• Develop corrective actions with engineering stakeholders, document proposed changes and rollback considerations, and implement approved changes during authorized maintenance windows.
• Plan and conduct end-to-end validation with relevant application and video systems, and support post-implementation issue resolution.
• Co-lead secure network integration design with a security engineer and review high-level and low-level designs, network diagrams, and future-state documentation.
• Maintain configuration records, technical findings, validation evidence, and sustainment guidance, and provide knowledge transfer to operational teams.

Job Required Qualifications:
• Active CCIE Enterprise Infrastructure certification.
• Demonstrated expertise in enterprise routing and switching, multicast networking, packet-capture analysis, and video-transport troubleshooting.
• Experience analyzing IGMP and PIM behavior, multicast forwarding, VLAN and routing design, and network performance across complex paths.

• U.S. person status, active Secret clearance, and ability to meet applicable secure-facility access requirements.
