Job Summary

As a Senior Technical Engineer for SASE & SD-WAN, you will be a key technical resource responsible for the architecture, deployment, and optimization of our global network fabric. This role requires a blend of deep routing expertise and a modern 'security-first' mindset to bridge the gap between traditional networking and cloud-native security, ensuring users connect to applications securely and efficiently regardless of location.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the architecture and design of global SD-WAN overlays and Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) integrations, including ZTNA, CASB, and SWG.

  • Orchestrate the migration from legacy MPLS/VPN architectures to agile, software-defined solutions, ensuring minimal disruption.

  • Proactively collaborate with security teams to implement and enforce Zero Trust principles across the wide area network.

  • Act as the final point of escalation for complex network outages, applying advanced problem-solving to identify root causes and provide practical solutions.

  • Analyze traffic patterns and application performance to fine-tune Forward Error Correction (FEC) and Quality of Service (QoS) policies for optimal user experience.

  • Develop automation scripts using Python, Ansible, or Terraform to streamline repetitive configuration tasks and support Infrastructure as Code (IaC) deployments.

  • Challenge existing processes curiously and positively to simplify network operations and improve overall service delivery.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of experience in Network Engineering, with a minimum of 3 years focused on SD-WAN and/or SASE technologies.

  • Advanced, hands-on experience with SD-WAN platforms such as Cisco Viptela/Velocloud, Palo Alto Prisma SD-WAN, or Fortinet.

  • Mastery of complex routing protocols including BGP and OSPF, and tunneling protocols like IPsec and GRE.

  • Demonstrated experience with SASE components including ZTNA (Zero Trust Network Access), SWG (Secure Web Gateway), CASB (Cloud Access Security Broker), and FWaaS (Firewall as a Service).

  • Strong understanding of cloud networking concepts within AWS, Azure, or GCP (e.g., Direct Connect, ExpressRoute, Transit Gateways).

Preferred Qualifications

  • Professional-level certifications such as CCNP/CCIE (Enterprise or Security), PCNSE, or equivalent provider-specific SASE certifications.

  • Proficiency with network monitoring and deep-packet analysis tools (e.g., ThousandEyes, Wireshark, SolarWinds).

  • Experience developing automation scripts (Python, Ansible, Terraform) for network infrastructure.

  • Proven ability to build trusted relationships and communicate complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.

Our Commitment

We’re trailblazers that dream big, take risks, and challenge cybersecurity’s status quo. It’s simple: we can’t accomplish our mission without diverse teams innovating, together.

We are committed to providing reasonable accommodations for all qualified individuals with a disability. If you require assistance or accommodation due to a disability or special need, please contact us at accommodations@paloaltonetworks.com.
