• Develop and implement network infrastructure solutions, including LAN/WAN architecture, firewall policies, IP addressing, Quality of Service (QoS), encryption, authentication, network continuity, and monitoring strategies.
• Install, configure, and integrate routers, switches, firewalls, and supporting infrastructure with mission systems, server environments, data links, and WAN networks while ensuring compliance with DoD Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs).
• Optimize network performance through capacity planning, latency analysis, bandwidth optimization, and traffic engineering using technologies such as MPLS, segment routing, policing, and traffic shaping.
• Troubleshoot complex network and cybersecurity issues by performing root cause analysis and utilizing tools such as Wireshark, NetFlow, telemetry platforms, and commercial network monitoring solutions.
• Implement Zero Trust networking principles and support cybersecurity compliance through NIST 800-53 controls, firewall rule management, zone segmentation, centralized security management, and network automation using Ansible, Python, and scripting tools.
• Create technical documentation, network diagrams, and operational procedures while collaborating across multidisciplinary engineering teams and mentoring junior engineers to support successful system delivery.

WHO WE ARE
EADGE-T is a geographically dispersed engineering team delivering the UAE Tech Refresh through an Agile Scrum development environment. Our team works across systems, software, hardware, cybersecurity, networking, and integration disciplines to deliver next-generation air and missile defense capabilities.
