- Proven track record running operational meetings and driving structured escalation handling to resolution.

Responsibilities
- Manage and oversee day-to-day network and security operations across routing, switching, and cybersecurity engineering, keeping the Lead informed of status, risks, and escalations.
- Design, configure, and maintain enterprise routing and switching infrastructure (core, distribution, access layers) to ensure high availability, performance, and resilience.
- Own the operational health of routers, switches, firewalls, and related network devices, including change management, patching, and lifecycle upgrades.
- Lead cybersecurity engineering activities across network security tooling — firewalls, IDS/IPS, NAC, VPN, and secure network architecture — in coordination with the Lead's priorities.
- Harden network device configurations against industry benchmarks (e.g., CIS) and internal security baselines; remediate findings from internal/external audits.
- Monitor network and security operations centers for incidents, anomalies, and performance degradation; drive root-cause analysis and permanent fixes.
- Prepare and present operational reports, dashboards, and presentations summarizing network/security performance, incidents, and risk posture to the Lead and stakeholders.
- Plan and run operational meetings — daily/weekly stand-ups, service reviews, and incident review sessions — driving action items to closure.
- Act as the primary escalation point for critical operational and security issues, ensuring timely resolution and clear communication to the Lead and affected teams.
- Own and handle major changes end-to-end — planning, risk assessment, change advisory board (CAB) submissions, implementation, and post-change validation.
- Coordinate cross-functional operational activities with security engineering, infrastructure, and application teams to ensure consistent security posture across the environment.
- Support capacity planning, network segmentation, and disaster recovery/business continuity design for routing and switching environments.
- Evaluate and recommend network and security tooling, vendors, and service providers; support procurement and implementation planning.
- Maintain accurate operational documentation, network diagrams, runbooks, and standard operating procedures.

- Provide on-call support and respond to critical incidents outside business hours as required; travel to datacenter or client sites as needed.
