Fully Remote Principal Network Engineer | Base £90k-£110k | 9% Bonus
We’re partnering with a global technology organisation investing heavily in its next-generation infrastructure and cloud capabilities. As part of an exciting growth journey, they’re looking for an experienced Principal Network Engineer
This is a fully remote role, offering the flexibility to work from anywhere in the UK while leading a talented, distributed engineering team.
This isn’t your typical Network Engineering role!
It is hands-on, looking for someone to take technical leadership of the network infrastructure supporting their internal engineering platforms.
What you’ll be working on:
- Routing, switching, firewalls & load balancing
- Private connectivity across on-prem and public cloud
- Setting architecture, technical direction & engineering standards
- Solving complex networking challenges across multiple platform teams
The key? You’ll be the most senior technical lead for network engineering, but still very much hands-on! They’re looking for someone who can think beyond traditional networking, with a real focus on automation, scalability and reducing manual intervention.
If you’re a strong Network Engineer who enjoys getting into the detail while influencing the bigger picture, I’d love to have a chat!
What you’ll need:
- Extensive experience in enterprise network engineering and architecture.
- Previous leadership or management experience within Network Engineering.
- Strong knowledge of Cisco, Juniper and Palo Alto technologies.
- Experience with BGP, VXLAN, LAN/WAN
- Exposure to AWS, Azure and/or GCP environments.
- Scripting or automation experience with Python, Bash or PowerShell
This is an opportunity to combine hands-on engineering with leadership in a business where technology is central to its growth. You’ll have the autonomy to influence technical strategy, develop a high-performing team and play a key role in shaping the future of the organisation’s enterprise network.
