Security Technology Infrastructure
- Lead installation, configuration, and maintenance of:
- CCTV ecosystem: IP cameras, PTZ, thermal imaging, encoders, NVRs/DVRs, video management servers.
- Access Control Systems (ACS): controllers, readers, biometric devices, turnstiles, and associated software platforms.
- Alarm & Notification Systems: intrusion detection, fire alarm integration, PA systems.
- Network Security Layer: LAN/WAN architecture, MPLS connections, VPN tunnels for remote monitoring.
- Databases & Servers: SQL/Oracle-based backend for security applications, storage servers, redundancy, and backup.
Networking & Systems Administration
- IP configuration, subnet masking, VLAN creation, and bandwidth optimization for security devices.
- Manage server OS, database health, patches, upgrades, and cybersecurity compliance for security applications.
- Perform network diagnostics using IP tracer tools, packet monitoring, and logs analysis.
- Ensure high availability of security systems through redundancy and disaster recovery planning.
Technical Operations & Support
- Lead L1/L2 troubleshooting for all security tech issues; escalate complex cases to OEM/vendor.
- Maintain PPM schedules for all electronic systems and ensure audit-readiness.
