Shape the physical and logical backbone for NexGen’s Rook I site through OT/IT network design, implementation, and commissioning. This role is remote within Saskatchewan.

As Senior Network Engineer, you will deliver connectivity for a complex industrial infrastructure project. You will design permanent networks that scale from construction through production, build onsite infrastructure before fibre arrives, and coordinate installation with engineering and construction timelines. The role also covers security segmentation, access controls, provider transition, and operational handover.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design permanent OT/IT network architecture for Rook I infrastructure
• Translate site engineering requirements into practical connectivity requirements
• Specify, source, and oversee network hardware installation onsite
• Apply segmentation and access controls within the site security framework
• Transition network operations from external providers into internal capability

Requirements:

• Seven or more years engineering enterprise networks or equivalent expertise
• Industrial, mining, energy, or similarly demanding environment experience preferred
• Experience integrating OT networks with enterprise IT environments
• Knowledge of fibre delivery to remote sites and resilient connectivity
• Relevant certifications such as Fortinet, Cisco, or Meraki considered

Use industrial network engineering, OT/IT integration, and security controls to build dependable connectivity through project handover.
