What you'll Do Design, implement, and manage Palo Alto Networks security solutions (Prisma Access, Next Generation FWs, Strata Cloud, GlobalProtect, Cortex XDR) to protect hybrid and cloud environments. Develop and enforce network segmentation policies, implementing role-based access control (RBAC) and least privilege across on-prem and cloud infrastructure. Configure and optimize GlobalProtect for secure, scalable remote access, ensuring compliance with security best practices and user accessibility requirements. Leverage Cortex XDR for advanced threat detection, incident response, and endpoint protection across the organization's IT assets. Implement security controls in public cloud environments (AWS, Azure, OCI), including network security groups, identity and access management (IAM), encryption, and multi-factor authentication (MFA). Ensure compliance with security frameworks (e.g., NIST, CIS, ISO 27001) through the implementation of appropriate cloud security policies and procedures. Collaborate with cloud architects and DevOps teams to integrate security controls into cloud-native applications and services, ensuring secure CI/CD pipelines. Monitor and manage security incidents and vulnerabilities within both on-prem and cloud environments, using Palo Alto's suite of tools and cloud-native monitoring services. Perform security risk assessments and audits of cloud and network infrastructures, providing recommendations for continuous improvement. Document security architectures, policies, and procedures, ensuring they align with industry best practices and regulatory requirements. Mentor and guide junior security engineers in Palo Alto Networks and cloud security technologies. Knowledge of variety of routing protocols Utilizes Subject Matter Expert knowledge in leading daily management and administration of network security controls such as firewalls, web application firewalls, DNS, routers, switches, VPN appliances, and load balancers Utilizes an advanced and broad range of skills to identify and troubleshoot different technical platforms including firewalls, servers, networks, Internet and Cloud Creates and maintains knowledge base to aid troubleshooting used by support teams Evaluates existing processes and policies and recommends enhancements to protect data and information from unauthorized access Build and assist with daily requests of changes to firewall policies
