Network Architect (Telco/ISP background required) — Work From Home, Philippines

Amazing opportunity to work for an Australian wholesale telco running its own ASN and carrier-grade infrastructure, carrying NBN, business internet and voice services for hundreds of Australian MSPs.
We are looking for a Network Engineer to own the direction of that network, not to manage a team, but to be the technical peer who plans the change, gets in the CLI, and makes it happen. This is a hands-on IC role. You'll still be the one writing the playbook and cutting the change at 2am, not handing a design to someone else to build.
What you'll be doing
Configuring, testing and deploying changes to routers, switches, BNGs and firewalls across a national network
Writing and maintaining Ansible playbooks for provisioning, backup/restore and validation moving toward config as code
Owning BNG and subscriber management: subscriber termination, AAA/RADIUS, session handling and scaling
Finding the problems before partners do, and bringing costed, reasoned recommendations then building the ones that get approved
Working Australian business hours, with after-hours availability for maintenance windows and escalations
What you need
Current or recent hands-on experience inside a telco, ISP or carrier network, enterprise-only backgrounds won't transfer here, and this is screened hard
Real BNG/BRAS subscriber management experience
Ansible automation you've personally written for network devices, playbooks, roles, inventory, idempotency
Deep routing and switching: BGP, MPLS, OSPF, ISIS, VXLAN, eVPN
The confidence to put a recommendation in front of leadership and defend it
Based within 2–3 hours of Makati (there's a serviced office there)
What's on offer
PHP 200,000–240,000/month basic, plus HMO, 13th month and benefits
Health insurance.
Regular virtual and in-person company events throughout the year, including our Mid-Year Celebration, Year-End Party, and Team Building.
The role is primarily remote, with a requirement to work onsite once per quarter and occasionally as needed for team collaboration.
Full-time work from home, high-end setup provided
Direct line to the CEO, no four layers of approval between your idea and it getting built
Training and certification support
If you're doing this job right now in a telco and want better work-life balance without giving up real ownership of a network, send your CV and a short note on a network improvement you pushed for that nobody asked you to apply through Nudge, confidentially.
