Network Engineer (SD-WAN)

Location: Onsite – Klang Valley
Work Schedule: Full-time onsite + mandatory off-hours cutovers (nights & weekends)

Job Summary

Urgent requirement for a hands‑on Network Engineer (SD‑WAN) to execute a large‑scale SD‑WAN migration across 478 bank branches and offices. You will join a 5‑person engineering team (1 Lead + 4 Engineers) and be responsible for producing Low‑Level Designs (LLD), cutover runbooks, and performing physical/virtual cutovers. The bank will decide whether the SD‑WAN fabric is Cisco (Viptela/Catalyst) or Fortinet (FortiGate SD‑WAN) – you must be ready to work with either vendor. Banking compliance (audit trails, change control, segregated networks) is non‑negotiable.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop Low‑Level Design (LLD) documents from high‑level architecture, covering IP addressing, routing (BGP/OSPF), QoS, security policies, and high availability for each site profile.
• Prepare detailed cutover runbooks per site/batch, including pre‑checks, step‑by‑step migration sequences, rollback procedures, and post‑cutover validation.
• Execute migration/cutover activities during mandatory off‑hours (nights & weekends) for up to 478 sites across Klang Valley and nationwide.
• Troubleshoot SD‑WAN edge connectivity, overlay routing, application steering, and failover scenarios in real‑time during cutovers.
• Adhere strictly to the bank’s change management process – raise change requests, document every action, and ensure audit trail completeness.
• Collaborate with the Lead Network Engineer to align LLDs with bank security policies (e.g., BNM RMiT, PCI DSS if applicable) and network segregation requirements.
• Provide post‑cutover handover to Level 2 support teams, including updated network diagrams and configuration archives.

Requirements (Mandatory)

Experience

• Minimum 5–6 years of hands‑on network engineering, with at least 2 years focused on SD‑WAN deployments (migration, cutover, troubleshooting).

Certification (active at start)

• CCNP Enterprise (or CCNP Service Provider) OR Fortinet NSE 7 (SD‑WAN track).

SD‑WAN Proficiency

• Proven experience in at least one major SD‑WAN platform (Cisco Viptela/Catalyst SD‑WAN or Fortinet FortiGate SD‑WAN).
• Must be ready to work with either Cisco or Fortinet based on the bank’s final vendor decision.

Documentation

• Demonstrated ability to write LLDs and cutover runbooks for multi‑site migrations (100+ locations).

Banking / Finance

• Prior experience in banking, financial services, or similarly regulated environment (change control, audit trails, segregated networks).

Onsite & Hours

• Full‑time onsite in Klang Valley. No remote option for this SOW.
• Mandatory off‑hours cutovers (nights, weekends) – no exceptions.

Nice‑to‑Have

• Experience migrating 200+ sites in a single project.
• Familiarity with Cisco Catalyst Center or FortiManager/FortiAnalyzer.
• Scripting knowledge (Python/Ansible) for configuration validation or pre‑checks.
• Understanding of Malaysian banking regulations (BNM RMiT, PCI DSS, ITRM).

Working Conditions

• Onsite, office‑based in Klang Valley (specific location to be confirmed). Occasional travel to other sites within Klang Valley may be required.
• High‑pressure, compliance‑driven environment – all changes must be approved via the bank’s Change Advisory Board (CAB).
• Contract duration aligned to project SOW (no fixed end date stated; prepare for intensive 3–6 month migration phase).
