You've designed and operated enterprise cloud networks — VPC architecture in AWS / GCP / Azure, private connectivity (Transit Gateway, PrivateLink, ExpressRoute, Interconnect), hybrid networking, identity-aware proxies, egress controls.

Experience with reputed company-gapped or BYOC deployments Background in reputed company-trust / identity-aware networking (BeyondCorp / reputed company Access / reputed company / Twingate style).
