ph3Position /h3pThe Network Perimeter Security product makes Roche’s connectivity accessible and secure through actionable, policy-driven processes. The capabilities we provide enable Roche to identify, inspect, and mitigate network-based risks, manage regulatory compliance, and oversee egress/ingress traffic across all layers. Our solutions are primarily instantiated through leading-edge security platforms and automated orchestration. We work closely with Cloud, Infrastructure, and Incident Response teams to provide enterprise visibility into Roche’s network security posture. /ppYou’ll be working within the Network Security Product area. This area is accountable for the end-to-end delivery of solutions—designing, building, and maintaining the technologies that protect Roche networks and the Internet, whether on-prem or cloud-based. This includes continuous improvement of capabilities like Internet Security Stack, DDoS Protection, Site-to-Site Connectivity (VPN), Network Access Control and Deep Packet Inspection to stay ahead of an ever-evolving threat landscape. /ph3Job Description /h3pAs the Lead for Network Security Infrastructure Observability, you will be the primary architect and engineer responsible for the health, availability, and performance of our global security infrastructure. This is a hands‑on technical leadership role that requires a solid foundation in Network Security engineering. You will architect, design, build, and operate the monitoring frameworks that ensure our security platforms (Firewalls, NAC, ZTNA) are running at peak operational efficiency. While your focus is on Infrastructure Reliability, success in this role depends on your deep technical understanding of how security controls—such as packet inspection, encryption, and access policies—impact system performance. By bridging the gap between security hardware/software (Palo Alto, Fortinet, ISE) and modern observability toolchains (LogicMonitor, Python, IaC), you will ensure that the organization’s security “engine” is always visible, resilient, and perfectly tuned. /ph3Job Responsibilities /h3ollibInfrastructure Architecture, Design Build Security‑Aware Monitoring Architecture /bulliArchitect and design a general visibility framework for understanding key performance, health, and throughput indicators of core security appliances across services such as Edge Firewalls, NAC, DDoS Mitigation, Network Authentication, Internal Network Segmentation, and VPNs. /liliBuild and deploy the observability toolchain specifically optimized to monitor the hardware and virtualized instances of Palo Alto, Fortinet, and Cisco ISE.
