Job Description


  • COMPENSATION: PHP 90,000-140,000 per month, depending on experience. Fully remote.

  • FDC Servers (AS30058) is a global dedicated server, colocation, and IP transit provider operating across 27+ cities with 100+ Tbps of installed capacity. We're hiring a Senior Network Administrator with strong hands-on Juniper Junos experience and working Cisco knowledge to help run a production service-provider and data center network.

This is a hands-on production role. You'll troubleshoot complex routing and connectivity issues, safely apply changes in a live environment, support customer-facing network services, and contribute to architecture and capacity planning. You won't be redesigning the network, but you should understand the existing architecture well enough to judge how a change affects routing, redundancy, and customers. Experience in an ISP, hosting, data center, NOC, or service-provider environment is what we're after.


This is a fully remote role. We have established network teams in the US and EU and are building out coverage in the Asia/APAC time zone, so you'll own an important part of our follow-the-sun rotation.

  • - Mentor L2 staff and assist with escalations.

REQUIRED EXPERIENCE

  • Strong hands-on Juniper Junos in a live production environment.
  • - Working Cisco knowledge (IOS, IOS-XE, NX-OS / Nexus).
  • - Strong grasp of ISIS, SRv6, EVPN, IP/MPLS, BGP, RPKI, routing policy, prefix lists, route filters, and BGP best-path selection.
  • - L2 tunneling, anycast gateways, VLANs, trunk/access ports, LACP/LAG, IRB/SVI, and L2/L3 troubleshooting.
  • - Read, write, review, and safely apply Juniper set-style config.
  • - Strong IPv4/IPv6 subnetting.
  • - Troubleshooting with ping, traceroute, MTR, tcpdump, interface counters, route tables, logs, and looking-glass tools.
