Summary

Engagement Overview

We are seeking a Wireless Engineer to deliver a focused, short-duration Cisco Meraki engagement for an ITC Houston customer. The customer has migrated from a legacy Cisco on-premises wireless environment to Cisco Meraki MR across two sites (approximately 75 access points) and is approximately 90–95% complete. The engineer will perform a targeted configuration review of the existing deployment and complete the final IoT SSID using Cisco Meraki Access Manager with MAC-based access control.

This is a finishing engagement, not a greenfield deployment. The ideal candidate is comfortable working autonomously against a tight scope, delivering clean documentation, and interfacing directly with the customer''s technical team.

Key Responsibilities

The engineer will be responsible for the full delivery lifecycle across five phases:

Lead kickoff and discovery activities with the customer''s technical team, validating dashboard access, license posture, and prerequisites
Perform a configuration health check of the deployed Meraki dashboard, three live SSIDs (Corporate with 802.1X/RADIUS, Employee Mobile, and Sponsored Guest), and RF profile
Design and configure a fourth SSID for IoT devices using Cisco Meraki Access Manager, including MAC-based authentication policy, identity group creation, allowlist seeding, and VLAN/group policy mapping
Perform functional testing including positive tests with authorized devices, negative tests with unauthorized devices, and regression checks on existing SSIDs
Produce written deliverables including a configuration review summary, as-built documentation, an admin quick-reference runbook, and an engagement closure summary
Conduct a remote knowledge transfer session with the customer''s technical staff on day-two IoT device management
Track hours daily against the 30-hour NTE and escalate proactively if burn rate exceeds plan

Required Skills and Experience

5+ years of hands-on enterprise wireless engineering experience
3+ years of direct Cisco Meraki MR configuration and administration experience
Demonstrated experience with Cisco Meraki Access Manager including identity groups, authentication policies, and MAC-based access control (MAB)
Working knowledge of 802.1X, WPA2/WPA3-Enterprise, EAP-TLS with certificate-based authentication, and RADINPS integration
Experience configuring VLANs, group policies, L3/L7 firewall rules, and traffic shaping in Meraki Dashboard
Familiarity with Meraki organization and network administration, licensing (MR Advanced/Enterprise and Access Manager), and dashboard best practices
Strong troubleshooting skills across wireless authentication, VLAN tagging, DHCP, DNS, and firewall interactions
Ability to write clear, customer-ready technical documentation (as-built, findings reports, runbooks)
Confident customer-facing communication — comfortable running kickoff calls, working sessions, and knowledge transfers directly with a customer''s technical staff

Preferred Skills

Cisco Meraki CMNA or equivalent Meraki certification
CCNA Wireless, CCNP Enterprise Wireless, or CWNP certifications (CWNA, CWSP)
Prior experience migrating enterprise environments from Cisco AireOS/IOS-XE WLC to Meraki
Experience with iPSK as an alternative to MAB for IoT segmentation
Familiarity with Active Directory, Microsoft NPS, and PKI-based certificate deployment
Experience with adjacent Meraki products (MS switches, MX firewalls) for full-stack context
Prior consulting or professional services delivery experience (T&M engagements, SOW-driven work)

Deliverables the Engineer Owns

Configuration review summary document covering the three existing SSIDs
IoT SSID and Access Manager as-built documentation
Test validation results with positive, negative, and regression test outcomes
Admin quick-reference runbook for day-two IoT MAC management
Knowledge transfer session (remote, recorded if requested)
