Booz Allen Hamilton
Senior Network Architect
Job Number: R0230628
Opportunity A well‑designed network is critical to move data and enable the Department of Defense (DoD) to achieve their missions. Crafting the right network, with the right equipment and software, requires a combination of technical skills and careful planning. That’s why we need a seasoned Network Engineer to develop the exact network the DoD needs.
Responsibilities As a Network Engineer on our team, you’ll use your experience in network design and architecture, system interoperability, OSI model, network transport layers, multi‑protocol label switching, gateway protocol, and virtual routing and forwarding to support the nation’s defense and respond to evolving adversaries. You’ll develop enterprise‑wide infrastructure design, troubleshoot and resolve complex network issues, analyze current working infrastructures, and increase security, reliability, and availability for mission‑critical network systems. You’ll guide our team of problem‑solvers to help the DoD evolve and deploy new capabilities and technologies. Your knowledge of enterprise‑level network protocols, equipment, emerging technology, and configurations will help optimize client operations and modernization. Using your experience in software and hardware firewalls, Cisco hardware, Palo Alto firewalls, Juniper hardware, and optical infrastructure networking, you’ll serve as a trusted advisor to clients on mission‑critical projects.
