Network Administrator

Network Administrator

Location: Smart Village, Giza, with travel to client sites in Cairo, Giza and Alexandria.
Type: Full-time, on-site.
Reports to: Technical Manager.

About the role

Stark Technology has looked after the networks of Egyptian businesses since 2016. As a Network Administrator you are responsible for the day-to-day health of client networks: campus LAN, Wi-Fi, firewalls and site-to-site VPNs, and for the projects that extend them. You will work across a range of client environments rather than a single estate.

What you will do

  • Configure, monitor and troubleshoot switches, routers, firewalls and wireless controllers across client sites.
  • Implement and maintain site-to-site and remote-access VPNs.
  • Respond to network incidents within agreed service levels and follow them through to root cause.
  • Deliver installation and migration projects end to end: survey, design, cabling coordination, configuration and handover.
  • Keep network documentation, diagrams and configuration backups current.
  • Work with the security team on firewall policy, segmentation and access control.
  • Write clear updates for clients and escalate early when something needs it.

What we are looking for

  • Two or more years administering business networks, in a managed-service provider or in-house.
  • Hands-on experience with at least one enterprise firewall platform. Fortinet, Sophos or equivalent.
  • Solid grounding in TCP/IP, VLANs, routing, DHCP and DNS, and enterprise Wi-Fi.
  • Comfortable on the switch and router command line, not only the GUI.
  • CCNA, Fortinet NSE or equivalent certification is an advantage, as is exposure to Microsoft 365 and virtualisation.
  • Good written and spoken Arabic and English.
  • Willing to travel to client sites and to take part in an on-call rota.

Why Stark Technology

  • Exposure to many different client environments instead of one.
  • Access to vendor platforms and certification paths through our partnerships with Microsoft, Dell Technologies, HPE, Lenovo, Fortinet, Sophos, Kaspersky, VMware and Veeam.
  • A team small enough that your work is visible.
