- Review proposed network designs, challenge where appropriate, and recommend practical alternative approaches.
- Provide technical direction across enterprise networking, Wi‑Fi, firewalls and network security.
- Guide the use of software‑defined networking, segmentation and micro‑segmentation, assessing the benefits and trade‑offs of different approaches.
- Ensure network solutions meet business, operational, performance and security requirements.
- Provide pragmatic, real‑world architectural guidance rather than purely high‑level conceptual design.
About you
