How do you communicate and collaborate with your dual managers effectively?
Understanding the challenges and goals of each individual manager is important, as is ensuring that they are both aware of your workload and associated deliverables. It is particularly challenging if they are in competition for your time, so it is essential that there is an agreed and transparent process for time-conflict resolution. Lastly, I would suggest that you not shy away from pushing back on tasks if you feel that it would lead to compromised quality of the deliverable. A good manager will see this as you managing your time effectively, and would prefer this approach compared to just saying 'yes' to everything and then not being able to deliver.

What are the best strategies for managing deadlines as a Network Engineer?
Base your deadlines on the reality of past experiences. Do you know how long something took last time? If not, find someone with this experience to help you estimate the time and resources required. I would also suggest engaging early with your clients and stakeholders. This allows you to understand and manage their expectations early in the process, as opposed to potentially presenting (or overloading) them with too much information at the end. Details and solid logic often get lost in a debate about timescales if you haven't get everyone in the loop during the process. Lastly, it is a process, so communicate it along the way. Explain to all involved how you are planning to approach the work and the logical steps to reach your goals.
