Rohan Marshall Lead Software Engineer, Cloud Network (305) 555-6412 rohan.marshall@example.com linkedin.com/example/rohanmarshall Miami, FL 33130 STRENGTHS Incident leadership During a cross environment outage, traced transaction paths calmly and gave teams a shared recovery plan. Architecture judgment Design reviews balanced reliability, security, simplicity, and cost, helping partners reach decisions with confidence. Automation discipline Reusable Python and Go modules brought testing and rollback into everyday network delivery, not after failures. Mentoring Senior engineers sought guidance on BGP faults and system design, then carried clearer practices into delivery. Audit readiness PCI DSS evidence grew from operating controls, telemetry, and documentation that auditors and engineers could follow.

Leads architecture for multi account and multi region platforms supporting payment and banking workloads, with deep practice in BGP, IP address management, Transit Gateway, Direct Connect, PrivateLink, Route 53, firewalls, load balancing, segmentation, and PCI DSS controls. Guides technical direction through design authority, incident command, mentoring, hiring, and cross team influence. Builds reusable Python and Go automation with testing, code review, observability, safe rollout, and rollback practices. Connects transaction paths across product, network, and data layers, then turns findings into practical reliability, security, efficiency, and cost improvements. Brings clear judgment to technical debt, buy versus build decisions, and long range platform strategy. EXPERIENCE Lead Cloud Network Engineer Blue Harbor Payments January 2023 - Present Miami, FL Leads AWS and hybrid connectivity architecture for payment platforms, guiding design authority, incident response, automation standards, audit controls, mentoring, and cross team delivery. Set AWS connectivity architecture with Transit Gateway, Direct Connect, PrivateLink, Route 53, NAT, and firewalls. Guided design reviews that balanced routing, segmentation, resilience, maintainability, and cost for payment services. Built reusable Python and Go modules with tests, review gates, rollback paths, and clearer ownership. Commanded incidents by tracing transactions across product, network, and data layers for faster root cause isolation. Defined network SLAs, telemetry, route health checks, and PCI DSS evidence for audit readiness. Mentored senior engineers through BGP troubleshooting, hiring panels, design reviews, and platform decisions. Senior Network Platform Engineer Crescent Commerce Systems March 2020 - December 2022 Atlanta, GA Owned multi region AWS foundations and connectivity simplification, leading platform consolidation, safe changes, incident analysis, segmentation, product evaluation, and audit preparation. Designed multi region AWS foundations with Transit Gateway, VPC routing, Direct Connect, PrivateLink, and Route 53. Consolidated duplicated connectivity into maintained modules and paved roads for private service access. Introduced staged route and firewall changes with health monitoring and fast rollback for safer releases. Led root cause analysis for BGP and load balancer failures across cloud and data center boundaries. Mapped segmentation and firewall controls to PCI DSS requirements, producing audit ready operating evidence. Compared managed networking products with internal builds using reliability, scalability, operating effort, and cost. Network Automation Engineer Meridian Banking Technologies June 2017 - February 2020 Charlotte, NC Automated network operations across banking data centers and AWS, improving change validation, fault isolation, telemetry, documentation, and engineer enablement. Automated router, switch, firewall, and IP address workflows with Python and testable tooling. Validated BGP neighbors, route propagation, address allocation, and firewall policy before planned changes. Diagnosed routing asymmetry, DNS, NAT, and capacity issues across data center and AWS connections. Created dashboards and alerts for circuit health, routing changes, and device availability. Documented standard network patterns and troubleshooting procedures for application and operations teams. Guided junior engineers through change preparation and reproducible fault isolation during service work. Network Engineer Southeastern Digital Services July 2015 - May 2017 Raleigh, NC Operated routing, switching, firewall, and load balancing platforms across two data centers, supporting resilient deployments, maintenance, troubleshooting, and automation. Operated routing, switching, firewall, and load balancing infrastructure across two production data centers. Configured BGP and dynamic routing, then validated convergence during scheduled maintenance windows. Managed IP address allocations and network records supporting application deployments and capacity planning. Diagnosed packet loss, asymmetric routing, and firewall policy issues with captures and device telemetry. Prepared reviewed changes with implementation, validation, rollback steps, and clear stakeholder communication. Built scripts for configuration checks and recurring operational reports, reducing manual review effort. PROJECTS Multi Region Connectivity Simplification 2022 Replaced fragmented cloud connectivity patterns with reusable modules, clearer ownership, staged rollout controls, and practical operating guidance for platform teams. Payment Network Observability 2024 Connected transaction tracing, route health, circuit telemetry, and service indicators so engineers could isolate failures faster and support audit evidence. Safe Infrastructure Change Framework 2025 Established testing, review gates, feature controlled rollout, monitoring, and rollback practices for network automation and infrastructure updates. LEADERSHIP & AWARDS Recognized by platform leadership for dependable incident command during a cross environment routing outage. Received engineering recognition for reusable network modules that simplified cloud connectivity delivery. Selected as a trusted mentor for senior engineer design reviews and BGP troubleshooting sessions.
