Position Title: Network Automation Engineer
Location: Panama City Beach, FL
Clearance: Top Secret (preferred) or Secret (required)
Position Overview
ISPA Technology is looking for a Network Automation Engineer to support a technically diverse environment spanning firewalls, NSX-T, packet transport, switching, IP address management, blueprint management, and network monitoring. This role is for the engineer who sees network infrastructure not as a collection of one-off devices, but as a system that should be automated, observable, repeatable, and intentionally designed. You will help create maintainable automation patterns for network configuration, deployment, sustainment, and change control-especially through Ansible and Git-centered workflows.
What You Will Do
- Automate network provisioning, configuration updates, compliance checks, and sustainment tasks across switching, firewall, and transport environments.
- Use Ansible and Git-based workflows to standardize network changes and reduce configuration drift.
- Support operational engineering across NSX-T, switching infrastructure, IPAM processes, and network management / monitoring toolchains.
- Partner with systems and cyber teams to implement secure, supportable network baselines and recoverable change processes.
- Build documentation and reusable engineering patterns for deployment, configuration validation, rollback, and troubleshooting.
- Contribute to blueprint management and operational planning for evolving network services.
Technical Environment
- Ansible and Git for network automation and configuration control
- Firewall, NSX-T, switching, and network transport concepts
- IPAM, configuration baselining, and network monitoring
- Automation scripting for network operations
- Network troubleshooting and change validation
- Documentation of network procedures and engineering artifacts
Required Qualifications
- Experience with network engineering in enterprise, data center, or mission-support environments.
- Hands-on automation experience using Ansible or equivalent tooling for network configuration and sustainment.
- Strong understanding of switching, routing, firewall, or overlay networking concepts.
- Experience using version control for infrastructure or network change management.
- Ability to troubleshoot across device configuration, connectivity, and automation workflow issues.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with NSX-T, IPAM, blueprint-driven infrastructure, or network monitoring platforms.
- Exposure to secure hardening standards and compliance-aware network operations.
- Familiarity with platform or cloud-adjacent network integration patterns.
Why ISPA Technology
- Work on meaningful defense and mission-support engineering problems with experienced technical teams.
- Contribute across automation, cyber, platforms, networking, integration, and test-not just one narrow lane.
- Join a culture that values ownership, technical depth, curiosity, and practical execution.
- Live and work in Panama City Beach, Florida, with direct access to a growing technical mission hub.
We are looking for engineers who combine technical depth with practical execution-people who can turn complexity into clarity, and design into dependable results.
