Network Engineer Jobs in California

A Network Engineer in the technology industry is responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining computer networks within an organization. This may range from setting up small connections (LANs) to vast networks (WANs), intranets, or extranets. They play an essential role in developing and maintaining the infrastructure that allows for internal communication and external digital operations. Network Engineers provide technical support, fix network faults, and optimize network performance and security.
