What I'm looking for
I am a Network Engineer with over 4 years of hands-on experience in building and optimizing secure, high-availability enterprise and cloud network infrastructures. My expertise lies in routing and switching, SD-WAN deployments, and firewall administration across various environments including Cisco, Juniper, Palo Alto, and Fortinet. I have a proven track record of reducing WAN costs and enhancing cloud connectivity to AWS and Azure, utilizing Direct Connect and VPN Gateways.
Throughout my career, I have successfully implemented 802.1X authentication and access control via Cisco ISE, aligning infrastructure with ITIL and compliance frameworks such as NIST 800-53 and ISO 27001. I am adept at using monitoring tools like SolarWinds and Wireshark for real-time analysis, which has allowed me to boost network uptime and improve segmentation significantly. My commitment to continuous improvement and security has led to successful internal audits with no critical findings.
