Enhanced Key Responsibilities

• Cloud Architecture:

  Design and manage multi-cloud networking (VPC peering, Transit Gateways, and Direct Connect/ExpressRoute) with a focus on high availability.

• Edge Security & Traffic Analysis:

  Deploy, tune, and manage

  IDS/IPS

  systems (e.g., Snort, Suricata, or Cisco Firepower) to identify and mitigate signature-based and behavioral threats.

• SD-WAN Leadership:

  Lead the migration from legacy MPLS to

  SD-WAN

  architectures (Versa, Silver Peak, or VeloCloud) to optimize application performance and reduce latency.

• Network Forensics & Footprint Review:

  Conduct deep-packet analysis and audit network logs to identify unauthorized access or data exfiltration. Perform "footprint reviews" to eliminate shadow IT and unused public-facing assets.

• Incident Response:

  Serve as the technical lead during network-related security incidents, providing forensic evidence and remediation roadmaps.

Advanced Technical Requirements

• Cloud Mastery:

  Proven experience with

  AWS Networking

  (Transit Gateway, PrivateLink) or

  Azure Networking

  (Virtual WAN, Front Door).

• Deep Security Stack:

  Advanced knowledge of SSL/TLS inspection, WAF, and implementing

  IDS/IPS

  policies at the edge and core.

• SD-WAN:

  Experience in path selection logic, application-aware routing, and zero-touch provisioning.

• Forensics Tools:

  Proficiency with

  Wireshark, TCPDump, NetFlow analysis

  , and SIEM integration (Splunk, ELK, or Sentinel) for footprint auditing.

• Automation:

  Scripting in

  Python or Go

  to automate the detection of configuration drift and unauthorized network changes.

Preferred Qualifications

• Certifications:

  PCNSE (Palo Alto), CCNP Security, or AWS Certified Advanced Networking.

• Experience:

  8+ years in Networking, with at least 3 years focused on Cloud and Security operations.

• Mindset:

  A "security-first" approach to networking, where every route and port is scrutinised for its risk profile.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for this Role

1. Mean Time to Detect (MTTD):

   Speed at which IDS/IPS alerts are validated.

2. Network Resilience:

   Uptime of SD-WAN tunnels and cloud-to-on-premise links.

3. Audit Readiness:

   Accuracy and cleanliness of the external network footprint.
