Job Description :

Network Engineer, Corporate & Datacenter

Location - Bangalore, India

About the Role

Network Engineer to design, deploy, and operate the corporate and

datacenter network infrastructure that underpins our global workforce and production environments.

You will own the full lifecycle of campus and datacenter networks—from access switching and

wireless LAN to spine-leaf fabrics and next-generation firewall policy—while driving the reliability,

security, and scalability of Rubrik's on-premises infrastructure.

Key Responsibilities

Corporate & Campus Networking

• Design and maintain the corporate LAN, including access/distribution/core switching,

VLANs, STP, and QoS for our Palo Alto HQ and remote offices.

• Manage and optimize the wireless LAN infrastructure (controller-based and cloud-

managed), including site surveys, RF planning, SSID design, and client troubleshooting.

• Administer 802.1X network access control, certificate-based authentication, and guest

network segmentation.

Datacenter Networking

• Operate and evolve the datacenter network, including spine-leaf architecture, BGP,

VxLAN/EVPN overlays, and high-availability designs.

• Ensure network stability and performance across on-premises datacenter infrastructure,

proactively monitoring capacity and latency baselines.

• Partner with Server, Storage, and Platform Engineering teams on rack-and-stack

connectivity, new service deployments, and capacity expansions.

Security & Firewall (Palo Alto Networks)

• Manage Palo Alto Networks NGFW platforms (PA-Series, Panorama, SCM), including

security policy, App-ID, URL filtering, Threat Prevention, and WildFire integration.

• Administer GlobalProtect VPN and Prisma Access for remote access and enforce zero-trust

network segmentation between zones.

• Conduct firewall rule reviews, clean up unused policies, and support periodic security audits.

Reliability & Automation

• Monitor network health using observability tooling (SNMP, streaming telemetry,

NetFlow/sFlow) and drive resolution of incidents and root-cause analyses.

• Develop and maintain automation scripts and configuration management workflows (Python,

Ansible, Terraform) to reduce toil and improve consistency.

Rubrik, Inc. | Job Description

• Use AI-assisted tools to accelerate log analysis, runbook generation, and network

documentation.

Required Qualifications

• 4–6 years of hands-on enterprise network engineering experience.

• Proficiency with Palo Alto Networks NGFWs and Panorama; experience with security policy

management, zone-based segmentation, and GlobalProtect VPN.

• Solid understanding of routing and switching fundamentals: BGP, OSPF, STP/RSTP,

VLANs, LACP, and L2/L3 design.

• Experience designing and supporting enterprise wireless networks (Cisco Meraki, Aruba, or

equivalent); familiarity with 802.11ax/Wi-Fi 6 and RF optimization.

• Working knowledge of datacenter networking concepts: spine-leaf, VxLAN/EVPN, and high-

availability failover.

• Strong troubleshooting methodology—comfortable working through complex multi-layer

problems in production environments.

• Effective written and verbal communication; able to produce clear runbooks and incident

postmortems.

Preferred Qualifications

• Relevant certifications: PCNSE (Palo Alto Networks), CCNP Enterprise, CWNA/CWSP, or

equivalent.

• Experience with network automation using Python, Ansible, or Terraform.

• Familiarity with public cloud networking (AWS, Azure, or GCP) as it intersects with on-

premises connectivity (Direct Connect, ExpressRoute, VPN).

• Exposure to load balancers (F5, AVI/NSX ALB, NGINX) and application delivery in

datacenter environments.

• Experience with 802.1X / NAC platforms (Cisco ISE, Aruba ClearPass, or equivalent).

• Comfort using AI tools (e.g., Claude, Copilot) for network operations, documentation, and

automation tasks is a plus and actively encouraged.

Why Rubrik

• Work on infrastructure that protects thousands of organizations from ransomware and cyber

threats—your network is mission-critical.

• Collaborative, engineering-first culture with access to leading tools and the latitude to build

things the right way.

• Competitive compensation, equity, and comprehensive benefits.
