What I'm looking for
I'm currently designing, configuring, and managing Azure networking infrastructure at DGFuturetech India, including VNets, subnets, NSGs, UDRs, route tables, and VNet peering.
I've implemented hybrid connectivity through Site-to-Site VPN and ExpressRoute, and I troubleshoot production connectivity across landing zones involving routing, Azure Firewall, DNS, private connectivity, NSGs, and VPNs. I also monitor infrastructure with Azure Monitor and Log Analytics and automate routine tasks using Azure ARM and PowerShell.
At LTIMindtree, I supported Microsoft customers using Azure Virtual Networks, ExpressRoute, VPN Gateway, Azure Load Balancer, and NSGs. I improved troubleshooting through diagnostic logs, monitoring tools, and network traces while designing network segmentation and micro-segmentation strategies using NSGs and ASGs.
