Lead Cloud Network Engineer at Experian

As a Lead Cloud Network Engineer reporting to the Manager of Cloud Network Engineering. You will architect and engineer cloud-native and hybrid networking solutions across AWS, Azure, and other public cloud platforms. You will design VPC/VNet architectures, connectivity patterns, and shared network services using Infrastructure as Code and automation-first principles. You will work with cloud platform engineers, network engineers, security teams, and application teams to ensure that network services are available, resilient, secure, and consumable through self-service interfaces. Your work will directly improve our ability to deliver reliable connectivity, enforce network governance, and support large-scale cloud adoption. Responsibilities: Cloud & Hybrid Network Architecture • Design and maintain cloud networking architectures, including-AWS VPCs, Azure VNets, subnets, routing tables, NAT, IGW, and firewalls. -Hub-and-spoke, transit VPC/VNet, and multi-account/multi-subscription models. • Architect and operate hybrid connectivity solutions:-AWS Direct Connect, Azure ExpressRoute. -Site-to-Site VPN, Client VPN, and backup connectivity patterns. • Design and support routing strategies using BGP, static routing, and route propagation across hybrid and multi-cloud environments. • Implement shared network services, such as:-Transit gateways / virtual WAN. -Centralized ingress/egress. -DNS, NTP, IPAM, and firewall services. Infrastructure as Code & Automation. • Architect and maintain network infrastructure as code using:-Terraform and CloudFormation. -Modular, reusable network components and blueprints. • Automate provisioning, configuration, and lifecycle management of cloud networking resources. • Build reusable network service modules that can be consumed by application and platform teams through self-service workflows. • Integrate network automation into CI/CD pipelines and GitOps workflows.Security, Governance & Observability • Embed network security and governance controls into IaC for segmentation, routing controls, firewall policies, and traffic inspection. • Partner with security teams on Zero Trust and least-privilege network access models and secure hybrid and third-party connectivity. • Implement network observability, logging, and monitoring for performance, availability, and troubleshooting. • Support compliance requirements through standardized, auditable network designs.Platform Collaboration & Enablement • Collaborate with cloud platform, application, and SRE teams to:-Define network patterns aligned with cloud-native best practices. -Allow scalable onboarding of new workloads and environments. • Provide guidance and technical leadership on cloud networking best practices. • Contribute to internal documentation, reference architectures, and design standards. • Improve developer experience by simplifying network usage through APIs, templates, and automation.
