The candidate will be responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining network segmentation strategies to improve security, scalability, and efficiency across our IT infrastructure. The candidate will play a critical role in ensuring secure and reliable network traffic flow across different segments of the enterprise, leveraging Cisco ACI and VMware NSX to optimize performance and security. ## Description * Design and implement advanced network segmentation strategies using Cisco ACI and VMware NSX to improve security, performance, and network isolation across the data center environments. * Architect and deploy VLANs, security zones, and micro-segmentation policies to meet business and security requirements. * Collaborate with internal teams to ensure network segmentation aligns with the broader IT infrastructure strategy. Cisco ACI & VMware NSX Deployment: * Lead the implementation and configuration of Cisco ACI and VMware NSX solutions to create secure and efficient network topologies. * Perform the integration of Cisco ACI with VMware NSX and other network technologies to create a unified, scalable, and agile network architecture. * Troubleshoot and optimize Cisco ACI and VMware NSX environments, ensuring network segments are appropriately isolated and compliant with security policies. Security & Compliance: * Implement and enforce security policies across network segments using Cisco ACI and VMware NSX, ensuring compliance with industry standards (e.g., NIST, PCI-DSS, HIPAA). * Work closely with security and compliance teams to design network segmentation strategies that reduce attack surfaces and improve overall security posture. * Automate segmentation and security policies to streamline network management and improve response times to security incidents. Automation & Orchestration: * Utilize automation tools (such as Ansible, NetBrain, or Python scripts) to deploy and manage network segmentation configurations and policies in Cisco ACI and VMware NSX. * Collaborate with DevOps and cloud engineering teams to integrate network segmentation into CI/CD pipelines and cloud-native architectures. Performance Monitoring & Optimization: * Continuously monitor the performance and health of the network segments using Cisco ACI and VMware NSX monitoring tools. * Identify network bottlenecks, vulnerabilities, and areas for optimization and apply necessary adjustments to improve performance and security. Collaboration & Documentation: * Work closely with cross-functional teams, including Network, Security, and Cloud Engineering, to ensure a seamless integration of network segmentation with other systems and services. * Maintain accurate documentation for network segmentation configurations, policies, and procedures to ensure effective knowledge transfer and support. * Provide regular updates and reports to stakeholders regarding the status of network segmentation projects, performance, and security posture. ## Related Videos - [WebAssembly: The Next Frontier of Cloud Computing](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/972-webassembly-the-next-frontier-of-cloud-computing) - [From DevOps to Scaled DevOps: How We’re Rebuilding Continuous Delivery as a Platform](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100018-from-devops-to-scaled-devops-how-we-re-rebuilding-continuous-delivery-as-a-platform) - [Dev & Test in the Cloud?
