- Execute system upgrades, re‑architecture efforts, and tech refreshes for customer DDI environments.
- Provide lifecycle engineering and architectural guidance — not day‑to‑day system administration.
- Produce high‑quality documentation, design artifacts, diagrams, and knowledge‑transfer materials.
- Ensure successful delivery through best‑practice design, testing, validation, and cutover planning.
- Serve as a trusted advisor, guiding long‑term DDI strategy and modernization.
Pre‑Sales Technical Support (25%)
- Deliver compelling DDI and DNS Security presentations, product overviews, and live demos.
- Lead technical discovery sessions to uncover customer requirements, challenges, and business drivers.
- Support sales cycles with solution design, POC/POV engagements, and RFP/RFI responses.
- Map customer needs to ELEVI’s DDI architecture, migration, and DNS Security offerings using value‑based framing.
- Translate customer requirements into architectural recommendations, scopes of work, and value‑driven proposals.
- Partner with Account Executives to identify and shape new‑business opportunities.
- Contribute to sales and marketing collateral, solution diagrams, and technical content.
What You Bring
- 10+ years of enterprise DDI engineering experience with deep expertise in DNS, DHCP, IPAM, ISC BIND, Kea DHCP, NTP, TCP/IP.
- Strong hands‑on Infoblox experience (core requirement); Infoblox certifications strongly preferred.
- Proven ability to lead DDI migrations, including Microsoft DNS/DHCP transitions and large‑scale platform‑to‑platform IPAM migrations.
- Experience with EfficientIP, BlueCat, or TCPWave (highly desirable; training provided).
- Solid understanding of DNS Security (DNSSEC, RPZ, threat‑intel filtering).
- Python and/or Perl scripting required, with proficiency in bash/ksh/csh, APIs, CLIs, VPN, SSH, data migration, and service integration.
- Broad networking and systems background: Linux/Unix, routing/switching, load balancing, MS Active Directory, VoIP, UDP, and related infrastructure.
- Strong foundation in Backup & Disaster Recovery, fault‑tolerant systems, and upgrade planning.
- Excellent communication skills — confident presenting to all levels, leading whiteboard sessions, and translating complex technical concepts into clear business value.
- Experience supporting sales cycles, POCs, demos, RFP/RFI responses, and collaborating with Account Executives, partners, and cross‑functional teams.
