Role Description We are seeking a Network Architecture & Discovery Lead to command the technical intake and discovery phase of a massive network consolidation program. Following a series of telecommunications acquisitions, this role owns the pipeline that translates complex, semi-structured legacy network data into validated, target-state architectural baselines. The position leads a specialized team of ETL data analysts, an infrastructure simulation engineer, and network technicians. Acting as the bridge between technical reality and executive business requirements, the role governs the "Definition of Ready," ensuring legacy environments are fully mapped, classified, and architecturally sound before being handed over to the migration factory for execution. This role requires a minimum 5-hour daily overlap with EST (Eastern Standard Time) to support collaboration with global stakeholders. Responsibilities - Direct the upstream data team to extract, normalize, and validate legacy network configurations from acquired companies, hunting for IP conflicts and hardware limitations. - Analyze complex, custom-designed legacy networks and map them to our standardized target-state architectural archetypes. - Lead targeted interviews with client SMEs to determine if complex routing or firewall configurations are driven by strict regulatory mandates (PCI-DSS, HIPAA, SOC 2) or historical design choices. - Write and maintain the Master Requirements Document, locking the technical scope and delivery baseline for the migration execution teams. - Consolidate fragmented discoveries into centralized executive dashboards, providing the PMO and client leadership with a single pane of glass for technical debt and migration readiness. Qualifications - 7+ years of experience as an Enterprise Network Architect, Solutions Architect, or Technical Lead in complex telecom, ISP, or M&A network environments. - Must deeply understand enterprise networking concepts (BGP, OSPF, SD-WAN, Firewalls, SIP) to challenge local engineers and translate technical debt into business risk. (Active or expired CCNP is a strong plus). - Proven ability to interview technical SMEs, extract business requirements, and translate them into formal architecture blueprints using Visio or Lucidchart. - Experience governing technical intake pipelines and managing dependencies using tools like Jira and Confluence. Benefits - Culture of relentless performance: join an unstoppable technology development team with a 99% project success rate and more than 30% year-over-year revenue growth. - Competitive pay and benefits: enjoy a comprehensive compensation and benefits package, including health insurance, language courses, and a relocation program. - ForeverRemote work culture: make the most of the flexibility that comes with remote work. - Growth mindset: reap the benefits of a range of professional development opportunities, including certification programs, mentorship and talent investment programs, internal mobility, and internship opportunities. - Global impact: collaborate on impactful projects for top global clients and shape the future of industries. - Welcoming multicultural environment: be a part of a dynamic, global team and thrive in an inclusive and supportive work environment with open communication and regular team-building company social events. - Social sustainability values: join our sustainable business practices focused on five pillars, including IT education, community empowerment, fair operating practices, environmental sustainability, and gender equality.
