• Lead integration of Cisco SD-WAN across data centers, branch locations, and cloud platforms
• Plan and optimize private and cloud connectivity, including backbone routing, private circuits, VPNs, and cloud on-ramps
• Support network governance, lifecycle management, and compliance requirements in regulated environments
• Strengthen security through segmentation, private endpoints, cloud-native controls, and identity-aware access approaches
• Develop and maintain infrastructure automation using tools such as Terraform, Bicep, or CloudFormation
• Improve visibility and troubleshooting through telemetry, flow logs, SD-WAN analytics, and monitoring tools such as SolarWinds
• Collaborate with cloud, security, and infrastructure teams to support modernization and network transformation initiatives
• Architect and maintain Cisco ACI fabrics, including tenant design, contracts, service graphs, and multipod or multisite environments
• Support Layer 2 extension, routing, load balancing, and high-availability network designs
• Drive routing strategy using protocols such as BGP, OSPF, and EVPN across cloud and on-premises environments
• Lead root-cause analysis and resolution of complex networking issues across hybrid infrastructure
