The role

People leader for the Cloud Services networking team — the dedicated pod that owns cloud and on-premises connectivity for the whole organization. This person is accountable for delivery, staffing, and development across the networking domain: landing-zone and network foundation, VPC / subnet / CIDR planning, firewalls and security groups, private connectivity (Interconnect / Direct Connect), DNS, IP address management, and the network center-of-excellence and CRQ operations. They lead a team of network engineers, set the delivery roadmap and the networking standards and review bar, and represent the cloud organization to security, platform, application, audit, and regulatory partners.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the networking pod — a team of roughly five to six network engineers across GCP, AWS, and on-premises connectivity — owning delivery, resourcing, prioritization, and the team's operating cadence.
• Own the networking delivery roadmap and the standards and review bar for the domain: landing-zone and network foundation, VPC / subnet / CIDR planning, firewalls, private connectivity, DNS, and IP address management, delivered as reusable, self-service capability where possible.
• Grow and develop the team: hiring, coaching, performance, and succession, including the operational network-lead line and the knowledge transfer that removes single points of failure.
• Run network operations at a production bar — CRQ and change management, on-call and incident response, and the reliability of the connectivity the rest of the organization depends on.
• Partner across the organization — with Schwab Cyber Security, the platform and modules pods, application teams, and audit and regulatory reviews — and represent networking in planning and governance forums.
• Advance the multi-cloud networking strategy: keep GCP and AWS network architecture coherent, drive the on-premises-to-cloud connectivity model, and align with the network domain architect on reference patterns.
