Network Architect / Network Specialist (On‑Prem, Global)

3) Security, Remote Access & Identity

• Lead FortiGate policy architecture (zones, NAT, segmentation, IDS/IPS) and FortiGate VPN (IPsec/SSL) for site‑to‑site and remote access, including HA and posture checks.
• Implement 802.1X NAC (e.g., Aruba ClearPass) with RADIUS/Active Directory integration; enforce device posture and guest segmentation.
• Operate DMZ patterns (reverse proxying, jump hosts, constrained admin planes) and align with TISAX/ISMSrequirements.

4) High‑Performance Networking for AI/HPC

• Design, deploy, and maintain NVIDIA InfiniBand fabrics (topology, cabling/optics, partitioning), including subnet managers ( UFM/opensm ), congestion control, and path optimization.
• Coordinate with compute/storage teams (e.g., DGX/HPC clusters) on throughput, latency, and scale; plan upgrades and fabric expansions.

5) Reliability, Observability & Automation

• Deliver high availability (fast convergence, dual‑homing, link aggregation/MLAG/VLT) and tested DR/failover.
• Implement proactive monitoring/alerting (e.g., Zabbix), telemetry/SNMP, and capacity trends; maintain RCAs and SLOs.
• Centralize logging with rsyslog and FortiAnalyzer; enforce retention and integrity for audits.
• Use NetBox, Ansible/Python, and Git‑based workflows for configuration management, drift control, and repeatable changes.

6) Compliance, Risk & Vendor Management (TISAX Focus)

• Map network controls to TISAX expectations (ISMS governance, secure remote access, logging, supplier access, data protection).
• Partner with ISMS owner/CISO on risk assessments, controls testing , and evidence preparation for audits (policies, diagrams, logs, change records).
• Manage carriers and vendors (Fortinet, Aruba, Dell; integrators); lead RFPs, SLAs, and lifecycle planning.
• Mentor regional IT; act as L3 escalation for incidents and major changes.
