Job details

Staff Network Engineer

We are hiring a Staff Network Engineer to help build and operate the backbone of a carrier-grade, high-performance AI infrastructure. As a key technical contributor, you will design, deploy, and support large-scale network systems that connect our GPU clusters, high-throughput storage, and compute environments across geographically distributed data centers.

You will work alongside Principal Engineers and cross-functional teams to deliver automation-driven, low-latency networking designed for the scale and intensity of AI workloads and HPC environments.

Key Responsibilities

  • Implement and maintain high-throughput, low-latency networks supporting AI Factory workloads and distributed training infrastructure.

  • Work hands-on to deploy, configure, and troubleshoot routing, switching, optics, and interconnect systems across data centers.

  • Operate and optimize layer 2/3 network services: BGP, EVPN/VXLAN, OSPF, MPLS, QoS, and ACLs.

  • Work with Infiniband Networking Systems and Nvidia Fabric Manager (UFM)

  • Develop and maintain network automation (e.g., Ansible, Python, Terraform) for provisioning, compliance, and operational workflows.

  • Monitor network health and performance using telemetry tools and help scale observability platforms.

  • Participate in the incident response rotation and perform root cause analysis on service-impacting events.

  • Maintain configuration standards, documentation, and change management in line with infrastructure governance processes.

  • Collaborate with the Principal Network Engineer on architectural decisions and vendor evaluations.

Qualifications

Required:

  • 5–8+ years of hands-on experience in large-scale network engineering, data center networks, or service provider infrastructure

  • Strong knowledge of IP networking, BGP, OSPF, EVPN/VXLAN, and L2/L3 design principles

  • Experience configuring and operating Arista, Juniper, or Cisco platforms in production environments

  • Proficiency in scripting or automation (e.g., Python, Bash, Ansible)

  • Solid troubleshooting skills and experience with real-time diagnostics and packet analysis

  • Familiarity with monitoring and telemetry tools (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, sFlow, InfluxDB)

Preferred:

  • Experience in AI, HPC, or GPU-based infrastructure

  • Exposure to carrier-grade architectures, DCI, and optical transport systems

  • Exposure to Nvidia Infiniband Networking systems and components.

  • Understanding of network segmentation, security policies, and zero-trust principles

  • Comfortable working in 24/7 operational environments and on-call rotations
