Supporting, monitoring, and improving network infrastructure and system reliability.
Network engineer passionate about building reliable infrastructure
I'm an IT Engineer with 2+ years of hands-on experience in networking, system administration, and infrastructure support. I specialize in monitoring and securing network systems, with a growing focus on cybersecurity and automation.
I have worked on real-world projects involving network monitoring, system troubleshooting, and infrastructure reliability, alongside formal training in software engineering.
Key areas of focus:
Years Experience
Projects Completed
Certifications
Real-world implementations demonstrating technical expertise
Built a lightweight network monitoring solution that tracks device availability through ICMP ping requests and delivers automated email alerts during outages or recovery events. Features a real-time web dashboard for infrastructure visibility.
Automated network configuration backup system using Python, Netmiko, and APScheduler. Will support scheduled backups, change detection, version control, and email notifications for network devices.
Designed and simulated a multi-department office network using Cisco Packet Tracer. Implemented VLAN segmentation, 802.1Q trunking, router-on-a-stick inter-VLAN routing, DHCP services, NAT overload, and WAN connectivity.

PlannedProfessional journey and hands-on technical roles
Maintain, monitor, and troubleshoot network infrastructure, supporting system reliability and minimizing downtime. Monitor network performance using MikroTik WinBox and The Dude, proactively identifying and resolving connectivity issues. Provide technical support for internal users and assist with system administration tasks.
Completed a one-year industrial training program, assisting field engineers with network equipment installation, configuration, and maintenance at client sites. Gained hands-on experience with The Dude monitoring tool, VNC remote access, and basic router configuration. Participated in troubleshooting network issues, cable management, and documentation of IT procedures.
Real troubleshooting scenarios demonstrating problem-solving methodology
Client reported complete internet outage across the office network. Physical connectivity was confirmed, but users were unable to access online services or internal resources.
Restored required VLAN configurations through WinBox, verified DHCP relay functionality, and confirmed successful internet connectivity across the client environment.
Client reported slow internet performance. The objective was to determine whether the issue was caused by wireless connectivity, network configuration, or bandwidth utilization.
Testing confirmed that the wireless link was operating normally. Investigation suggested that the customer was reaching their subscribed bandwidth capacity. The recommended solution was bandwidth upgrade rather than infrastructure repair.
Learned the importance of structured troubleshooting. A single speed test does not always represent complete network performance. Testing with different servers provides better visibility into routing, latency, and bandwidth behaviour.
Ready to discuss opportunities or collaborate on projects
I am always interested in new opportunities and collaborations.
