  • Perform 3rd and 4th line problem resolution to issues related to network services such as network equipment (routers, switches, crypto, firewalls, gateways, proxies, filters, etc.);
  • Develop, review, modify and maintain Systems Design Specifications (SDS) according to the client’s documentation standards;
