Are you passionate about deploying, optimizing, and supporting advanced networking and security solutions for enterprise and service provider customers? We are seeking a Professional Services Network Engineer to join our services organization and deliver best-in-class implementations across the full suite of Technologies, including application delivery, carrier-grade networking, and DDoS protection. As a Professional Services Engineer, you will work directly with customers throughout the project lifecycle — from solution design and deployment to validation, optimization, and knowledge transfer — ensuring successful outcomes and a high degree of customer satisfaction.

Responsibilities

• Lead and execute Professional Services engagements, including solution design, deployment, migration, and optimization.
• Deliver and configure ADC (Application Delivery Controller) solutions to provide advanced load balancing, security, and performance capabilities.

A10 Networks

Implement Carrier-Grade NAT (CGN) solutions to support IPv4 preservation, IPv6 migration, and high-scale networking environments.

A10 Networks

Deploy DDoS protection solutions (e.g., Thunder TPS / One-DDoS Protection) for multi-vector attack detection and mitigation at scale.

A10 Networks

• Provide architectural guidance on traffic-flow optimization, capacity planning, and high availability.
• Assist in migration and integration from legacy or third-party platforms (F5, Citrix NetScaler, Cisco ACE).
• Troubleshoot and resolve complex deployment issues, working with customers and internal engineering teams.
• Use tools such as protocol analyzers and traffic monitors to verify performance and security post-deployment.
• Produce professional documentation, including solution designs, implementation guides, and customer handoffs.
• Provide limited post-deployment support, including hypercare during go-lives and customer education sessions.

Requirements

• 3+ years of experience in networking, application delivery, or network security — ideally in Professional Services, consulting, or project delivery.
• Strong understanding of networking fundamentals (VLANs, VRRP/HSRP, OSPF, BGP, IPv4/IPv6, NAT) and L4-L7 application behaviour.

Demonstrated ability to implement complex solutions involving

• ADC technologies (load balancing, SSL offload, health checks, GSLB)
• Carrier-Grade NAT (CGN / CGNAT) and IPv6 transition strategies
• DDoS detection and mitigation strategies and tooling
• A10 Networks
• Experience with one or more of the following platforms preferred:
• A10 Networks
• F5 BIG-IP
• Citrix NetScaler / ADC

Cisco ACE
