This is your chance to shape legendary play that lasts a lifetime.
Job Overview
The Senior Network Engineer leads Wizards of the Coast's enterprise network — datacenters, corporate offices, studios, and AWS cloud. Our stack runs on a Juniper/Mist campus fabric, a Palo Alto Networks security edge, and cloud-native AWS connectivity. You'll set technical direction, drive complex initiatives end to end, and mentor the broader team. Your work keeps the network that connects our datacenters, offices, studios, and cloud environments secure, reliable, and ready to support the teams creating our games.
Location and Work Arrangement
This role is based at our Boston, Massachusetts office and follows a hybrid schedule designed to support in-person collaboration. Employees are expected to work onsite on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, with the flexibility to work remotely or onsite on Mondays and Fridays.
What You'll Do
Own the architecture, build, and roadmap for our Juniper/Mist campus and branch infrastructure, and lead its evolution across sites and business units.
Lead the Palo Alto Networks security stack, from policy architecture to secure-by-design standards across teams.
Own end-to-end AWS cloud network implementation — Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), Transit Gateway, Direct Connect/VPN, Route 53 — and hybrid connectivity, including Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), and Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN) traffic engineering at scale.
Drive automation and AI adoption across network operations, from config deployment to AI-powered monitoring, observability, and root-cause analysis.
Be the go-to for critical issues, and mentor less-experienced engineers through code review, troubleshooting, and skill-building.
What You'll Bring
At least 10 years of experience in enterprise network engineering — routing, switching, wireless — or equivalent demonstrated experience, with deep expertise in Juniper (EX/QFX/SRX, Mist) and/or Cisco (Catalyst, Nexus), plus hands-on work with intelligent ops tools like Mist/Marvis at scale.
Expert-level Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN), and load balancing experience, including designing and building these solutions from the ground up.
Extensive Palo Alto Networks firewall experience, including policy architecture and Panorama at enterprise scale.
Proven AWS production experience — Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), Transit Gateway, Direct Connect/VPN, Route 53, security groups, CloudWatch, DNS, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), IP Address Management (IPAM) — with the judgment to make platform decisions independently.
Hands-on use of AI tools like Mist/Marvis and coding assistants (Claude, Copilot) to power automation and network ops, plus a track record of leading cross-functional work and mentoring engineers.
What Sets You Apart
Active advanced certifications: Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert (CCIE), Juniper Networks Certified Internet Expert (JNCIE), AWS Advanced Networking Specialty, or AWS Solutions Architect Professional.
Prisma Access / Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) deployment leadership, or Palo Alto Cloud Identity Engine (CIE) build ownership.
Terraform or Ansible pipelines you've built and owned in production — not just maintained.
Experience in a multi-studio, multi-business-unit (BU) entertainment or gaming environment, or another complex, highly distributed org.
