  • Support data center operations, including activities such as racking, cabling, hardware replacement, and managing UPS systems and cooling infrastructure.
  • Develop, maintain, and enhance Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and Network Operations Center (NOC) documentation to standardize and streamline operations.
  • Implement network changes in alignment with ITIL-based change management processes, ensuring changes are well-documented, tested, and executed.


Qualifications

Required:

  • Familiarity with Cisco ISE for authentication and access control.
  • Expertise in monitoring and troubleshooting network performance with tools like SolarWinds, Splunk, and Netcool.

  • Ability to obtain and maintain public trust clearance.


Preferred:
