Consultation & Strategic Advisory
Act as the primary Subject Matter Expert (SME) for cloud engineering and cloud networking across multiple major Cloud Service Providers, as well as hybrid connectivity solutions.
Conduct comprehensive assessments of on-premises and cloud network infrastructures to identify vulnerabilities, inefficiencies, and opportunities for enhancement.
Develop tailored cloud and networking strategies, detailed roadmaps, and technical designs that align with business goals, security mandates, and financial parameters.
Provide expert consultation and guidance to key areas, contributing to the development of functional strategy and process improvements.
Design & Architect
Design and implement resilient, scalable, and secure cloud and network architectures spanning multi-cloud and hybrid environments (e.g., AWS Cloud WAN, AWS Transit Gateway, Direct Connect, Azure ExpressRoute, VPNs).
Architect and deploy advanced security solutions, including cloud firewalls (Imperva WAF, NWFW), network segmentation (VPC/VNet peering, micro-segmentation), and DDoS mitigation techniques.
Ensure all designs comply with industry’s best practices, regulatory standards (SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI), and organizational policies.
Collaborate with infrastructure, risk management, application, and support teams to review design and test plans, determine potential gaps, and develop alternative solutions.
Implementation & Automation
Deliver software programs, scripts, configuration files, and other programming artifacts using tools such as AWS, Azure, Terraform, Ansible, and Azure DevOps Pipelines.
Lead and deliver complex cloud network migration and modernization initiatives from planning through execution.
Utilize Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools (Terraform preferred) to automate deployment and management of cloud and network resources.
Enhance system and network performance via traffic engineering, load balancing, and Application Delivery Controller (ADC) configurations.
Monitor system and network performance, recommend and automate corrective actions, and ensure end-to-end availability and performance of mission-critical services.
Mentorship & Documentation
Produce comprehensive documentation, including network diagrams, design specifications, operational runbooks, and client-facing presentations.
Communicate complex details in a way that is understandable to both technical and non-technical audiences, collaborating with stakeholders at all levels.
Mentor and develop less experienced engineers, promoting knowledge sharing and technical excellence within the team.
