  • Collaborate closely with CBS's networking teams supporting CBS broadcasting shows, Sports, and News divisions.

Provide network design expertise with:
  • OSPF, BGP, Multicast, route filters, AWS Direct Connect/Cloud connectivity routing
  • Basic understanding of FW (Firepower and Linux)
  • Partner with existing internal advisor (Steve, former Paramount employee?) who originally helped build out the network environment.

Desired Background:
  • Strong hands-on Cisco routing/switching expertise.
  • Experience architecting complex network environments.
  • Familiarity with broadcast or media network environments preferred.
  • Ability to work independently and adapt quickly to a dynamic, project-heavy environment.
