Are you passionate about deploying, optimizing, and supporting advanced networking and security solutions for enterprise and service provider customers? We are seeking a Professional Services Network Engineer to join our services organization and deliver best-in-class implementations across the full suite of Technologies, including application delivery, carrier-grade networking, and DDoS protection. As a Professional Services Engineer, you will work directly with customers throughout the project lifecycle — from solution design and deployment to validation, optimization, and knowledge transfer — ensuring successful outcomes and a high degree of customer satisfaction.

Key Responsibilities
Lead and execute Professional Services engagements, including solution design, deployment, migration, and optimization.

Deliver and configure ADC (Application Delivery Controller) solutions to provide advanced load balancing, security, and performance capabilities.

A10 Networks

Implement Carrier-Grade NAT (CGN) solutions to support IPv4 preservation, IPv6 migration, and high-scale networking environments.

A10 Networks

Deploy DDoS protection solutions (e.g., Thunder TPS / One-DDoS Protection) for multi-vector attack detection and mitigation at scale.

A10 Networks

  • Provide architectural guidance on traffic-flow optimization, capacity planning, and high availability.
  • Assist in migration and integration from legacy or third-party platforms (F5, Citrix NetScaler, Cisco ACE).
  • Troubleshoot and resolve complex deployment issues, working with customers and internal engineering teams.
  • Use tools such as protocol analyzers and traffic monitors to verify performance and security post-deployment.
  • Produce professional documentation, including solution designs, implementation guides, and customer handoffs.
  • Provide limited post-deployment support, including hypercare during go-lives and customer education sessions.
