Peter Makau

I am currently employed in a very similar role to the one you are advertising. If you want to employ someone who can oversee the secure design, configuration and administration of modern user-friendly systems and network infrastructure, then I am your man. With my present employer I am involved in security design, configuration and implementation of networks and systems in my organization. My experiences make me feel fully confident in my ability to design, implement and monitor secure systems, Radio communications and network infrastructure.

My key strengths lie in the field of network engineering and systems administration, having done CCNA certifications; Cyber Security, Routing and Switching and Certified Ethical Hacker (CEHv12). I am also proficient in CISCO ASA configuration and other firewall technologies. I also possess knowledge of VPN configuration and IDS/IPS configuration. I also do software and web development with proficiency in the following programming languages: - Python, PHP, C#, C++, JavaScript and frameworks such as React JS and Django.

As a responsible leader I will always represent the views of my IT profession, and with my superb communication skills I will easily communicate with users, programmers, application experts and computer operators in order to exchange information and solve problems.

I would very much appreciate an opportunity to meet up with you in person to discuss my application in more detail. In the meantime i would like to thank you for your time and expectantly wait to hear a positive response from you.
