  • Integrate and support on-premises and cloud-based network services (Azure, AWS).
  • Implement network automation and monitoring tools (e.g., FortiManager, Meraki Dashboard, SNMP).
  • Collaborate with security teams to enforce network security best practices and compliance.

Qualifications

  • Additional Requirements
