Job Description

We are seeking a Technology Specialist with deep Cisco Secure Network Analytics (Stealthwatch) expertise to lead the design, scope, and implementation of advanced network telemetry solutions. This is not a standard Cisco admin role — we need a subject matter expert (SME) who can architect, deploy, and integrate Cisco analytics into enterprise environments.

What You’ll Do

  • Design and implement network telemetry solutions leveraging NetFlow/IPFIX and flow collectors.

  • Define and execute the scope of work for Cisco Secure Network Analytics (Stealthwatch) deployments.

  • Build and optimize anomaly detection use cases, including tuning false positives.

  • Develop policies, playbooks, and runbooks to support SOC/NDR operations.

  • Integrate solutions with SOC processes for seamless handoff and incident response.

  • Document designs, implementation steps, and operational processes.

  • Analyze and optimize campus, data center, and segmentation traffic patterns for visibility and security.

What We’re Looking For

  • Hands-on Cisco Secure Network Analytics (Stealthwatch) design and implementation experience.

  • Strong background with NetFlow, IPFIX, and flow collector technologies.

  • Ability to scope, architect, and deploy telemetry solutions from start to finish.

  • Knowledge of anomaly detection, policy creation, and SOC workflows.

  • Experience tuning and reducing false positives in network security analytics.

  • Strong understanding of campus and data center segmentation traffic patterns.

  • Cisco Security Certifications: CCNP Security or Cisco Certified Specialist credentials.
