I believe I understand the intended design, but I'm still experiencing an issue with my current setup.
SSR node0 is physically connected to an EX4400-24x switch configured as an access port with a single VLAN member.
SSR node1 is connected to a separate EX4400-24x with the same access port configuration.
The two EX4400 switches are interconnected and now properly passing Layer 2 traffic, as I can see MAC addresses learned across the inter-switch link.
In the Hub Profile, I have defined a WAN where ge-0/0/0 and ge-1/0/0 are configured as redundant interfaces, with IPv4 static addressing (including gateway) configured under the WAN settings, and the profile is correctly applied to the site. However, even after confirming Layer 2 adjacency and bouncing the switch interfaces, both SSR nodes continue to bring up their physical interfaces independently and obtain DHCP addresses, showing Address Mode as Dynamic instead of using the configured static IP for the shared WAN.

"The SSR's uplinks will be connected to 2 Different EX4400-24x's. "
That's not an issue. What SSR does is a VRRP on Layer 2 basis with only one IP. (Rather than Cisco where you would have 3 addresses, primary, secondary and master). Both SSR uplink ports need to reach each other via Layer 2, then you are good to go.

I apologize as my earlier Diagram is missing 2 devices.
The SSR's uplinks will be connected to 2 Different EX4400-24x's.
Node 0: Will be connected to Core 0
Node 1: Will be connected to Core 1
These Core's have routes to the Firewall.

is it possible to have the SSR's at 2 different IP Addresses and have a VIP which then gets NAT'd through the firewall?
Jeevak: SSR wont support this kind of setup, redundant port is the option only. If primary node went down, backup device will take over with same ip.
