Optimize cache behavior, TTLs, compression, redirects, origin connectivity, and edge-delivery configurations.
Analyze cache hit/miss behavior and identify opportunities to increase edge offload.
Work with application teams to improve application delivery and reduce unnecessary origin traffic.
Monitor Akamai platform and application performance and proactively address performance degradation.

Monitoring, Troubleshooting & Production Support

Provide advanced troubleshooting for complex Akamai and application-delivery issues.
Analyze HTTP response codes, headers, logs, DNS responses, TLS handshakes, caching behavior, and network traces.
Troubleshoot issues such as 403/404/5xx errors, origin failures, cache inconsistencies, certificate problems, DNS issues, WAF blocks, and application-performance degradation.
Participate in major incident and problem-management activities.
Perform root-cause analysis and develop permanent corrective actions.
Coordinate with Akamai support and engineering teams for complex product or platform issues.
Participate in production support and on-call activities where required.

Security, Governance & Compliance

Ensure Akamai configurations comply with enterprise cybersecurity policies and architecture standards.
Maintain appropriate security baselines for WAF, TLS, DNS, APIs, and edge configurations.
Support vulnerability remediation and security-audit activities.
Maintain configuration documentation, operational procedures, runbooks, and troubleshooting guides.
Support change-management and compliance requirements for regulated enterprise environments.

Technical Leadership

Serve as a subject-matter expert for Akamai CDN and Edge Security technologies.
Provide technical guidance to application, infrastructure, cloud, DevOps, and security teams.
Lead technical reviews for complex application onboarding and Akamai architecture decisions.
Mentor junior and mid-level Akamai engineers.
Develop engineering standards, reference configurations, operational procedures, and best practices.
Drive continuous improvement and automation across Akamai engineering and operations.

Required Technical Skills

7+ years of experience in CDN, network engineering, web infrastructure, cybersecurity, or related technologies, with strong hands-on Akamai experience.
Strong experience with Akamai CDN and Property Manager.
Hands-on experience with Akamai App & API Protector / WAF.
Experience with Akamai security and traffic-management capabilities.
Strong understanding of DNS, HTTP/HTTPS, TCP/IP, TLS/SSL, certificates, proxies, load balancers, and firewalls.
Experience troubleshooting internet-facing web applications and APIs.
Strong understanding of caching, origin architecture, content delivery, and application acceleration.
Experience with Akamai APIs and CLI tools.
Working knowledge of Git and configuration/version-management practices.
