Job Description

  1. Network Engineering and Operations 
    • Design and Architecture: Design, plan, and implement scalable, high-performance network architectures (LAN, WAN, Data Center). 
    • Routing and Switching: Configure, manage, and troubleshoot advanced routing protocols including OSPF, BGP, EIGRP, and IS-IS. Implement and maintain advanced switching features such as VLANs, STP, trunking, EtherChannel, and port security. 
    • High Availability: Implement and manage high availability protocols like HSRP, VRRP, and GLBP to ensure network resilience and uptime. 
    • WAN Management: Oversee and troubleshoot wide-area network (WAN) connectivity, including MPLS, various VPNs (e.g., IPSec, DMVPN, SSL), and modern SD-WAN solutions. 
    • Core Concepts: Apply deep understanding of OSI and TCP/IP models, IPv4/IPv6 addressing, subnetting, and supernetting in all design and operational activities. 
  1. 2. Network Security Management 
    • Firewall Administration: Design, implement, and maintain next-generation firewalls from vendors such as Cisco ASA/FTD, Palo Alto, Fortinet, Check Point, and Juniper SRX. 
    • Threat Prevention: Configure and manage Intrusion Detection/Prevention Systems (IDS/IPS) using platforms like Snort and Suricata, or vendor-specific solutions, to monitor and block malicious traffic. 
    • Secure Access: Implement and manage secure access solutions, including site-to-site and remote access VPNs, Zero Trust architectures, and Network Access Control (NAC) using 802.1X. 
    • Authentication and Authorization: Configure and maintain AAA services utilizing TACACS+ and RADIUS for centralized device and user access control. 
    • Segmentation: Develop and enforce network security policies through segmentation and micro segmentation techniques using VLANs, VRFs, and granular ACLs. 
    • Secure Design: Ensure adherence to secure network design principles, including the proper placement and configuration of DMZ and bastion hosts for a secure network edge. ​

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field 
  • Minimum of 5-7 years of professional experience in network engineering with a strong focus on network security.
