In this role, you will play a critical role in safeguarding our organization's digital infrastructure by designing, implementing, and maintaining robust network security solutions. Your expertise will ensure the protection of sensitive data and systems against evolving cyber threats through proactive monitoring and rapid incident response. You will collaborate closely with IT teams to configure and optimize security devices such as Cisco ASA firewalls and intrusion detection systems, ensuring seamless integration and maximum effectiveness. This role demands continuous evaluation of security protocols and the development of strategies to mitigate vulnerabilities and enhance overall network resilience. Ultimately, your efforts will contribute to maintaining a secure and compliant network environment that supports business continuity and growth.

You will design, deploy, and manage Cisco ASA, Fortinet, and Palo Alto firewalls and other network security appliances to protect organizational assets. You will monitor network traffic and security alerts using tools like Splunk to detect and respond to potential threats promptly. You will conduct regular vulnerability assessments and penetration testing to identify and remediate security weaknesses. You develop and maintain security policies, procedures, and documentation in alignment with industry best practices and compliance requirements. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to implement security enhancements and support incident response activities.

To thrive in this career, you'll have proven experience working with Cisco ASA, Fortinet, Palo Alto firewalls and configuring firewall rules and policies, coupled with strong knowledge of intrusion detection systems and network security principles. You know how to work with a team to resolve issues in real-time, and are expected to jump in to support those issues at any time. Pace should not scare you. We still find time for a healthy dose of fun.
