Collaborate with architects, engineers, security partners, and risk stakeholders to ensure alignment on technical design, compliance expectations, and implementation priorities.
Champion a culture of safe experimentation, enabling teams to validate automation in sandbox environments before production rollout.

Requirements

Proven background in network engineering, including routing, switching, firewalls, segmentation, VPN services, and software-defined networking.
Hands-on expertise with automation frameworks such as Ansible, Terraform, and Python.
Strong understanding of zero-trust architecture, secure API access, credential vaulting, and related security patterns.
