I lead Cisco data center and network security migrations for enterprise and carrier clients.
What I'm looking for
At Telecom District, I lead perimeter security and data center modernization for enterprise and carrier clients, including AT&T Mexico. I migrated 30 services and 60+ VLAN segments to a Cisco NGDC L2VPN/EVPN-VXLAN fabric.
I directed a Cisco ASA-to-Firepower 3130 refresh and personally executed a 24-hour migration enabling SAML/Azure AD access for 2,500 national points of sale. I also re-architected national site-to-site and remote-access VPN hubs and optimized BGP peering across an MPLS core.
Previously at Atos, I supported U.S. healthcare infrastructure across WAN, VPN, Cisco Nexus, ASA, ISE, and F5 BIG-IP. I completed an F5 high-availability platform migration without service interruption and served as a third-level escalation point.
I've spent 15+ years delivering routing, switching, security, load balancing, and disaster-recovery work for carriers, financial institutions, healthcare clients, and U.S.-facing brands. I work remotely in a U.S.-aligned time zone in fluent English and Spanish, using Python and AI-assisted tooling to automate operational work.
