This role will focus on network architecture, data center environments, and enterprise security, serving as a trusted advisor to both clients and internal stakeholders.

Responsibilities

• Architect and design comprehensive, scalable, and secure on-premise infrastructure solutions, including networking, security, data centers, compute, storage, virtualization, and physical appliances.
• Evaluate and recommend appropriate hardware, software, and networking technologies to ensure optimal performance, resilience, and compliance with industry standards.
• Develop detailed Bills of Materials (BOMs), Statements of Work (SOWs), and cost models for complex infrastructure and security projects.
• Review and analyze technical requirements (e.g., Terms of Reference or TOR), ensuring proposed solutions meet technical specifications, eligibility criteria, and existing customer environment constraints.
• Collaborate with internal engineering teams and third-party vendors to ensure seamless deployment, integration, and secure operation of infrastructure solutions.
