Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Manager of Network Engineering and Services position at
NU
Northwestern University is seeking a new Manager of Network Engineering and
Services in its central IT-Telecommunications and Network Services department.
The old manager somehow got given an Associate Director job. Investigations
are still pending into that wackiness, but in the meantime we need a new
manager.
This position is responsible for leading a team of 12 data network engineers
who are responsible for the design, configuration, implementation, and day to
day maintenance/operations for all infrastructure associated with IP networking
on the US-based campuses of Northwestern University. This includes things like
routers, switches, firewalls, wireless access points/controllers, optical
network nodes, load balancers, intrusion prevention systems, VPN concentrators,
and various other network-related systems and services (DNS, DHCP, NTP, NAC,
AAA, monitoring/management of all of the above, etc etc).
We are looking for someone who is technically adept, but we are not looking for
someone who will be expected to regularly log into things and fix them.
Rather, a good understanding of what it required to work with and implement all
of the different pieces of technology/infrastructure as well as the ability to
effectively/efficiently direct the efforts of those doing the work are key
skills. There is a lot to stay on top of just on the technical side, and in
addition there are a lot of relationships to manage with groups and units not
just within Northwestern but outside as well. Responsive and customer focused
communication skills (both written and spoken), the ability to
process/integrate details from many streams of information simultaneously, and
a cool head in a crisis are also ideal attributes that we are looking for.
Interested parties should go to http://www.northwestern.edu/hr/jobs/ and
search for job ID 25740.
