Job description
Senior Network Engineer (ITS Infrastructure)
Location: Greater Phoenix Metro Area
Schedule: 100% Onsite | Monday-Friday | 7:00 AM-4:00 PM
Employment Type: Contract-to-Hire
Pay Rate: Up to $70/hour depending on experience
Industry: Public Infrastructure & Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS)

Please Note: No Corp-to-Corp (C2C) arrangements. Sponsorship is not available for this opportunity.
Make a City-Wide Impact
We're partnering with one of the largest municipal transportation organizations in the Southwest to identify a Senior Network Engineer who will play a critical role in supporting and modernizing a large-scale operational technology network that powers critical public infrastructure.

This is a highly visible opportunity for a hands-on network engineer who enjoys solving complex connectivity challenges, working in the field, and helping shape the future design of a mission-critical network environment spanning more than 1,300 connected locations across a major metropolitan region.

The organization is seeking a technical leader first and foremost. While formal people management is not initially required, the right individual will have the opportunity to mentor team members, influence strategy, and potentially grow into a permanent leadership position.
What You'll Do
  • Support and maintain a large-scale network infrastructure supporting operational technology systems, surveillance devices, and field communications equipment
  • Troubleshoot complex Layer 2 and Layer 3 networking issues across wired and wireless environments
  • Manage network segmentation, VLANs, routing, switching, and connectivity across distributed locations
  • Participate in ongoing network modernization and future-state architecture initiatives
  • Work closely with engineering teams, external vendors, and stakeholders on infrastructure improvement projects
  • Review and contribute to network design documentation, diagrams, and technical standards
  • Evaluate vendor recommendations and provide technical guidance during future network redesign efforts
  • Mentor junior technical staff and serve as a trusted technical resource for the team
  • Present technical updates and recommendations to leadership and executive stakeholders in an easy-to-understand format
  • Perform both office-based and field-based troubleshooting activities throughout the metro area
Required Qualifications
  • 5+ years of hands-on network engineering experience
  • Strong expertise in:
    • Layer 2 and Layer 3 networking
    • Routing and switching
    • VLAN design and implementation
    • Network segmentation
    • Troubleshooting complex network environments
  • Experience supporting both wired and wireless network infrastructures
  • Ability to create and maintain network diagrams and technical documentation
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical audiences
  • Valid driver's license and ability to travel locally throughout the region for field support activities
  • Must be authorized to work in the United States without current or future sponsorship requirements
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with Juniper networking technologies
  • Experience with Ruggedcom or other industrial networking equipment
  • Cisco networking experience
  • Wireless mesh networking experience
  • Wi-Fi design, deployment, and troubleshooting experience
  • Experience evaluating vendor proposals and participating in infrastructure planning initiatives
  • Familiarity with operational technology (OT), intelligent transportation systems (ITS), surveillance networks, or other critical infrastructure environments
What We're Looking For
The ideal candidate is a true hands-on engineer who enjoys getting into the details of network operations and architecture. This is not a position for someone who has moved away from technology and into pure management.

We're seeking an individual who can:
  • Troubleshoot complex issues independently
  • Think strategically about future network architecture
  • Communicate effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Lead through influence rather than formal authority
  • Thrive in both office and field environments
Why This Opportunity?
  • Support one of the largest public infrastructure networks in the region
  • Direct influence on an upcoming large-scale network modernization initiative
  • Mix of operational support and strategic architecture work
  • Opportunity to work with wireless, fiber, and industrial networking technologies
  • High visibility with leadership and decision-makers
  • Clear path toward future leadership opportunities for the right individual
  • Meaningful work that directly impacts the daily lives of thousands of residents and commuters

If you're a senior network engineer looking for a role where your technical expertise will have a measurable impact on critical city-scale infrastructure, we'd love to hear from you.
