About the Role
We're looking for a Network Security Engineer to design, implement, and secure enterprise network infrastructure built on Aruba and HPE technologies.

Design, configure, and maintain enterprise network infrastructure using Aruba and HPE hardware and platforms
Implement and manage network security controls, including firewalls, VPNs, and access control policies
Monitor network traffic and security events to identify and respond to potential threats
Conduct network security assessments and vulnerability analysis
Design and enforce network segmentation, VLANs, and wireless security architecture
Troubleshoot network performance, connectivity, and security incidents
Maintain documentation for network architecture, configurations, and security policies
Collaborate with IT and security teams to align network infrastructure with broader security standards
Support compliance efforts related to network and IT security requirements
Stay current on emerging network security threats and Aruba/HPE platform capabilities
What You Bring
Strong hands-on experience with Aruba networking and security products
Experience with HP Enterprise (HPE) infrastructure and platforms
Solid background in IT security, including threat identification and mitigation
Strong network engineering skills, including routing, switching, and wireless architecture
Practical experience implementing network security best practices and controls
Ability to troubleshoot complex network and security issues independently
Strong documentation and communication skills for cross-functional collaboration
Nice to Have
Relevant certifications (e.g., Aruba Certified, HPE certifications, Security+, CCNA/CCNP Security)
Experience with network access control (NAC) solutions
Familiarity with SIEM tools and security monitoring platforms
Experience supporting compliance frameworks (e.g., PCI-DSS, HIPAA, ISO 27001)
