Cloud networking: Configure and manage AWS network infrastructure including VPCs, VPC peering, transit gateways, CIDR block planning and allocation, security groups, route tables, and hybrid connectivity back to on-premises environments.
Monitoring & troubleshooting: Implement and maintain network monitoring toolsets; perform deep packet analysis and network tracing using Wireshark and similar tools to diagnose and resolve complex connectivity and performance issues.
Vendor management: Work directly with Cisco and other network equipment vendors on hardware selection, support escalations, lifecycle planning, and licensing.
Automation & optimization: Identify and implement opportunities to automate configuration, monitoring, and management tasks to increase efficiency and reliability.
Project execution: Drive and manage the successful delivery of complex network projects, ensuring milestones are met and issues are resolved promptly.
Stakeholder communication: Develop and deliver clear presentations to leadership and other teams to communicate strategy, status updates, and performance metrics.
Data analysis: Use strong data analysis and Excel skills to understand and reconcile cost, inventory, capacity, trend, risk, and performance metrics.
Collaboration: Work closely with systems, cloud, security, operations, and application teams to integrate best practices across the technology stack.
Documentation & support: Develop and maintain detailed documentation of network designs, configurations, topologies, and processes; provide technical guidance and support to other team members.
Continuous improvement: Research, evaluate, and recommend new technologies, tools, and best practices to advance our network capabilities.
Qualifications:- 7-10 years of experience engineering and administering global network environments.
