  • Must be able to successfully obtain/maintain a CSSP Infrastructure Support certification within 120 days of the start date.
  • Deep, practical knowledge of legacy Gen 2/Gen 3 hardware (e.g., PA-3000, PA-5000 series), including legacy CLI, physical hardware troubleshooting, and line-card replacements.
  • Next-Gen & Cloud Security: Direct experience deploying and managing modern PAN-OS architectures, including Prisma Access (SASE), Prisma SD-WAN, and virtual firewalls (VM-Series) in public/private cloud environments (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
  • Proven expertise utilizing Panorama for centralized policy management, template/device group inheritance, and pushing configurations across a hybrid fleet.
  • Network Foundations: Advanced understanding of core networking protocols critical to firewall routing and legacy-to-modern transitions, specifically BGP, OSPF, IPSec VPNs, and NAT.
  • Bachelor's degree in a related field (e.g., IT, Cybersecurity, Computer Science). Additional years of relevant experience may be considered in lieu of a degree.

Desired:
  • Advanced Certifications: Active Palo Alto Networks Certified Network Security Consultant (PCNSC) or Prisma Certified SASE Professional (PCSAE).
