Network Engineer / Architect (CCNA / CISSP / Transportation Sector)

Trigyn's direct government client has an immediate need for Network Engineer / Architect in Albany, NY.

Responsibilities include but not limited to the following:

Network Design and Architecture:
? Design, implement, and maintain robust and secure IT and OT network infrastructures for transportation systems (e.g., traffic management centers).
? Develop network architectures that integrate IT and OT environments, ensuring seamless data flow and interoperability.
? Plan for network scalability, redundancy, and disaster recovery to ensure continuous operation of critical transportation services.

Network Implementation and Configuration:
? Install, configure, and manage network hardware (routers, switches, firewalls, wireless access points, VPN concentrators) and software.
? Implement and manage network protocols relevant to both IT (TCP/IP, BGP, OSPF) and OT (Modbus, DNP3, IEC 60870-5-101/104, Profinet, EtherNet/IP).
? Configure and maintain network security devices and policies, including firewalls, intrusion detection/prevention systems (IDS/IPS), and VPNs.
? Deploy and manage network monitoring and management tools.

Network Operations and Maintenance:
? Monitor network performance, identify bottlenecks, and troubleshoot network issues proactively.
? Respond to network incidents and outages, performing root cause analysis and implementing corrective actions.
? Perform regular network maintenance, including software/firmware updates and hardware replacements.
? Manage network configurations and documentation, ensuring accuracy and completeness.

IT/OT Convergence and Security:
? Bridge the gap between IT and OT networks, understanding the unique requirements and challenges of each.
? Implement and enforce cybersecurity best practices for both IT and OT environments, adhering to relevant industry standards (e.g., NIST Cybersecurity Framework, ISA/IEC 62443).
? Develop and implement network segmentation strategies to isolate critical OT systems from IT networks.
? Conduct security assessments and vulnerability testing of network infrastructure.

Collaboration and Support:
? Collaborate with cross-functional teams (e.g. business, technical and security) to ensure network requirements are met.
? Provide technical guidance and support to operations staff.
? Participate in project planning, design reviews, and implementation phases.
? Stay abreast of emerging technologies and industry trends in IT, OT, and transportation systems.

Documentation and Reporting:
? Create and maintain detailed network diagrams, configuration guides, and operational procedures.
? Generate reports on network performance, security incidents, and project status.

Mandatory Qualifications:
? Designs and implements computer and information networks, such as local area networks (LAN), wide area networks (WAN), intranets, extranets, and other data communications networks. Performs network modeling, analysis, and planning.
? Candidate is able to work independently, without assistance and provides guidance to others. May have an advanced education.

? 72 months experience in foundational IT and OT networking including networking protocols (routing, switching and wireless protocols); network design and architecture; network security principles; and network monitoring and troubleshooting
? 72 months experience in designing, building, securing and managing IT and OT networks, with IT/OT convergence challenges and solutions preferably in the Transportation sector.
? 60 months experience in OT including network protocols; cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities; IT/OT Convergence challenges; and real-time data processing and management
? 60 months experience in specific networks needs of transportation sector technologies such as adaptive traffic signal control; safety and reliability standards; Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS); and Advanced Traffic Management Systems (ATMS).
? 60 months experience with IT and OT Network operational support including incident response and root cause analysis.
? 48 months experience with Cybersecurity specific to IT/OT Convergence including implementation of layered security approaches; compliance with regulations and standards; and zero-trust architecture and implementation
? 48 months experience collaboration with cross-functional teams (business, technical and security); and producing both written and verbal communication articulating secure networking concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences

MUST hold at least one of these Certifications:
? Cisco (CCNA, CCNP, CCIE)
? CompTIA Network+/Security+
