Lead Network Architect is required by a leading technology consultancy. The role blends architecture and vendor/technology evaluation with hands-on delivery. It would suit someone who enjoys designing complex, high-performance datacentre environments and then overseeing project delivery. Furthermore, you’d be responsible for end-to-end DC connectivity projects across network, compute, storage and security — from requirements and HLD/LLD through to production implementation. Strong EVPN/VXLAN experience is key, along with exposure to Cisco/Arista (plus Fortinet/Palo Alto), global DC connectivity and resilient inter-DC design. Ideally you will be CCIE (or equivalent) level engineer with 10 years’ experience who is technically curious, comfortable testing and validating new technologies, and confident collaborating across Linux, dev and security teams.
