L2 Network Administrator

COMPENSATION: PHP 45,000-75,000 per month, depending on experience. Fully remote.

FDC Servers (AS30058) is a global dedicated server, colocation, and IP transit provider operating across 27+ cities. We're hiring L2 Network Administrators with solid hands-on Juniper Junos experience and some Cisco experience to support daily network operations, customer tickets, and data center network tasks.

This role suits someone with strong networking fundamentals who can investigate customer issues, run standard network checks, assist with VLAN and port work, and gather the right information before escalating complex routing or backbone issues. You should be comfortable in a ticketing environment, following procedures, documenting clearly, and communicating professionally with customers and internal teams.

This is a fully remote role on a 24/7 rotation. We have established network teams in the US and EU and are expanding coverage in the Asia/APAC time zone, so this position helps own the overnight window the other regions can't cover.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Handle L2 network tickets and customer network requests.
• - Troubleshoot customer connectivity, gateway reachability, VLAN, subnet, and port issues.
• - Review Juniper switch/router config for interfaces, VLANs, IRBs, and basic routing.

• - Add/verify VLANs, access ports, trunk ports, and customer handoffs.
