Second, network engineer interpretation

What is a network engineer? A network engineer is a network technician who grasps the theoretical knowledge and operational skills of network technology through study and training. Network engineers can engage in the design, construction, operation and maintenance of computer information systems.

Specifically, we can make some understanding from the post system of enterprise informatization. The following four types of people are needed in the process of enterprise (or government) informatization:

1. Enterprise informatization supervisor: responsible for the goal and scheme decision-making in informatization construction, and the direction research in informatization construction;

Engineering and technical personnel: responsible for the design and construction of information systems, including the construction of equipment, systems, databases and application systems;

3. Operation and maintenance personnel: responsible for the operation, maintenance, management and basic development of the information system;

4. Operation and application personnel: mainly apply information system to carry out their own work.

Generally speaking, IT technology positions in IT enterprises can be divided into management positions according to their functions: CIO, director, IT manager, project manager, etc.; engineering positions: planning designer, network engineer, system engineer, software engineer, database engineer, etc.; operation and maintenance positions: database administrator, system administrator, network administrator, server administrator, etc.; operation positions: office clerk, CAD designer, webpage producer, multimedia producer, etc.

According to the size of the enterprise, a small enterprise, a position may cover several positions, system administrators are responsible for system management, but also undertake network management; large enterprises will be divided into more professional, network designers, system integration engineers, network installation engineers, integrated wiring engineers and system test engineers.

The career planning process for network engineers consists of the following steps:

Small businesses of more than two years → medium-sized businesses of about four years → large enterprises or multinational conglomerates

Step 1: Small Business Network Administrator (System Administrator);

The second step, into large and medium-sized enterprises, the same network management work, wages may be completely different, generally in more than 3000 yuan. As a department manager, it can also be as high as 5000 yuan or more;

The third step is to learn more comprehensive knowledge and become an ordinary network engineer. The salary is as high as 3500 yuan.

The fourth step is to learn more comprehensive knowledge to become a professional network engineer, such as the salary of a network storage engineer and a network security engineer can reach more than 8000 yuan, and the salary of an IT manager of a large enterprise or a professional network company is even higher, basically more than ten thousand yuan.

Here are three ways to describe the career development of network engineers:

(i) Administrator

■ Title: Junior

Work in small and medium-sized enterprises, covering network infrastructure management, network operating system management, network application system management, network user management, network security management, information storage backup management and network room management.

The management involves many fields, each of which has its own specific tasks.

■ Main position: network administrator (system administrator)

■ Job description:

1. Management of the network itself;

2. Management of operation/application system in network (usually called MIS (Manager Information System) in large enterprises, foreign capital and joint ventures.

The main difference between the two is that network administrators focus on the lower three layers of OSI, while system administrators focus on system maintenance and corporate information system management.

Employment prospects: the initial stage of a professional network

■ Treatment: 1800 yuan-3000 yuan (depending on the degree of professional mastery and technical proficiency)

2) Engineer

■ Title: Intermediate

Work in a dotcom company or a medium-sized enterprise. In network companies the main task is design and construction; in medium and large enterprises the main task is operation and maintenance.
