network engineers
System connectivity professionals
Network engineers are professionals who design, build, and maintain computer networks—the systems of hardware and software that allow devices to communicate.
They configure routers, switches, firewalls, and other infrastructure that keeps data flowing between computers, servers, and the internet.
The role spans everything from small office setups to massive enterprise systems: We need network engineers to troubleshoot the outage.
