has a somewhat complex firewall environment with 2 pairs of enterprise firewalls and a handful of smaller departmental ones. We are seeking someone for at least several months to assist us with firewall rule implementation. Rules are implemented 2 mornings per week, but there is considerable time spent preparing for those changes, and potentially troubleshooting them afterward.
We are more interested in someone who's worked in a complex enterprise environment than in the specific firewall vendor we happen to use. We believe it's easier to move from one firewall brand to another than to move from a simple environment to a complex one.
Should the day-to-day firewall management work take less than full-time, we have firewall management platforms that aren't fully implemented that we'd like the contractor to work on
