We are seeking a Network Mapping & Documentation Engineer with deep experience using NetBrain to lead a comprehensive effort to document and visualize network infrastructure across multiple environments. This role focuses on creating accurate Layer 1, 2, and 3 topology maps, documenting key network and infrastructure components, and establishing standards and processes to ensure ongoing accuracy and adoption of the maps.
The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience with NetBrain and a solid understanding of enterprise network environments, including physical infrastructure, storage systems, and network chassis. This position will also help lay the foundation for future automation and runbook development.
Key Responsibilities:
Use NetBrain to generate and maintain up-to-date network topology documentation at multiple infrastructure layers.
Map and document network elements including compute, storage, chassis, and related components, including port-level detail where required.
Apply proper tagging and classification to maps for organizational clarity.
Maintain all documentation directly within NetBrain as the single source of truth.
Set up scheduled refreshes for ongoing updates to network documentation.
Collaborate with infrastructure teams to validate device data including MAC addresses, IPs, and hostnames.
Track and document port utilization for key environments, and implement alerts as needed.
Incorporate external connectivity, such as cloud infrastructure, into overall topology maps.
Utilize NetBrain features to identify topology changes and support change tracking.
Develop standards and materials to support adoption, including SOPs, training content, and runbook frameworks.
Prioritize high-impact network segments for initial documentation efforts.
Requirements:
Proven experience using NetBrain to generate and maintain network documentation and visualizations.
Strong understanding of Layer 1, 2, and 3 networking and infrastructure topology.
Familiarity with enterprise infrastructure including compute platforms, storage arrays, backup systems, and chassis-based networking.
Ability to work in a self-directed manner under the guidance of a technical lead.
Excellent collaboration and communication skills to work cross-functionally for data validation and knowledge transfer.
Experience documenting port-level details and infrastructure dependencies.
Strong attention to detail and commitment to documentation accuracy and completeness.
Preferred Qualifications:
Experience with NetBrain automation features such as topology change detection or configuration drift tracking.
Exposure to hybrid cloud network environments and cloud provider integrations.
Background supporting or developing runbooks, SOPs, or network operations playbooks.
Familiarity with ITSM platforms like ServiceNow is a plus but not required.
Additional Information:
The engagement will begin with a focus on mapping and documentation. Development of automation and runbooks may follow in a later phase.
Documentation and mapping updates will be performed on a scheduled refresh cycle.
This role may evolve into support for additional network or automation projects, depending on resource performance and client priorities.
