**This role requires extensive F5 and ALB/NLB Experience. Please do not apply if you do not have extensive experience in both of these areas
We are seeking an experienced AWS Networking Engineer to lead the migration of legacy F5 load balancer configurations to modern AWS Application Load Balancers (ALB) and Network Load Balancers (NLB). This is a critical initiative requiring deep networking expertise, hands-on AWS experience, and the ability to translate complex F5 configurations into scalable, cloud-native solutions.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead the migration of F5 load balancer configurations to AWS ALB and NLB environments.
- Design and implement equivalent configurations using AWS ALB, NLB, Target Groups, and Listener Rules.
- Build and configure core AWS infrastructure components including EC2, VPCs, subnets, security groups, S3, route tables, NAT gateways, and internet gateways.
- Create and maintain automation scripts and infrastructure-as-code templates (CloudFormation, Terraform, or similar) to support migration and deployment.
- Develop detailed runbooks and documentation to support the transition and future operational handoff.
- Collaborate with security, DevOps, and application teams to ensure secure, compliant, and highly available network architectures.
- Troubleshoot and resolve networking and connectivity issues throughout the migration process.
Required Qualifications:
- 5+ years of hands-on experience with AWS networking and infrastructure services.
- Deep knowledge of F5 BIG-IP load balancers, including LTM configurations and iRules.
- Proven experience with AWS ALB/NLB configuration and deployment in production environments.
- Strong scripting skills (Python, Bash, or PowerShell) to automate tasks and processes.
- Prior experience with infrastructure provisioning tools (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation) is highly desirable.
- Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently or as part of a cross-functional team.
