Full job description

Technical Lead, IT Infrastructure
Req ID: 138373
Remote Position: Hybrid
Hiring Manager: Paul Stanners
Band: 10
Region: Asia
Country: India
State/Province: Chennai
City: Guindy, Chennai

Summary

We are seeking a proactive and detail-oriented RDL Network Administrator to manage the day-to-day operations and administration of our global Research and Development Lab (RDL) networks. Reporting directly to the Lead Network Architect, you will be responsible for the run-and-maintain aspects of our isolated, air-gapped networks across multiple HPS Design Center locations (including San Jose, Richardson, Thailand, Shanghai, SongShan Lake, Penang, Chennai, and future sites).

This role uniquely focuses on cutting-edge open networking. The majority of our RDL network infrastructure runs on SONiC (Software for Open Networking in the Cloud) deployed on Celestica’s own high-performance network switches. Furthermore, security inside the air-gap relies heavily on Zscaler technology acting as internal firewalls integrated with local VLANs for precise, policy-driven access control.

Since this environment operates under strict security isolation without typical enterprise automated management tools, this role requires a hands-on, highly disciplined administrator who excels at executing manual and semi-automated workflows securely and consistently. Traditional Cisco-based networking skills are considered secondary to expertise in SONiC, Linux networking, and Zscaler-driven zero-trust security.

This role requires regular on-site presence within the RDL environment and participation in a 24x7 on-call rotation supporting global RDL infrastructure, including after-hours incident response and scheduled maintenance activities.

Core Responsibilities

1. SONiC & Open Network Operations

SONiC Infrastructure Management: Monitor, configure, and maintain the health, performance, and uptime of Celestica’s proprietary open network switches running the SONiC operating system.
Configuration & Segmentation: Implement localized VLAN adjustments, IP address allocations, and switch port provisioning within the SONiC environment to isolate multi-tenant engineering projects.
Routine Maintenance: Execute hardware diagnostics, physical cabling checks, and SONiC OS/firmware updates following strict maintenance window guidelines.
Secondary Infrastructure Support: Perform operational support, troubleshooting, and maintenance of legacy secondary network components, including Check Point 3980 firewalls, Silver Peak SD-WAN appliances, and Cisco Catalyst 9400/9200 switches as required.

2. Zscaler & Internal Security Policy Administration

Zero-Trust Internal Firewalling: Administer and configure Zscaler ZTNA / App Connectors to serve as internal firewalls, establishing secure boundaries and controlling data flow across isolated local VLANs.
Access Control & Identity: Provision local user accounts, configure role-based permissions, and manage decentralized credentials on Linux-based jump hosts.
Remote Session Security: Manage secure engineer connections using CyberArk vPAM (Virtual Privileged Access Management).
Security Auditing: Conduct weekly audits of active user sessions, ACL configurations, and local accounts to maintain an uncompromising security posture.

3. Data Transfer & Repository Sync Operations

Multi-Tier Sync Execution: Execute and monitor the secure transfer of "transfer bundles" containing OS packages (Rocky Linux, Ubuntu, CentOS, etc.), drivers, and software libraries across the physical air gap.
Repository Services Administration: Ensure repository services remain operational, synchronized, and accessible to authorized systems within segmented and isolated RDL environments.
Integrity Validation: Verify cryptographic hashes (SHA-256 checksums) of all data packages moving from the Global Repository Server to the RDL Local Repository Server.

4. Support Ticket Resolution & SLA Adherence

End-User Support: Act as the primary technical point of contact for HPS design engineers needing open network troubleshooting, VLAN routing resolution, or new package requests.
Ticketing Operations: Process, update, and resolve secure lab support tickets in accordance with established Service Level Agreements (SLAs).
Escalation Point: Identify complex open-networking bugs, design deviations, or routing limitations and escalate them directly to the Lead Network Architect.

5. Compliance & Environment Enforcement

Software Auditing: Conduct regular logical audits of systems within the RDL to ensure strictly banned corporate agents (e.g., CrowdStrike, Threat Locker, Big Fix, ServiceNow Agents, ClearPass NAC) are not installed.
Asset Tracking: Maintain a flawless inventory of all HPS-owned assets inside the RDL physical rooms, including servers, switches, wireless access points (Aruba 755), and connected lab machines.

Knowledge/Skills/Competencies

Required Technical Skills:

Network & Security Hardware: Practical experience configuring and troubleshooting Layer 2 and Layer 3 network environments including VLANs, routing, ACLs, packet capture

analysis, and protocol troubleshooting using tools such as Wireshark and tcpdump.

Monitoring & Visibility: Experience with SNMP-based monitoring and alerting platforms such as SolarWinds, including device health monitoring, performance analysis, fault

identification, and capacity trending.

Linux System Administration: Mid-to-senior level Linux administration experience including user management, shell scripting, package management, service administration,

repository hosting, and network troubleshooting.

Access Tools: Experience working with remote access tools such as Zscaler ZTNA / App Connectors and Privilege Access Management solutions (specifically CyberArk).

Virtualization Administration: Experience provisioning, maintaining, and troubleshooting virtual machines, clustered hosts, storage resources, and virtual networking within VMware vSphere, Nutanix AHV, and/or Microsoft Hyper-V environments.
Air-Gap Protocols: Working knowledge of secure file transfer protocols (SFTP, SCP, rsync) and security scanning methodologies.

Preferred Certifications:

CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Associate)
Check Point Certified Security Administrator (CCSA)
CompTIA Security+ or Linux+
CyberArk Certified Trustee or Defender

Soft Skills & Working Style:

High Operational Discipline: Ability to strictly adhere to Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) without cutting corners, even during urgent troubleshooting.
Excellent Communicator: Strong written and verbal communication skills, necessary for translating technical issues to designers and coordinating with corporate security teams.
Multi-Tasker: Capable of balancing ticket requests from multiple global labs concurrently while maintaining accurate records.

Physical Demands

Duties of this position are performed in a normal office environment.
Duties may require extended periods of sitting and sustained visual concentration on a computer monitor or on numbers and other detailed data. Repetitive manual movements (e.g., data entry, using a computer mouse, using a calculator, etc.) are frequently required.

Education & Experience

Bachelor’s degree in Network Administration, Information Technology, Computer Science, or equivalent hands-on experience.
4+ years of experience in network administration or system administration, preferably managing secure, segmented, or laboratory networks.
Overall 14+years of work experience is required.
