What they need
Job Title: ZTNA / Zero Trust Network Engineer(Zscaler) - Hybird 3 days
Duration: 12 Moths
Location: Montreal or Alpharetta GA
45115
Please make sure candidates to explain a real ZTNA implementation they’ve worked on — what the environment looked like before, what they changed, how applications/users were migrated, and how they troubleshot issues.
We need hands-on ZTNA experience (Zscaler, Netskope, or similar) from a large-scale rollout. 12 months.
Montreal is the preferred location.
Alpharetta is also a strong option.
Remote can be considered for an exceptional candidate who are near a MS office location.
What we’re looking for
This is the more specialized technical search.
Strong hands-on Zero Trust / ZTNA experience.
Ideally someone who has worked through a large enterprise ZTNA implementation/migration.
Experience with Zscaler, Netskope, or comparable platforms.
Strong networking fundamentals — this person needs to understand how applications actually communicate across the network.
Packet-level troubleshooting is important: Wireshark, packet tracing, following traffic flows, diagnosing application connectivity.
Strong understanding of identity and access management.
Experience with Microsoft Entra ID, OIDC, MFA, authentication/authorization.
Automation is a major component: PowerShell, Ansible, Infrastructure as Code.
Need someone who can take infrastructure knowledge and turn it into repeatable, scalable automation.
Ideal candidate
Someone who has worked on a 5,000+ user/device enterprise environment.
Has actually participated in a Zero Trust transformation rather than simply having ZTNA listed on their resume.
Strong network engineer with security/identity knowledge who can work across multiple technical domains.
What this is NOT
Generic network engineer.
Pure cybersecurity/GRC candidate.
IAM-only candidate.
Someone who has only administered Zscaler without understanding the underlying networking/application architecture.
Screening focus
Ask candidates to explain a real ZTNA implementation they’ve worked on — what the environment looked like before, what they changed, how applications/users were migrated, and how they troubleshot issues.
About the Role
We are seeking an experienced ZTNA / Zero Trust Network Engineer to support a large-scale enterprise network and endpoint modernization program. You will help move an organization from a flat network to an application-aware Zero Trust Network Access model, working across ZTNA, DDI, and laptop modernization initiatives.
Key Responsibilities
Design, implement, and support enterprise ZTNA solutions
Migrate applications and users from traditional network access to Zero Trust architectures
Develop and implement application-level ZTNA policies
Troubleshoot application connectivity and network access issues
Analyze network traffic and packet flows to resolve complex connectivity problems
Integrate ZTNA with enterprise identity providers and MFA technologies, partnering closely with identity and access management teams
Automate infrastructure configuration and deployment at enterprise scale
Support DDI and broader network and endpoint modernization initiatives
Collaborate with infrastructure, security, endpoint, and application teams
Document designs, configurations, troubleshooting procedures, and standards
Required Experience
Hands-on Zero Trust / ZTNA architecture experience, including implementing or supporting ZTNA in a large organization
Experience with Zscaler, Netskope, or comparable ZTNA platforms
Strong networking fundamentals and application connectivity troubleshooting
Packet-level troubleshooting skills (e.g., Wireshark)
Experience with identity platforms such as Microsoft Entra ID or comparable
Solid understanding of OIDC, MFA, authentication, and authorization
Strong understanding of application networking and access control
Experience with PowerShell, Ansible, Infrastructure as Code, or comparable automation
Ability to turn networking requirements into scalable, automated solutions
Ideal Candidate
You have taken part in a large-scale Zero Trust transformation, ideally in an environment of 5,000+ users or endpoints, and are equally comfortable discussing networking, identity, security, application connectivity, and automation. This is a specialist ZTNA role, not a general network engineer position.
