About the role

Lumen is hiring a Senior Lead Network Architect to design resilient, scalable Internet, MPLS core, VPN edge, and Metro Ethernet networks. You will advance automation, streaming telemetry, and AI-enabled operations to improve reliability, performance, and security across a global network infrastructure. We seek 10+ years in carrier/web-scale environments, CCIE/JNCIE preferred, and strong skills in IGP/BGP, MPLS, and vendor governance.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
