regional teams to coordinate delivery
• Getting involved in security aspects (firewalls, VPNs, policy validation)
• Running and supporting testing phases (functional, failover, performance)
• Helping get everything ready for handover into BAU, including monitoring and NOC documentation

What they’re looking for

• Solid background in network engineering (around 5+ years)
• Experience working on WAN / SD-WAN / SASE environments
• Strong hands-on knowledge of Palo Alto (ideally Prisma Access)
• Good understanding of BGP xwzovoh and routing concepts
• Strong experience with IPSec VPNs
• Someone who has been involved in network migrations or large change programmes
• Comfortable working with global teams and external partners

Nice to have

• Experience working on separation or divestment projects
• Exposure to regulated environments or compliance frameworks (ISO, PCI etc.)
