SUMMARY
Senior Network Engineer with over 20 years of hands-on experience with various information technologies and a strong
knowledge of Networking and Information Security. Have successfully architected and implemented many Arista, Brocade,
Cisco, Juniper MLS and Firewalls in HA for non-interrupted operations in multiple data centers. I have established numerous
site-to-site VPN tunnels to provide secure network access to private resources over the Internet, and set up many remote-to-
site VPN access locations for large mobile work force. I have extensive experience designing and configuring multiple high-
speed Internet circuits with dual ISPs by using external BGP routing protocol for load-sharing and auto-failover. Most
recently, I designed and implemented highly redundant and scalable network infrastructure based on spine-and-leaf topology
with OSPF using ECMP for Seagate’s latest Cloud-based backup, restore, Cloud Disaster Recovery, and high capacity long-
term storage services.
