- Own and improve the reliability, scalability, and observability of networking and traffic management systems
- Lead debugging of complex connectivity and traffic issues across application, Kubernetes, cloud, and network boundaries
- Drive architectural direction and networking standards while collaborating across Infrastructure, Security, and product engineering teams
You bring 9+ years of experience in software, infrastructure, or network engineering roles, with a focus on building and operating systems at scale. You have strong programming skills (Python, Go, or similar) and deep understanding of networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, routing, DNS, load balancing, NAT, VPNs). Experience with cloud and Kubernetes networking, distributed systems, and infrastructure automation is essential. You excel at debugging across application, system, and network boundaries and can drive technical direction across teams. You are based in or around SF or NYC and excited to work in-office.
