The Art of Network Engineering

I’ve been in network engineering for about eight years, and this show is the one I actually look forward to on my commute. What sets it apart is how real the conversations feel. Guests don’t just talk about what worked, they talk about the outages, the career pivots, the moments of doubt, and how they pushed through. The episodes on breaking through the senior engineer plateau and navigating the shift toward automation hit close to home and genuinely changed how I think about my own trajectory. I’ve walked away from more than a few episodes with something I could apply to my career right away. Whether that’s a new way to frame a difficult conversation with management or a tool I hadn’t considered. The hosts have a rare ability to make deep technical content feel like an interesting conversation with a friend. If you’re anywhere in the networking or infrastructure space, whether you’re just getting your first cert or you’ve been building enterprise networks for decades, this one belongs in your rotation.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I was a little late in finding this podcast, but it has quickly became one of my favorites. I am a little over 60 episodes in and have been binge listening while driving for work. Listening to the guests’ journeys through IT and Networking is very inspiring. I highly recommend this podcast to anyone interested in Networking and deciding if they want to pursue a career in it.

The chemistry amongst the hosts is great and when they interview a guest they are asking the questions that pop into my head! I highly recommend this podcast!

This podcast is such a great listen for network engineers at any stage of their career. Just starting out? They have plenty of entry level topics. Long time veteran? They get deep into new technology. It’s really the perfect blend of personality and technology that you’d really only get from an evening out with friends, who also happen to be network engineers!
