About Prashant Sawant

I’m a Network Engineer with 4.6 years of hands-on experience in global NOC environments, specializing in SD-WAN (Cisco Viptela, Fortinet, Aruba), routing and switching (BGP, OSPF, EIGRP), VPN technologies, and network performance optimization. Currently working at NTT Global Network, I’ve successfully managed enterprise-grade networks across multiple continents, ensuring 99% uptime while collaborating with global ISPs, vendors, and internal teams. My experience spans Cisco and Juniper devices, MPLS, leased lines, and security technologies including Zscaler and Fortinet firewalls. I hold certifications including CCNA, Aruba SD-WAN (AASP, AASX), and Fortinet NSE 1–3. I\'m actively expanding my cloud and automation skills to stay aligned with next-gen network trends. I’m now seeking senior-level network engineering or network security roles offering growth in design, cloud infrastructure, or leadership — ideally in organizations where I can contribute to large-scale network transformations.
