Scope: The primary focus of these roles is to perform patching and upgrading of Cisco network equipment (routers and switches), conduct vulnerability assessments, and support the design and implementation of secure, resilient network infrastructure. This includes advanced responsibilities across Cisco ACI, network segmentation strategies, and Network Access Control (NAC) solutions.

Certifications Preferred: CCNA/CCNP & Additional certifications in Cisco ACI, Cisco ISE, or SDN networking are advantageous.

Experience:

• 5–7 years of experience planning, designing, implementing, and supporting new and existing network systems.

• Extensive hands‑on experience with Cisco routers, switches, and wireless access points. - Cisco ISE, Cisco ACI, Cisco Nexus

• Strong background in patching and upgrading Cisco network equipment (routers/switches).

• Proficiency in router/switch configuration and break‑fix troubleshooting.

• Experience implementing network segmentation and NAC enforcement.

Responsibilities:

• Design, implement, and manage the organization’s network infrastructure—including LAN, WAN, SDN, Cisco ACI fabrics, and OT networks—ensuring high availability, performance, scalability, and reliability.

• Deploy, maintain, and optimize Cisco network technologies, including routers, switches, wireless access points, and ACI components, while ensuring secure operations through proactive monitoring, troubleshooting, and lifecycle upgrades.

• Enhance network security and compliance by developing, implementing, and enforcing policies related to segmentation, NAC enforcement, and industry-aligned standards and regulatory requirements.

• Implement and maintain network segmentation strategies, including micro-segmentation and policy-based controls across ACI and traditional environments.

• Administer NAC technologies (e.g., Cisco ISE), ensuring secure device authentication, access enforcement, and continuous posture assessments.
