Who you are:

To succeed in this role of Network Engineer, you need to be able to take initiative and manage your own time.

You should be comfortable seeking out the necessary information rather than expecting all details to be provided at the project's onset. Collaboration with others is crucial to your success.

Additionally, meticulous attention to detail is essential. You should be willing to research and familiarize yourself with technologies and protocols when your knowledge is limited.

You are known for your willingness to help others, making you approachable and reliable. You take pride in completing tasks, including documentation, to the highest standard, ensuring nothing is left unfinished.
