What I'm looking for

I’m open to remote and global roles.

At Abunayyan Holding Company, I administer Zscaler and Forcepoint access policies and manage FortiGate firewalls across headquarters, branch and factory sites in Saudi Arabia and the UAE. I’ve reviewed and hardened firewall policies, decommissioned unused SSL VPN services, and designed Aruba switching for site networks.

At New Era Technologies, I delivered remote L2 NOC support for 100+ enterprise sites across North America, EMEA and APAC, maintaining 99.5% SLA compliance. I also supported mission-critical airport networks at King Fahd International Airport and managed hotel LAN/WAN networks at Taj International Hotel.
