We’re hiring a Network Engineer to support and maintain the infrastructure of a national Australian telecommunications provider, one of our key clients. This role is remote-first, but applicants must be based in Metro Manila to attend occasional in-person meetings or team sessions when required.

This position offers the chance to work on a sophisticated network, contribute to key infrastructure projects, and collaborate closely with experienced engineers. It's a hands-on role that involves troubleshooting, deployment, and automation—perfect for someone with a service provider mindset who enjoys working across a range of technologies.

• Configure, monitor, and maintain routers, switches, and firewalls in a live production environment
• Troubleshoot and resolve network performance issues and outages
• Manage and secure VPNs, firewalls, and access control systems
• Assist in the maintenance and deployment of containerised software within the network
• Support network expansion, upgrades, and ongoing optimisation
• Work with routing protocols, especially BGP, as part of daily operations
• Provide support for Mikrotik hardware and NMS platforms such as Zabbix or Observium
• Maintain clear documentation of configurations, workflows, and internal tools
• Contribute to scripting and automation of network-related processes (Perl or Python)
• Ensure compliance with internal security guidelines and operational standards
  

• Proven experience as a Network Engineer, ideally in a service provider environment
• Strong background in routing and switching; BGP experience is essential
• Familiarity with Mikrotik routers and/or experience using Zabbix or Observium for monitoring
• Exposure to BNGs (Broadband Network Gateways) is highly regarded
• Working knowledge of Perl or Python (or the ability to adapt quickly to either)
• Basic understanding of DNS administration, with DNS-over-HTTPS experience considered a plus
• Experience writing, building, and deploying Docker images
• Experience with open-source network monitoring tools will be well regarded
• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently in a remote team setup
• Clear and confident communication, particularly when liaising with Australian-based teams
• Based in Metro Manila with the ability to attend occasional in-person meetings when needed
  

• Remote-first role with flexibility and trust
• Opportunity to work with a high-profile Australian telco on meaningful, large-scale infrastructure
• Be part of a supportive, skilled team that values knowledge-sharing and continuous improvement
• Competitive compensation, with room for growth and skill development
• No commute, more focus—work from where you're most effective
