AI enablement
Deploy and administer enterprise AI platforms (Gemini Enterprise, Claude, and related tools), including configuration, integrations, and usage monitoring
Build AI-powered automations that reduce manual work across IT and business teams
Design and enforce AI usage controls, including data protection, DLP, audit logging, and access policies

Team and operations
Build integrations and automation using scripts and APIs to eliminate manual toil

Hands-on experience managing Meraki or comparable enterprise network infrastructure
Experience working with ISPs and carriers, including circuit management and outage escalation
Hands-on experience with enterprise AI or LLM platforms (Gemini, Claude or similar), including administration or integration work
Proficiency in a scripting or programming language (Python, Bash, JavaScript) and experience building against REST APIs
Understanding of data security principles as they apply to AI usage (data classification, DLP, least privilege)
Strong critical thinking and structured problem-solving skills
Clear written and verbal communication, including the ability to document designs and teach others
Ability to work independently and collaboratively across teams
Bonus points if you have
Cisco Meraki certification (CMNA) or CCNA/Network+
Experience with SD-WAN design and multi-site network management
Experience with Cloudflare Zero Trust, DLP, or CASB tooling
