About the role
As a Senior Network Designer, you are responsible for designing secure, resilient, and scalable network, security, and application delivery solutions across ING’s hybrid infrastructure. You act as a design authority for F5 BIG-IP LTM and GTM/DNS services, AS3-based onboarding models, Palo Alto security solutions, router ACLs, network segmentation, routing, VPN services, leased-line connectivity, and certificate management.
You contribute to cloud migrations, Lifecycle Management (LCM) projects, F5 certificate automation, platform modernization, and the delivery of new network and application delivery capabilities. You translate business and technical requirements into target-state architectures, High-Level Designs, Low-Level Designs, reusable service patterns, and secure connectivity solutions.
You work effectively with engineers, architects, service consumers, security specialists, and management. You combine clear communication with strong conceptual thinking and a structured approach to solution design. You are thorough, detail-oriented, and committed to producing accurate, maintainable, and high-quality architecture documentation.
