Selected engineering projects: network architecture and audits, security segmentation, and AI-assisted operations, written up the way I actually worked them.
Auditing a Service Provider Grade Enterprise Network
How I approach a full infrastructure audit of a large, service-provider-grade enterprise network: turning live device state into an evidence-based design document, a prioritized risk register, and a budgeted multi-year modernization roadmap. This is a composite of the audit work I do, with specifics generalized.
View Case StudyAn Internal AI Platform for Network Operations
Built a self-hosted AI platform on Open WebUI: local models on in-house GPUs plus commercial APIs under a strict no-training policy, purpose-built assistants with tool access to NetBox and GitLab, and an AI-assisted NOC pipeline that hands on-call engineers a pre-built investigation report instead of a raw alert.
View Case StudyRetrofitting East-West Segmentation into a Live Enterprise Network
An enterprise had edge firewalls and nothing else: any internal segment could reach any other without inspection. Designed and deployed an internal segmentation firewall between VRFs using Cisco Secure Firewall 4100 appliances and FMC, going from allow-all with logging to enforced least-privilege policy over a series of maintenance windows, with zero user-facing disruption.
