About the role

What will you do at Roadrunner?

IT is the operational backbone at Roadrunner. We operate a high-reliability

logistics network where real-time communication, system uptime, and contact

center performance are critical. When voice systems fail or the contact center

degrades, operations slow down immediately. This role exists to ensure that

doesn’t happen. We are looking for a hands-on, high-ownership engineer who can

operate across voice, network, and CCaaS platforms—someone who can design,

stabilize, and evolve systems, not just support them. This is not a

ticket-driven role. This is a role for someone who wants to own outcomes. What

you’ll do 1. Lead voice platform evolution Own and support Cisco voice

environment (CUCM, Unity, Jabber) Drive execution of the Cisco → Microsoft Teams

voice migration Ensure call quality, reliability, and scalability across the

enterprise Troubleshoot complex voice issues across network, carrier, and

platform layers 2. Own and scale CCaaS platform (Five9, Zoom, Nice) Act as a

core technical owner for our CCaaS initiative Lead stabilization and

optimization of the current CCaaS (Five9) environment and future Zoom or Nice

post-deployment Design and improve call flows, routing logic, and agent

experience Support integrations (SSO, voice routing, APIs, backend systems)

Partner with business stakeholders to translate operational needs into technical

solutions 3. Operate across network and connectivity layers Work across network

paths (LAN/WAN, SD-WAN, ISP, SASE) to ensure reliable voice and CCaaS

performance Identify and resolve latency, jitter, and routing issues impacting

real-time systems Partner with network engineering to improve resilience and

performance 4. Build stability and eliminate recurring issues Identify systemic

issues and eliminate root causes Drive automation and operational improvements

Improve monitoring, alerting, and observability across platforms Move

environments from reactive support to predictable, stable operations 5.

Contribute to secure and scalable infrastructure Support security initiatives

(identity, endpoint, monitoring) Ensure platforms are aligned with security and

compliance requirements Design with long-term scalability in mind What you bring

Must-haves (non-negotiable) Proven experience owning voice and CCaaS

platforms—not just supporting them Hands-on experience with Cisco UC (CUCM) and

Microsoft Teams Voice Experience with contact center platforms Strong

understanding of network fundamentals impacting real-time traffic (latency, QoS,

routing) Ability to troubleshoot across multiple layers (endpoint → network →

platform → carrier) Experience supporting or participating in platform

migrations or transformations Nice-to-haves (differentiators) Experience with

Direct Routing, SIP, CUBE, or carrier integrations Exposure to SASE / SD-WAN

(e.g., Cato) Experience integrating CCaaS with CRM or backend systems

Scripting/automation experience (PowerShell, APIs) Experience improving

monitoring/observability (SolarWinds or similar) How you operate You take

ownership and drive issues to resolution You think in systems, not tickets You

are comfortable operating across multiple domains You challenge the status quo

and simplify complexity You communicate clearly with both technical and business

teams You prioritize stability, scalability, and long-term outcomes About
