Inside Consulting Systems Engineer

Location: Sophia Antipolis, France

Language/s: Fluent English

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.
