The Client & Opportunity

Join a premier, multi-site healthcare system serving the North Georgia community. This organization is currently in the middle of a massive digital transformation, aggressively migrating mission-critical clinical infrastructure (including EHR and Imaging systems) into a Hybrid-AWS environment.

You will be joining a disciplined team of 12 engineers where “getting it done” is the standard. This isn’t just a maintenance role—it’s a chance to architect the path to the cloud for an organization with 5 major hospitals and 80+ remote locations.
Job Summary

This is a Network Engineer II position designed for a technically curious professional with a deep foundation in traditional Routing & Switching who is ready to evolve into a Cloud-Hybrid specialist. You will be responsible for the support, implementation, and lifecycle management of a sprawling network infrastructure.

Beyond day-to-day operations, you will act as a primary contributor to the “Cloud Path,” assisting in the secure transition of applications, load balancers, and firewalls to AWS. The ideal candidate thrives in a high-stakes, 24×7 environment where technical logic and clear communication are paramount.
Detailed Responsibilities

Hybrid Cloud Orchestration: Actively assist in the ongoing migration of on-premises services to AWS. You will manage and configure cloud-based firewalls, load balancers, and Transit Gateways to ensure seamless connectivity between physical hospitals and the cloud.

Enterprise Infrastructure Management: Maintain, troubleshoot, and upgrade a multi-vendor environment consisting of Juniper (EX/QFX/MX) and Palo Alto (PA-Series) across a complex enterprise backbone.
Project Delivery & Construction: Collaborate cross-functionally with Application Managers and Construction Project Managers. You will lead the network build-out for new clinical sites, from initial design and cabling oversight to final switch and firewall configuration.
Security & Availability: Ensure 99.99% uptime for critical clinical systems. This includes managing F5 BIG-IP LTM traffic management policies and maintaining security governance through Zero Trust frameworks.
Network Operations: Manage a portion of the team’s 50–100 weekly tickets. You will perform complex problem isolation, IP addressing scenarios, and maintain detailed technical documentation for all infrastructure solutions.
On-Call & Triage: Participate in a collaborative on-call rotation (roughly once every 11–12 weeks). During your rotation, you must be available to go on-site for physical triage at any of the North Georgia facilities if needed.
Technical Qualifications

Experience: Approximately 4+ years of hands-on experience in a high-availability enterprise environment. We prioritize demonstrated technical skill and logic over specific degrees or years on a resume.

Core Networking: Proficiency with Juniper or Cisco environments. (Our environment is primarily Juniper/Mist; we are happy to cross-train a Cisco expert who is eager to switch).
Security & Load Balancing: Hands-on experience with Palo Alto firewalls and F5 Load Balancers is highly preferred. Experience with Forescout is a plus.
The Cloud Pivot: A foundational understanding of AWS connectivity (VPCs, Direct Connect). If you haven’t mastered the cloud yet, you must have the aptitude to learn it quickly.
Certification Commitment: To ensure team excellence, you will be required to obtain your JNCIS and AWS Cloud Practitioner certifications within the first few months. The client will fully fund and sponsor these certifications.
Physical Requirements: Ability to lift up to 50 lbs and travel to various hospital sites within a 30-mile radius of Gainesville, GA.
Compliance: Must be a US Citizen or Permanent Resident (USC/Green Card).
What Success Looks Like

The interview process involves a “Technical Gauntlet” with the Hiring Manager, where you will be asked to whiteboard a network on the fly, draw out communication flows, and assign IP addresses in real-time. We are looking for an engineer who doesn’t just follow a manual but understands the “why” behind the packet flow.
