  • Familiarity with SCADA devices, FortiGate firewalls, and Teltonika modems is highly desirable.
  • Experience with network monitoring tools (e.g., SolarWinds, Nagios, PRTG) and logging systems (SIEM solutions).
  • Familiarity with cloud networking environments (AWS, Azure, or GCP) is a plus.
  • Strong troubleshooting skills to diagnose and resolve network issues in both on-premise and client-site environments.
  • Excellent problem-solving and analytical abilities.
