Sr Software Engineer, - Network Services

New Today

THE JOB

In this role, you’ll design and build automation systems and tools that reduce manual network operations, streamline workflows, and improve the reliability of our global infrastructure.

Your work will span a broad range of automation efforts—including (but not limited to) provisioning network hardware, implementing new configurations, enforcing access policies across our data centers and AWS environments, and developing observability and monitoring systems.

You’ll collaborate closely with the Core Networking team, who design and architect the network, and with infrastructure software engineering teams, who provide the APIs and services your tools will integrate with. Together, you’ll deliver scalable, resilient automation aligned with architectural and security standards.

This is a high-impact opportunity to apply software engineering best practices to networking challenges. We embrace an “automate everything” mindset—giving you space to innovate beyond traditional boundaries and build systems that are scalable, reliable, and built to last.
