Job Details What We Are Looking For:

This role focuses on Cisco switches and routers, Cisco ASA, Cisco ISE, ForeScout, and Palo Alto firewalls, all configured to DoD compliance frameworks.

Design and implement network architecture according to required compliance frameworks and IT security requirements.

Configure and deploy Cisco switches, routers, Cisco ASA firewalls, Cisco ISE, and Palo Alto firewalls to build robust, reliable network infrastructure.

Implement and maintain network security measures, including ACLs, Comply-to-Connect (C2C), VLANs, 802.1x, TACACS, and firewall policies, to meet DoD security requirements.

Ensure network architecture and supporting equipment comply with DISA STIGs/SRGs.

Perform network checks in support of CORA readiness assessments.

Deliver on project scope and schedule as defined in the contract statement of work.

Conduct customer training and respond to customer questions within 8 business hours.

Monitor client satisfaction and escalate issues to the Project Manager or Lead Engineer.

Collaborate with cross-functional teams to assess requirements and propose solutions aligned with client business and security needs.

Create and maintain network documentation, including Visio diagrams, configurations, and SOPs.
