About the Role

We are seeking a highly skilled Principal Network & Security Engineer with deep expertise in FortiGate firewalls to support a key client project. This role is both strategic and hands-on, combining the implementation of FortiGate within an existing Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) disaster recovery environment with upskilling and knowledge transfer to the in-house engineering team.

Leverage automation tools, such as Terraform, to streamline firewall deployment and management
Improve DR firewall architecture with scalability and compliance in mind
Provide hands-on training and mentorship to the client's internal team on FortiGate and related networking practices
Create repeatable playbooks and documentation to support long-term sustainability
Collaborate closely with the client's principal GCP engineer and wider infrastructure team
Engage with stakeholders to align on timelines, priorities, and deliverables

What You'll Bring

Proven track record as a Principal or Lead Network & Security Engineer with hands-on implementation experience
Deep expertise with FortiGate firewalls and their automation capabilities
Strong background in enterprise networking, including L2-L4 routing, security policies, and firewall design
Experience with cloud networking, ideally across Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Google Cloud
Proficiency with automation tools such as Terraform or equivalent
Demonstrated ability to train and mentor teams with effective knowledge transfer
Familiarity with regulated environments, such as ISO and enterprise or government contexts, desirable

Duration & Scope

Phase 1, months 0-3: Implement FortiGate in OCI DR, establish secure replication, and ensure compatibility with the existing design
Phase 2, months 3-6: Deliver training, knowledge transfer, and handover to the in-house team

Why This Role

This is an opportunity to make a measurable impact, bringing clarity and best practice into a mission-critical environment. You will be the go-to expert, shaping both the immediate technical delivery and the longer-term capabilities of the client's engineering function.

Requirements

FortiGate expert with hands-on deployment and automation experience
Enterprise networking across L2-L4, security policies, and firewall design
OCI and GCP networking experience
Terraform or equivalent IaC proficiency
Ability to build repeatable playbooks and documentation
Strong stakeholder engagement and communication skills

Timeframe & Location
