We are seeking an accomplished Senior Broadcast Network Engineer to support a major transformation of broadcast technology and infrastructure. This role plays a critical part in designing, building, and scaling a next-generation broadcast IP environment from the ground up.

The engineer will initially support the overhaul and deployment of new broadcast systems and, upon conversion to full‑time, will help build and lead a growing engineering team as the environment expands.

This opportunity is ideal for a high-level network engineer with strong experience in broadcast environments, large‑scale IP networks, and automation.

Key Responsibilities

• Partner with SDN and Infrastructure teams to create low‑latency, deterministic, and resilient solutions for live production.
• Analyze, optimize, and scale network architectures to support evolving broadcast operations.
• Lead troubleshooting and root cause analysis of complex media‑over‑IP issues across multiple facilities.
• Integrate emerging media networking technologies with internal systems and vendor platforms.
• Implement automation and configuration management using tools such as Python, Ansible, and Arista CloudVision.
• Manage multicast routing, QoS, and timing requirements (PTP) for live video/audio transport.
• Document network topologies, configurations, and change‑control procedures.
• Mentor and provide guidance to operations teams and junior engineers.

Required Qualifications

• 10+ years of experience in large‑scale, mission‑critical IP network design and support.
• Hands‑on expertise with BGP, multicast protocols, and large enterprise/broadcast routing environments.
• Strong experience working with Arista switching platforms and modern data center architectures.
• Proficiency in Python automation, network scripting, and operational tooling.
• Deep understanding of broadcast and media‑over‑IP technology, including:
  • SMPTE ST 2110
  • PTP (Precision Time Protocol)
  • SDN concepts
• Strong troubleshooting skills and experience with tools like Wireshark.
• Ability to collaborate effectively with engineering, IT, and broadcast operations teams.
• Excellent communication, documentation, and stakeholder engagement skills.

Nice‑to‑Have Skills

• Experience in media, broadcast, or live production environments.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field.
• Familiarity with network orchestration and advanced timing systems.
• Knowledge of network segmentation, security policies, and hybrid environments.
• Medical coverage and Health Savings Account (HSA) through Anthem.
• Dental/Vision/Various Ancillary coverages through Unum.
