About Kondor UP
Kondor UP is the SaaS edition of Kondor, Teciem's flagship treasury management platform. Operated by TCM (TeCIEM) on AWS, Kondor UP delivers treasury capabilities as a fully managed, multi-tenant service - enabling banks to go live in weeks rather than months, with continuous evergreen upgrades and contractual SLAs.
The platform relies on a sophisticated network fabric: per-tenant 3-tier VPCs, Istio service mesh (mTLS), AWS Network Firewall, AWS WAF (F5/WAAP), PrivateLink, and a multi-account AWS Organization managed through Control Tower and Terraform (AFT).
Role Summary
The Network Operations Engineer (NetOps) is responsible for the design, delivery, and day-2 operations of the network layer underpinning Kondor UP. This is a hands-on, infrastructure-focused role at the intersection of cloud networking, hybrid connectivity, and platform security - operating within a production-grade financial services environment.
The NetOps Engineer works closely with the InfraOps, SRE, and SecOps teams, and is a key contributor to the Network & IAM workstream.
Key Responsibilities
1. Network Architecture & VPC Design
Design, provision, and maintain per-tenant VPCs (3-tier: public / private app / private data subnets) on AWS, ensuring full isolation between tenant accounts.
Define and enforce CIDR allocation policies and subnet sizing across the multi-account AWS Organization.
Manage VPC Endpoints (Gateway and Interface) to route AWS API traffic off the public internet.
Contribute to architecture decisions (ADRs) on network topology, routing, and segmentation.
2. Hybrid Connectivity - Bank Client Onboarding
Provision and operate AWS Direct Connect connections (primary) and Site-to-Site VPN tunnels (failover) per customer tenant.
Coordinate with client bank network teams for BGP configuration, IP addressing, and bandwidth planning.
Define and enforce routing policies (BGP, static routes) between client on-prem and AWS tenant environments.
Own failover testing and validation for hybrid connectivity paths.
3. Network Security
Configure and manage AWS Network Firewall (stateful/stateless rules, Suricata-based IDS/IPS).
Manage AWS WAF policies (OWASP rule sets, API protection, bot mitigation, rate limiting).
Design and maintain Security Groups and Network ACLs following least-privilege principles.
Enforce Kubernetes NetworkPolicy rules via Kyverno for pod-to-pod and namespace traffic control.
Support the SecOps team during security incidents involving network-layer indicators.
4. Service Mesh & Internal Connectivity
Operate and troubleshoot Istio (service mesh) for mTLS enforcement, traffic routing, and east-west observability within EKS clusters.
Manage AWS PrivateLink endpoints for cross-account service exposure (shared services → tenant accounts).
Ensure network-level connectivity for platform services: Amazon MSK (Kafka), Amazon MQ (ActiveMQ), RDS SQL Server (Multi-AZ).
5. DNS Management
Manage Amazon Route 53 - public hosted zones (customer-facing endpoints), private hosted zones (internal service resolution), and resolver rules for hybrid DNS.
Implement and validate DNS failover policies aligned with RTO/RPO targets.
6. Infrastructure as Code
Own Terraform modules for all network resources: VPCs, subnets, route tables, security groups, Network Firewall policies, WAF rules, Direct Connect/VPN, and DNS zones.
Contribute to the AFT (Account Factory for Terraform) customisation templates for network baseline provisioning on new tenant account creation.
Enforce IaC quality standards: peer-reviewed PRs, policy-as-code (Kyverno / OPA/Conftest), automated drift detection.
7. Observability & Incident Response
Instrument network-layer observability: VPC Flow Logs, AWS Network Firewall alerts, Istio traffic metrics (golden signals), and Direct Connect performance dashboards.
Define and monitor network SLIs (packet loss, latency, throughput per tenant path) contributing to the SRE error budget framework.
Act as network SME during P1/P2 incidents and post-mortem investigations.
Maintain network runbooks and escalation procedures in the operational knowledge base.
8. Capacity & Cost Management
Model bandwidth requirements per tenant and across the shared connectivity backbone; proactively plan capacity headroom.
Optimise network costs (NAT Gateway egress, Direct Connect port utilisation, data transfer) in alignment with the FinOps workstream.
Required Skills & Experience
Cloud Networking - AWS (mandatory)
Deep, hands-on experience with AWS VPC (subnets, routing, peering, endpoint services, CIDR management).
Proven AWS Direct Connect deployment and operations: Virtual Interfaces (Private VIF / Transit VIF), hosted connections, BGP, failover with VPN.
AWS Network Firewall and AWS WAF - rule authoring, policy lifecycle, alert tuning.
Amazon Route 53 - advanced DNS management (private zones, resolver endpoints, health checks, failover policies).
AWS Control Tower / multi-account organisation networking patterns (hub-and-spoke, landing zone).
Network Fundamentals
Strong foundational knowledge: TCP/IP, BGP, OSPF, VLANs, MPLS concepts, subnetting, routing.
Experience with SD-WAN or hybrid WAN architectures is a plus.
Familiarity with network security concepts: stateful inspection, IDS/IPS, zero-trust network access (ZTNA).
Kubernetes & Service Mesh
Working knowledge of Kubernetes networking (CNI, kube-proxy, CoreDNS, NetworkPolicy).
Practical experience with Istio (VirtualService, DestinationRule, PeerAuthentication, mTLS).
Familiarity with Kyverno or OPA for policy-as-code enforcement of network controls.
Infrastructure as Code
Proficiency in Terraform (modules, workspaces, remote state, provider ecosystem for AWS networking).
Experience with GitOps workflows (PR-based changes, ArgoCD or equivalent).
Version control practices: branching strategies, code review, conventional commits.
Observability
Experience with VPC Flow Logs, CloudWatch, and network-layer telemetry pipelines.
Familiarity with Prometheus / Grafana for infrastructure and service mesh dashboards.
Ability to write and maintain runbooks and post-mortems.
Compliance & Security Context (desirable)
Awareness of financial services network requirements: SWIFT CSP, PCI-DSS, ISO 27001, DORA (EU).
Understanding of data residency constraints and network-level controls for regulated environments.
Nice to Have
Knowledge of FIX protocol or market connectivity (LSEG/Reuters, Bloomberg) network patterns.
Familiarity with AWS PrivateLink and multi-account cross-service exposure patterns.
Experience with Chaos Engineering for network-layer resilience testing (partition injection, latency simulation).
AWS certifications: Advanced Networking Specialty, Solutions Architect Professional.
Team Context & Reporting
The NetOps Engineer reports to the Cloud / Service Delivery Manager and operates within the Network & IAM workstream.
Primary interfaces: - InfraOps - joint ownership of EKS cluster networking, IaC modules, platform baseline. - SRE - network SLI/SLO definition, error budget contribution, incident network-layer triage. - SecOps - co-owns network security posture (WAF, Firewall, NetworkPolicy); feeds into SIEM pipeline. - DevOps - supports connectivity requirements for CI/CD pipelines, ECR pull-through, VPC Endpoints. - Client Bank Network Teams - external stakeholder for Direct Connect / VPN onboarding.
