Job Description

A client of Insight Global is hiring a Senior Network Architect to lead enterprise network architecture across the organization. This role is not for a hands‑only engineer—we are looking for someone who operates at a higher architectural and strategic level, translating business challenges into network solutions and clearly articulating why designs and technologies are chosen. This is a Cisco‑centric integrator environment (~70%), but success in this role requires strong awareness of the broader networking ecosystem and the ability to introduce alternative solutions where appropriate.

Preferred: Remote in Colorado, so they can travel to office if needed.

Salary Range: 250,000-275,000/yr

We are an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer that believes everyone matters.
