The ideal candidate will possess solid L2/L3 expertise, the ability to deploy Active Directory, and strong competency in configuring and managing firewalls. Experience with modern security solutions such as EDR, DLP, SASE, and NAC will be considered an added advantage.

Key Responsibilities:

Enterprise Network Solution Implementation

  • Deploy and support network solutions across switching, routing, VLAN, WAN, VPN, and SD-WAN environments.
  • Participate in HLD/LLD creation, network diagrams, configuration plans, and solution documentation.
  • Execute enterprise rollout activities, including testing, integration, migrations, and customer handover.
  • Collaborate with architects and senior engineers to refine designs and ensure best-practice deployments.

Active Directory Deployment & Server Integration

  • Deploy Active Directory from the ground up, including domain setup, OU structure, GPO configuration, DNS/DHCP integration, and user/group policies.
  • Integrate AD with network services and ensure seamless authentication and directory services operations.
  • Support domain controller maintenance, backup strategies, replication health, and AD hardening measures.

Advanced L2/L3 Network Operations

  • Troubleshoot complex issues involving routing, switching, segmentation, and multi-vendor interoperability.
  • Perform configuration changes, firmware upgrades, optimization tasks, and performance tuning.
  • Execute RCA, incident resolution, and proactive monitoring using industry-standard tools.

Security Alignment

  • Configure firewalls, including policies, NAT, VPNs, security profiles, and authentication integrations.
  • Hands-on experience with platforms such as FortiGate, SonicWall, Palo Alto, Sophos, or equivalent.
  • Troubleshoot firewall-related issues during deployments and customer escalations.
  • Assist with firewall policies, VPN configurations, segmentation, and secure access workflows.
  • Collaborate with security teams to improve posture and meet compliance requirements.

Value-Added Exposure (Preferred)

  • EDR integration and basic policy troubleshooting.
  • DLP concepts and endpoint/network-level data protection workflows.
  • SASE frameworks and cloud-based secure access models.

Team Collaboration & Documentation

  • Support L1/L2 engineers during escalations and guide them with best practices.
  • Maintain updated documentation, SOPs, project notes, and knowledge base articles.

  • Strong expertise in L2/L3 networking (VLAN, STP, OSPF, BGP, VRRP/HSRP, VPN, routing fundamentals).
  • Hands-on experience with enterprise infrastructure (Cisco/Juniper/HPE/MikroTik).
  • Proven ability to deploy and configure Active Directory environments end-to-end.
  • Understanding of firewalls, secure connectivity, and network segmentation.
  • Experience with troubleshooting tools (Wireshark, NetFlow, and SNMP/NMS platforms).
  • Strong problem-solving, communication, and documentation skills.

Added Preference (Not Mandatory)

  • Exposure to EDR, DLP, and SASE platforms.
  • Knowledge of cloud networking (Azure/AWS/GCP).
  • Experience in MSP/SI or enterprise-grade IT environments.

Qualifications

  • 3–4 years of experience in network engineering and infrastructure implementation.
  • Relevant certifications such as CCNA / CCNP / JNCIA / MCSA / ITIL Foundation are advantageous.
