What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a 24/7 NOC/WAN role where I can lead proactive monitoring, own incident lifecycle within SLA, run RCA, and collaborate with L2/L3 teams to improve uptime and network performance.

I’m a Network Engineer with 2+ years of experience in NOC operations, WAN support, and enterprise network monitoring. I’m trusted to manage 7000+ active WAN links and keep networks highly available in 24/7 environments through proactive alert monitoring and rapid incident handling.

I specialize in leased line management and routing & switching, with hands-on TCP/IP troubleshooting across DNS, DHCP, VLAN, ARP, and ICMP. I conduct root cause analysis (RCA), perform link flapping and packet loss/latency investigations, and validate connectivity during outages and degraded performance.

I’m comfortable running end-to-end incident lifecycle—from detection to resolution—while coordinating with Field Engineers, vendors, and local operations teams. I also support SLA compliance, escalate complex issues to L2/L3 teams, and apply strong customer & stakeholder communication to drive timely outcomes.
