Description
This health enterprise is doing a Forescout implementation project with NetBrain automation support. The Forescout Platform Appliance is a dedicated device that monitors traffic going through your organization's network. It helps protect the network against malicious activity, performs extensive NAC protection, lets you create network security zones and handles vulnerabilities. NYU is rolling this out and needs some strong experience with it as well with taking existing Ansible code and turning it into code on NetBrain. NetBrain is network automation and is a no-code platform for automating “Day 2” network operations workflows such as troubleshooting, outage prevention, and change management. It enables network engineers and subject matter experts to create Intent-based automated assessments and diagnostic procedures using only their network expertise without the need for traditional scripting or programming languages.
Needs an experienced Network Engineer with hands-on experience in both Ansible and NetBrain platforms to support a network automation migration project. The ideal candidate will have deep understanding of multi-vendor network environments, strong Python and YAML scripting skills, and the ability to translate existing Ansible playbooks into NetBrain automation runbooks. This role involves working closely with architects and operational teams to design, test, and deploy scalable automation solutions that enhance network reliability and operational efficiency. The experience this engineer will need is below:
Network Automation & Scripting
o Experience writing and managing playbooks, roles, and Jinja2 templates
o YAML syntax fluency
o Use of Ansible Tower/AWX for workflow orchestration
o Understanding of Dynamic Maps, Runbooks, Executable Maps, and Qapps
o Ability to translate procedural logic from Ansible into NetBrain’s visual/runbook scripting format
o Experience with NetBrain Integrated IDE, Python Script Nodes, and CLI Parser
o Proficiency in writing and adapting Python scripts for network tasks
o Familiarity with NetBrain Python APIs for automation integration
o Deep understanding of Cisco, Arista, Juniper CLI syntax and configuration patterns
o Ability to abstract CLI logic from Ansible into NetBrain CLI Parser rules
Network Infrastructure Knowledge
o Strong foundation in BGP, OSPF, EIGRP, STP, VLANs, VXLAN, and VRFs
o Experience with multivendor environments: Cisco IOS/XE/XR, Nexus, ASA/FTD, Arista EOS, Juniper JunOS
o Familiarity with Cisco ACI, Meraki, SD-WAN
o Understanding how automation fits into SDN and hybrid data center architectures
Tooling and Integration
o Working knowledge of tools like Infoblox or BlueCat for automation use cases
o Experience using Git for versioning and tracking Ansible/NetBrain scripts a plus.
o Familiarity with integrating automation with ServiceNow or other ticketing systems
