- Develop detailed network designs (WAN, LAN, routing, security) and oversee implementation.
- Drive end‑to‑end delivery, from architecture through deployment and testing.
- Ensure seamless handover of designs by acting as a Technical Delivery SME (Day 1) and ensuring readiness with the Technical Operations SME (Day 2).
