What to ExpectJoin Tesla Energy’s network team supporting commercial energy storage across EMEA and the UK. This is a hands-on, operational Senior Network Engineer role focused on implementation, triage, and production support.

You will own regional network delivery for energy sites, deploy and validate within established architecture, act as a senior escalation point, and keep services reliable under real customer expectations. Strong production networking fundamentals and an operations mindset matter most. You will coach peers where needed while staying deep in day-to-day delivery.

This is not a pure architecture, program management, or design-only role. Success means owning production operations: deployments, incident response, on-call, and continuous improvement of live network services.

What You’ll DoOwn and improve production network services for commercial energy storage sites across EMEA and the UK

Act as a senior (Tier 3) escalation point for complex network incidents and changes

Gather requirements, analyze issues, and propose practical networking solutions

Provision, implement, test/validate, and maintain networking services remotely, using regional staging environments

Monitor, analyze, and report on network service health and performance

Document network knowledge and operational runbooks

Partner with field, product, and security teams to keep sites compliant, supportable, and secure

Mentor and support other network engineers on deployments and operational best practices

Participate in an on-call rotation; occasional weekends, after-hours, and holiday coverage as needed

Travel approximately 15% as required

What You’ll BringRequired

Several years of production network engineering experience with operational ownership (incidents, changes, on-call)

Strong hands-on IP networking: L2/L3 (e.g. spanning-tree, OSPF and/or BGP), TCP/IP, DHCP, DNS, VLANs, QoS, ACLs, and high availability (e.g. VRRP, LACP)

Hands-on experience with common enterprise switching and routing platforms (e.g. Cisco, Juniper, Arista, or equivalent)

Experience with firewall and VPN services (e.g. Cisco ASA, Juniper SRX, Palo Alto Networks, or equivalent), including IPSec VPN and related security controls

Experience supporting production network services for internal or external customers under time pressure

Ability to write clear operational documentation and runbooks

Comfortable working occasional off-hours and participating in on-call

Willingness to travel (~15%) as needed

Preferred

SD-WAN and/or modern fabric technologies (e.g. EVPN with VXLAN)

Network automation (Ansible, Python, shell scripting, or similar)

Observability and troubleshooting tooling (e.g. SNMP, NetFlow, packet capture, IPAM, RADIUS, Splunk or equivalent)

Experience in a fast-paced environment with external customer support

CCNP or equivalent networking certification
