Part-time developing Network Programmability and Automation applications and tools to improve network operations and add value. The other part-time ensuring the highest levels of performance of the Carrier Grade IP/MPLS network and Mobile Core data center network to guarantee the best quality for the services.Accomplishments - Reduced Acceptance Test Procedure (ATP) time by 98% and human error risks for Huawei routers deployments by developing a Python/Flask application that runs health checks against edges, backbones and access equipment to confirm their production readiness.- Mitigating multiple sites transport congestions by designing and implementing MPLS Traffic Engineering tunnels to load balance the traffic.Developed an Ansible playbook to backup legacy routers and switches configurations programmatically to a RedHat server.- Developed a self service web tool application for the NOC and Field Engineers to verify network devices AAA configurations on Cisco ISE using Python/Flask and REST API calls.- Developed a Python script to run configuration changes and verifications against a group of devices via SecureCRT, drastically reducing the delivery time. - Reduced mobile network CGNAT bandwidth utilization by 30% by designing and implementing BGP communities and traffic engineering to bypass Google Global Cache Traffic.- Maintain the network devices software up to date by planning and leading upgrades of 20+ Huawei NE40E X8/X16 Routers and 100+ Cisco ASR 903 Routers.- Solved voice degradation on mobile 2G/3G/LTE services during microwaves links congestion caused by not planned fiber cuts. Evaluated and modified the network QoS policies to meet the needed bandwidth requirements giving priority to voice over data. Show less
