  • Review, analyze, and execute network change requests.
  • Execute, document, and develop network automation for repetitive tasks.

  • Experience with: Data center switching (L2/L3). vPC, Port-Channels, STP, HSRP/VRRP. NX-OS upgrades, ISSU planning, rollback strategies. Troubleshooting large-scale DC fabrics.

    Experience in: VIPs, pools, health monitors. Persistence, SSL offloading. Performance tuning and capacity planning. Supporting high-traffic production applications. Experience integrating F5 with data center or cloud workloads
  • Enterprise / Large-Scale Experience:
    Data center buildouts or expansions Major network migrations (DC refresh, firewall migration, LB migration) Large enterprise networks (hundreds/thousands of users, multi-site) High-availability, 24 7 production environments
  • Strong understanding of BGP, OSPF (MPLS is a plus). Experience with:
