  • Monitoring & Log Analysis: Audit infrastructure health| capacity| and security event logs utilizing tools like VMware Aria Operations (formerly vRealize)| Network Insight| or third-party SIEM platforms like Splunk.
  • Cross-Team Collaboration: Work alongside systems engineers| traditional network administrators| and the Security Operations Center (SOC) to troubleshoot physical-to-virtual network overlays.
  • Incident Response Support: Assist security incident teams by performing deep-packet inspection| tracing network flows| and applying emergency isolation rules during an active breach.
Technical Requirements & Skills
  • VMware Ecosystem: Deep hands-on experience with VMware vSphere| ESXi| vCenter| and comprehensive NSX-T/NSX architecture.
  • Core Networking Protocols: Expert-level knowledge of BGP| OSPF| Geneve/VXLAN overlay encapsulation| VLANs| and TCP/IP stack.
  • Firewalling & Security: Strong understanding of Layer 4-7 firewall rules| intrusion detection/prevention systems (IDS/IPS)| and zero-trust concepts.
  • Automation/Scripting: Proficiency with PowerShell/PowerCLI| Python| Terraform| or interacting directly with NSX REST APIs.
  • Third-Party Integration: Familiarity with integrating NSX with physical next-gen firewalls (e.g.| Palo Alto Networks| Check Point) or cloud networking environments like AWS and Azure.
