  • Visitor management systems and integration to access control
  • Integration platforms and APIs for physical security systems
  • Proven track record of large-scale system deployments and migrations
  • Strong understanding of system architecture, APIs, and integration methodologies
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to work independently in a customer environment
  • Outstanding communication skills with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Willingness to work on-site full-time at AT&T headquarters in Dallas, TX and travel to job locations as necessary

Preferred

  • Experience with security operations center (SOC/GSOC) workflows and incident management
