Swoon is hiring for our banking client for a fully remote DNS/DHCP (DDI) Engineer opportunity. This is a 6-month contract with strong potential for long-term extension based on performance and business needs. Join a global infrastructure team supporting a large enterprise DNS, DHCP, and IP address management environment. You’ll help shape DNS architecture, support a major migration to DNS Anycast, and drive infrastructure improvements across critical banking systems.


What You’ll Do

  • Design, build, and support enterprise DNS, DHCP, and IPAM infrastructure across a global environment.
  • Help lead the migration from traditional DNS architecture to DNS Anycast.
  • Evaluate existing architecture and recommend improvements to reliability, scalability, security, and performance.
  • Support internal, external, and hybrid cloud DNS environments, including AWS, Azure, and Akamai.
  • Troubleshoot complex production issues, perform root cause analysis, and provide advanced engineering support.
  • Maintain and modify Python or Bash automation scripts and support API integrations.
  • Partner with cross-functional teams on infrastructure upgrades, lifecycle management, and technical documentation.


What You’ll Bring

You’re an experienced DDI engineer with deep DNS architecture knowledge and a strong understanding of how to build, operate, and troubleshoot complex enterprise environments. Ideally, you bring 8+ years of network engineering experience, including at least 5 years working with DDI platforms.

Experience with DNS Anycast is a major priority. Cygna/ Diamond IP IPControl experience is preferred, and strong Infoblox or BlueCat experience is also welcomed. Familiarity with BIND, Microsoft DNS, DHCP failover, IPv4/IPv6, cloud DNS, and Unix/Linux will help you make an immediate impact. xhqgsiq
