Job Overview

We are looking for a highly skilled and hands-on
Network Engineer
who can independently manage, configure, troubleshoot, and support end-to-end network infrastructure.

The ideal candidate should be an
all-round network professional
with strong expertise in
LAN/WAN, routing & switching, firewalls, network security, infrastructure setup, and troubleshooting
. The candidate should be capable of diagnosing and resolving complex network issues across different layers of the infrastructure.

Key Responsibilities
- Own end-to-end administration of the Sophos firewall (XG/XGS) — policy configuration, VPN (site-to-site & remote access), NAT/routing rules, IPS, web/application filtering, and firmware upgrades.
- Manage LAN/WAN network infrastructure: switches, access points, structured cabling, IP addressing/VLAN design, and ISP/leased-line coordination and escalation.
- Administer Microsoft Intune (and broader M365 admin center) — device enrollment,



compliance policies, conditional access, app deployment, and endpoint license management/allocation across the growing headcount.
- Provide day-to-day IT troubleshooting and desktop/user support for 190+ FTEs — hardware, OS, connectivity, printer/peripheral, and account access issues.
- Manage user identity and access: Active Directory / Azure AD account provisioning, deprovisioning, and permissions in line with HR onboarding/offboarding timelines.
- Lead IT security compliance and audit response — respond to Cognizant client audits and CAPA items, close out gaps (e.g., firewall hardening, access controls, patching, logging/monitoring), and maintain audit-ready documentation.
- Coordinate with physical security and CCTV vendors on network-dependent systems (cameras, access control) where they intersect with IT infrastructure.
- Maintain asset inventory, license trackers (Microsoft, Intune, antivirus, Sophos), and IT SOPs
