As a Technical Consulting Engineer at Cisco, I specialize in building secure, scalable, and automated network ecosystems. With 3+ years of hands-on experience across enterprise networking, security engineering, and infrastructure automation, I combine deep technical expertise with a strong problem-solving approach to help customers achieve resilient and high-performance architectures. I design and implement end-to-end solutions leveraging Python automation, REST APIs, Terraform, Cisco NSO, Kubernetes, and modern DevOps practices. My work includes engineering automation frameworks that reduce manual effort by 40%, deploying Infrastructure-as-Code pipelines that cut configuration time by 70%, and delivering cross-domain Cisco security platforms that decrease incidents by up to 40%. My career progression—from Security Consulting Engineer to Engineering advanced automation for global customers—reflects my commitment to continuous learning and impact-driven execution. I’ve also led technical enablement initiatives by conducting training sessions on Cisco Vulnerability Management for TAC and Professional Services teams. Beyond Cisco, I’ve contributed to AR/VR development at XoRphilic, where I strengthened my understanding of interactive systems and user-centric design. I hold multiple industry certifications including DevNet Professional, CKA, CKAD, and CKS, supported by a strong academic foundation (B.Tech, CSE – KIIT, CGPA 9.3).
