  • Familiarity with network segmentation concepts (e.g., VLAN/VRF) and access control models.
  • Scripting/automation skills (e.g., PowerShell, Python, or Bash) to support troubleshooting and policy consistency.
  • Experience implementing or integrating Cisco ISE (or comparable NAC platforms), with familiarity acceptable if not already deep.
