A computer network engineer designs, implements, and maintains computer networks such as local area networks (LANs), wide area networks (WANs), and intranets. They configure network hardware, troubleshoot connectivity issues, and ensure network security using tools like firewalls and VPNs, often holding certifications like Cisco CCNA or CompTIA Network+.

Will AI replace CCNA jobs?

Computer Networking Engineers with CCNA certification perform tasks such as configuring and troubleshooting network devices, which require technical expertise and problem-solving skills. While AI can assist with automation and routine tasks, it is unlikely to fully replace networking professionals, as complex network design and security management still demand human oversight and specialized knowledge.
