At Tufin, I test SecureTrack and SecureChange and validate security policies across Fortinet, Palo Alto Panorama, Check Point, and Forcepoint environments. I also develop automated tests using Kotlin, Java, and Playwright, and integrate suites into Jenkins pipelines.

At Ribbon Communications, I led router security compliance testing and developed Python scripts to reduce repetitive validation work. I also performed RFC-based testing of network technologies and handled Tier-3 troubleshooting across IP-MPLS and Layer 2/3 networks.
