    • Participate in network architecture planning, capacity forecasting, and modernization efforts.
    • Create and maintain network diagrams, standards, and operational documentation.
    • Collaborate with cybersecurity, server, cloud, and application teams to ensure resilient integrations.
    • Provide escalation support for high-priority production issues.
    • Mentor junior engineers and contribute to operational maturity and best practices.

    • Proven experience implementing or supporting SD-WAN.
    • Ability to troubleshoot across layers (routing, security, transport).
    • Experience working in distributed, multi-location environments.
    • Comfortable leading projects and making architecture recommendations.
    • Strong documentation and communication skills.
