Network Automation Engineer
Job Description
We are looking for a Network Automation Engineer to revolutionize how we manage our security and network infrastructure. Your mission is to eliminate manual configuration tasks by building automated workflows for Palo Alto Networks firewalls and core network devices.
You will bridge the gap between traditional Network Engineering and DevOps, leveraging tools like Ansible, Terraform, and Python to manage a global security estate. If you believe that "doing a task twice means it should be automated," this is the role for you.
Qualifications :
Required Technical Skills :
● Palo Alto Expertise: Deep knowledge of PAN-OS, Panorama, and Global Protect.
● Programming/Scripting: Proficiency in Python (specifically libraries like pan-os-python, Netmiko, or Requests).
● Automation Tools: Advanced experience with Ansible and Terraform.
● Version Control: Expertise in Git (branching, merging, pull requests).
● API Knowledge: Strong understanding of RESTful APIs, JSON, and XML.
Experience & Education :
● 3+ years in a Network/Security role with a heavy focus on automation.
● Experience managing firewalls in public cloud environments (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
● Familiarity with Linux environments and containerization (Docker/Kubernetes) is a major plus.
