Role purpose:

The Server and Networks team is a core part of client’s infrastructure function. Focusing primarily on on-premise networking and server hardware, there is also a strong responsibility within the team to manage the zScaler configuration across the organisation.

• Manage and maintain the configuration of clients existing zScaler deployment, including ZIA, ZPA, ZDX, ZCC et al
• Assist the platform team in cloud-to-onprem networking requirements, such as Site to Site VPNs and routing, up to and including edge networking within Azure (Firewall, NSGs)
• Collaborate with the Security Team to support best practice network security and ZTNA initiatives
• Create and maintain comprehensive documentation regarding the server and network estate, including high and low level information (diagrams, asset registers)
• Participate in on-call rotations and provide out-of-hours support when required
• Attend sites globally as required, to help maintain on-premise deployments
