  • Develop iRules, automation scripts (Python, JSON, Ansible, Terraform, or AppViewX) to optimize performance and security.
  • Integrate F5 with cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, or Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) for hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
  • Implement SSL/TLS offloading, traffic steering, WAF policies, and Zero Trust Security principles using F5 solutions.
  • Troubleshoot network, application, and security issues related to F5 load balancers.
  • Collaborate with network, security, and DevOps teams to align F5 deployments with business and security requirements.
  • Stay up to date with F5 product updates, vulnerabilities, and best practices to maintain a secure and efficient infrastructure.

  • Hands-on experience with F5 BIG-IP LTM, GTM (DNS), APM, ASM, AFM, and iRules scripting.
  • Experience with cloud-based F5 implementations (AWS, Azure, OCI).
  • Strong knowledge of network protocols (TCP/IP, HTTP/HTTPS, SSL/TLS, DNS, BGP, OSPF).
  • Familiarity with automation tools (Python, Ansible, Terraform, AppViewX).
  • Experience in designing high-availability and disaster recovery solutions.
  • Understanding of Zero Trust, SASE, and WAF security models.
