Strong ability to troubleshoot complex cloud networking issues, routing asymmetry, DNS behavior, SNAT limitations, and packet-level flow analysis. Preferred Qualifications: Experience with next-generation firewalls and virtual security appliances (e.g., Palo Alto, Check Point, Fortinet). Understanding of advanced compute/networking capabilities such as Azure VM Scale Sets, global load balancing, and multi-region architectures. Experience with multi-cloud networking, including AWS Transit Gateway, GCP VPC, or hybrid multi-cloud routing. Exposure to SD-WAN, SASE architectures, zero-trust frameworks, or multi-cloud networking platforms. Strong network diagnostic experience using tools such as Wireshark, tcpdump, or cloud-native packet capture. Familiarity with container networking (AKS) and service mesh patterns is a plus.
