Summary

Quality Assurance and Oversight

  • Perform pre shipment quality assurance reviews of network device configurations across Fortinet, Juniper, and Cradlepoint platforms
  • Serve as the final technical review and quality gate before devices are released for shipment
  • Validate configurations against detailed multi step runbooks and standards to identify errors, omissions, or deviations
  • Provide real time oversight and coaching to engineers during staging and build activities without directly performing configurations

Runbook and Process Ownership

  • Review, validate, and continuously improve technical runbooks covering the full device build lifecycle
  • Ensure runbooks accurately reflect the current thirty five step configuration standard
  • Update documentation immediately when issues are discovered so lessons learned are captured and reused
  • Drive strong change control discipline by ensuring deviations are documented, reviewed, and approved

Technical Documentation and Knowledge Management

  • Develop and maintain clear technical documentation that engineers can follow without prior project context
  • Document the ecosystem of systems involved in the build process, including sixteen source systems and approximately twenty five required data points per device
  • Create templates, checklists, and reference materials that reduce risk and improve consistency in a highly manual environment

Customer and Cross Functional Engagement

  • Communicate quality assurance status, readiness, and outcomes to internal and customer stakeholders
  • Provide written and verbal updates on findings, exceptions, and resolutions
  • Partner with project managers, logistics teams, and senior engineers throughout the device build and shipping lifecycle

Required Experience

  • Demonstrated depth in one or more of the following:
    • Runbook creation, ownership, and execution in real deployment environments
    • Technical documentation that engineers can reliably execute
    • Quality assurance or quality process ownership in a network engineering context
  • Experience with at least one of the following deployment backgrounds:
    • Large scale circuit rollouts including cellular, DIA, or WAN
    • Enterprise firewall deployments across multiple sites
    • Enterprise routing and switching deployments
  • Eight or more years of progressive network engineering experience with senior engineer or architect level exposure
  • Strong foundational understanding of networking including circuits, routing, switching, VLAN design, and centralized management platforms
  • Strong change control mindset with an emphasis on process discipline and quality outcomes
  • Excellent written communication skills and customer facing professionalism

Preferred Experience

  • Experience with FortiManager or similar centralized network management platforms
  • Familiarity with Fortinet, Juniper, or Cradlepoint environments
  • Experience supporting large scale, repeatable network deployment programs
