// Network & Infrastructure Engineering
Twenty years of enterprise and classified DoD network engineering. From architecture decisions to hands-on deployment — the kind of experience that only comes from making things work when failure isn't an option.
01 — What We Do
// 001
End-to-end network design for enterprise and classified environments. MPLS, BGP, EIGRP, OSPF, SDN. Built to survive contact with reality.
// 002
RMF, STIG, ATO/IATO support. DoD 8570 IAM Level III. Palo Alto and Checkpoint firewall architecture. Zero Trust design and implementation.
// 003
Legacy environment assessment and modernization roadmaps. Virtual data center design with VMware vSphere/NSX. Lifecycle planning that accounts for reality.
// 004
Ansible-driven configuration management, Python tooling, custom monitoring platforms aggregating NetFlow, Syslog, and SNMP. Less toil, fewer outages.
// 005
Embedded technical leadership for programs that need someone who can brief GS-15s in the morning and fix a routing issue in the afternoon.
// 006
Network discovery and as-built documentation for environments where "it works but nobody knows why." Turning institutional knowledge debt into a real baseline.
02 — About
Blame The LLC is the consulting practice of Chris Anderson — a network engineer with twenty years of experience across enterprise IT and classified DoD environments, from mid-size commercial operations to multi-domain CONUS/OCONUS programs supporting warfighter missions.
The work has ranged from designing a company's first mature network from scratch, to serving as part of a team of lead engineers managing infrastructure across multiple domains and a vast geographic footprint. The common thread: solving hard infrastructure problems and making sure the people responsible for them actually understand what they have.
No fluff. No hand-waving. Just someone who has been in the room when things broke and knows how to make sure they don't break again.
