What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a Senior Telecommunication Network Engineer position at AGE Solutions, where I can apply my expertise in LAN design and network modernization to support innovative, client-focused technology solutions for the U.S. government and defense sectors.

At Sprint / T-Mobile, I managed the migration from legacy TDM switching infrastructure to SIP-based soft switch architecture, reducing operating costs by approximately $5M annually. I also guided a team through the transition and coordinated technical delivery activities.

At T-Mobile, I implemented five new peering partner connections across circuit integration, IP addressing, BGP, and IPv6. Most recently, at Insight Global (Contract T-Mobile), I analyzed carrier network performance and built Excel and Power BI dashboards to support infrastructure planning and outage response.
