My work has focused on designing, building, and operating complex communications infrastructures across enterprise, remote, and cooperative environments. I have assembled and delivered data and voice communications systems using satellite, RF, fiber, coaxial routing, switching, and cloud technologies. I have also established managed network and cloud services, supported large-scale infrastructure in NOC and SOC environments, and helped organizations improve reliability, security, and performance. My expertise spans routing and switching, network security, cloud platforms, virtualization, monitoring, compliance, and unified communications. I have worked extensively with Cisco, Juniper, Palo Alto, Fortinet, Meraki, AWS, Azure, VMware, and multiple monitoring and ticketing systems. I have led teams and served as a primary technical point of contact in roles involving network engineering, security architecture, managed services, and solution architecture. I am comfortable translating business needs into technical models and delivering solutions that support growth, resilience, and operational efficiency. My career includes work in higher education, financial services, transportation, telecommunications, cloud operations, and physical security systems. In these environments, I have handled architecture, implementation, troubleshooting, incident response, automation, and service management responsibilities. I also bring experience with compliance and governance frameworks such as NIST, HIPAA, PCI DSS, ISO 27002, COBIT, and ITIL. I have used this knowledge to strengthen security posture, improve controls, and support audit readiness across complex enterprise environments. ## Professional area ### [Developer & Engineer](https://jobicy.com/resume-category/dev.md)[Management & Operations](https://jobicy.com/resume-category/management.md)[Sales](https://jobicy.com/resume-category/sales.md) ## Skills ### [Automation](https://jobicy.com/resume-skill/automation.md)[AWS](https://jobicy.com/resume-skill/aws.md)[Azure](https://jobicy.com/resume-skill/azure.md)[Change Management](https://jobicy.com/resume-skill/change-management.md)[Compliance](https://jobicy.com/resume-skill/compliance.md)[Nessus](https://jobicy.com/resume-skill/nessus.md)[Network Engineering](https://jobicy.com/resume-skill/network-engineering.md)[Python](https://jobicy.com/resume-skill/python.md)[Solution Architecture](https://jobicy.com/resume-skill/solution-architecture.md)[VMware](https://jobicy.com/resume-skill/vmware.md) ## Education 2017 - Present Master of Science in IT, Telecommunications Management @ University of Maryland University College (UMUC) 1997 - 2003 Bachelor of Science in Computer Science / Electronics and Communications Engineering @ University of Baguio (UB) ## Experience Mar 2024 - Present Sr. Network Engineer | Solution Architect | Owner, Exec @ GrisHelpNtech Managed field deployments for network, security, and telecommunications systems; handled physical security system installation and repair dispatches; translated business needs into technical models; designed and built information systems infrastructure; delivered security system solutions and technical consultancy; reviewed business modeling and growth analysis.
