• Develop and describe new service concepts according to our Service Framework

• Validate service concepts through lab testing, performance measurements and interoperability checks.

• Collaborate with Product Development teams to ensure network requirements are considered early in feature and service definition.

• Act as a central contact for the Philips network engineer community for Network Professional Services

• Provide technical guidance and best practices for network and network resilience

You’re the right fit if

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or related field.

• 5+ years of experience in enterprise networking or infrastructure engineering.

• German and other languages are a plus.

• Proven experience in network engineering and network security

• Strong understanding of:

  • Layer 2/3 networking, VLANs, STP/RSTP, routing protocols

  • WiFi/802.11 network design (RSSI/SNR thresholds, roaming behavior, channel planning, DFS considerations, QoS/WMM)

  • DHCP/DNS design, IP addressing, NAT limitations, segmentation, and security controls

• Understanding of Agile development methodologies.

• Experience in solution design and delivery.

• Experience with Virtualization environments

• Experience with Windows and Linux operating systems.

We offer a permanent contract with a competitive compensation package, 30 days of annual leave, flexible working hours, a hybrid working model with three days in the office and two days working from home, as well as continuous learning opportunities.
