Position Overview
Extropy is currently recruiting for a fulltime Sr. Network Engineer with 7+ years of experience in core network routing and switching. Ideal candidates have active JNCIE or CCIE certifications. However, lower level certified people will be considered with appropriate experiences and skill sets.
Qualified candidates will be hired into full time roles with Extropy and will be dedicated to supporting our customer, Juniper Networks.

You will work closely with the Juniper account teams to position Juniper with the Army. Candiates who have an Army background or have consulted with the Army at an SI will be a plus.
