Job Description
Tower Lead - Wireless Networking
Pune, Maharashtra

Job Summary

Seniority and Profile • Expert-level datacenter network engineer with deep hands-on implementation and troubleshooting capability. • Expected to operate at the level normally associated with senior enterprise or service-provider network experts, without requiring the role description to reference specific certifications. • Able to work independently, challenge weak assumptions constructively, and turn ambiguous technical requirements into executable plans. • Proven experience in very large enterprise, service-provider or hyperscale-style environments. Hyperscaler experience is a strong advantage. • Strong ownership mindset, high urgency, and willingness to prove capability quickly through delivery quality. • Comfortable working in high-pressure production environments, including out-of-hours and weekend change windows when required. 4. Core Responsibilities • Support datacenter network build and migration activities across Cisco, Arista and associated routing environments. • Review HLD/LLD material and identify implementation gaps, dependency gaps, risk points and required clarifications. • Prepare or validate low-level implementation plans, migration runbooks, method of procedure documents, rollback plans and validation plans. • Configure, validate and troubleshoot datacenter switching, routing, fabric and edge network components as directed by Fiserv. • Support migration from legacy Cisco/Nexus paths and current Arista/Cisco/NFV environments into target datacenter architectures. • Support secure DMZ, firewall, ADC, NFV, cloud and client connectivity integration from a network perspective. • Drive practical issue resolution during build, test, cutover and stabilization phases. • Create and maintain clear technical documentation, including as-built records, topology updates, port mappings, route/VRF/VLAN mapping and handover material. • Collaborate with Product Engineering, security, firewall, ADC, operations, application, carrier and client-facing teams. • Use automation, scripting or structured tooling where practical to improve repeatability, validation and documentation quality. 5. Required Technical Capabilities • Very strong hands-on experience with Cisco Nexus datacenter switching platforms. • Very strong hands-on experience with Arista EOS datacenter fabric environments. • Strong spine-leaf, fabric, aggregation/access, secure DMZ and datacenter interconnect understanding. • Advanced routing capability across BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, route policy, redistribution, segmentation and traffic engineering. • Strong practical experience with VRFs, VLANs, trunks, LACP, port channels, MLAG/vPC-style designs and redundant datacenter connectivity. • Working knowledge of MPLS, VXLAN/EVPN, FabricPath or equivalent datacenter/transport technologies where relevant. • Experience with migration of production traffic paths, overlapping services, NAT dependencies, client/application flows and rollback planning. • Awareness of Palo Alto firewall, F5 ADC, NFV and cloud connectivity integration requirements, sufficient to coordinate effectively with specialist teams. • Experience with AWS/Azure connectivity concepts such as Direct Connect, ExpressRoute, VPN routing and cloud route control. • Strong troubleshooting skills across L1-L4, routing, forwarding, asymmetric paths, MTU, packet loss, failover and performance issues. • Ability to produce high-quality implementation documentation and evidence suitable for change governance and operational handover. 6. Preferred Capabilities • Experience in hyperscale, global financial services, large service-provider or similarly complex network environments. • Experience with payment environments, PCI-sensitive segmentation or highly controlled production networks. • Experience with SD-WAN, internet edge, cloud backbone or international backbone environments. • Automation capability using Python, Ansible, APIs or similar tooling. • Experience improving operational methods, runbooks, validation tooling and rep
