You will join a team of specialists in the performance testing of secure networking equipment.
You will use testing equipment to validate the performance of New (NPI) or current Fortinet products. This role is a part of the sales organization at Fortinet, helping the community of pre-sales engineers with collaboration and sharing up-to-date information on new equipment, latest patches, and firmware.
While lab testing and delivering the results is the key element of our work, we also find ourselves:
- Giving general technical assistance to the Sales Teams.
- Helping with a field-based remote Proof of Concept (POC) activity.
- Providing input to RFP responses. Provide design expertise and assistance to the field.
We are looking for a networking engineer with good knowledge of computer physics (system performance like interrupt, context, but also routing or pkt). A deep knowledge of how a system works or Wireshark is a prerequisite.
Skills required.
A top system and networking knowledge is necessary.
For example:
- IPv4, IPv6, TCP, UDP
- L2 switching
- Routing protocols
- VPN and related: IPsec, SSL/TLS
- ZTNA or SDWAN
- Knowing how a system behaves using tools like mpstat or top is absolutely required.
Those would be a typical, but not exhaustive, set of abilities.
