About this role
New Era Technology is undertaking a significant global migration from Cisco to Arista hardware, and this senior-level role puts you at the center of that transformation. You'll work across multiple global sites planning and executing the transition, configuring and troubleshooting Arista switches and routers, and collaborating with senior engineers and project managers to ensure smooth deployments. The work spans configuration, testing, validation, and Tier 1–2 support, with a strong emphasis on maintaining documentation and compliance standards throughout the conversion process.
The position requires 5–8 years of hands-on network engineering experience, solid knowledge of Arista EOS, and a working understanding of Cisco technologies. You'll need to be comfortable with Layer 2/3 networking fundamentals, routing protocols like OSPF and BGP, and network security principles, plus proficiency with monitoring and troubleshooting tools such as Wireshark and NetFlow. This is an in-office role in India with shift flexibility required. If you have experience with enterprise-scale migrations, automation tools like Ansible or Python, or relevant certifications (CCNA, JNCIA, Arista ACE), those would strengthen your candidacy.
