The Opportunity:
CACI is seeking a Network Engineer who will provide assistance in all aspects of network management from network design through implementation, maintenance, and upgrading of existing networks; Analyzes design, specifications, and related documents; Implements communication system requirements to support the distributed functionality of a software engineering environment; Analyzes network characteristics (e.g. traffic connect time, transmission speeds, packet sizes and throughput), troubleshoots problems and recommends procurement of and/or modifications to network components.

Responsibilities:

• Minimize network latency and maximize data throughput through design analysis and network performance monitoring tools
• Develops algorithms used in modules or incorporated into models associated with the research and development of technologies and systems.
• Ensures that all material received is inspected for evidence of tampering and, if any is found, submits a report of suspected physical incident immediately
• Configure and maintain organization's network diagrams and accreditations.
• Integrate hardware and software to satisfy ISO 9000 requirements and other DoD/IC regulations.
• Design, integrate, test, and deploy solutions to established network issues.
• Optimize end-to-end system performance and dataflow management.
• Coordinate with appropriate dataflow organizations and end-customer recipients, follow-on data repositories and tasking organizations and mitigate potential adverse impacts on system-wide dataflow
• Implement specific network solutions to support server requirements to include load-balancing, VPN’s, firewall contexts, Traffic Shapping Voice over IP (VOIP), GRE Tunneling, IP Security (IPSec) IP Encryption and Media over IP (MoIP), and network address translation (NAT) where appropriate
• Coordinate with the system engineering and dataflow efforts to ensure proper mission operations to minimize down time.
• Design solutions, integrate, configure, deploy, test and provide ongoing maintenance for numerous types of network devices, interfaces and methodologies

• Reports any known or suspected COMSEC incidents immediately
• Perform configuration, test, deployment, and maintenance to all network equipment.
• Validate new and existing dataflow and data formats,
• Manage assigned tasks and provide guidance to junior Network Engineers.
• Facilitate the implementation of high-speed, scalable, fault-tolerant network topologies as applicable to WAN and LAN design.
• Configure and optimize the network to connect various front-end and back-end components
• Lead large efforts of dynamic requirements and scale
• Resolve complex network problems, operate network analyzers, WAN test equipment and network simulators
• Assists System engineers and cross organizational teams to define requirements.

Required:

• Active TS/SCI with Poly
• ​ Proficiency with routing and switching technologies
• Familiarity with firewalls, VPNs, IDS/IPS, and network security standards
• Experience with cloud networking
• Skilled in troubleshooting complex network issues and developing solutions
• Python
• Ansible
• IAT level 3 cert is required
