Peregrine Technologies, backed by leading Silicon Valley investors, is seeking a Staff Software Engineer, Networking to join its Platform team. The company builds an AI-enabled platform that transforms siloed data into operational intelligence for public safety organizations, government agencies, and enterprises across 30+ states and two countries.
In this role, you will design and build software-defined networking capabilities that enable secure, reliable, and scalable communication across Peregrine's infrastructure. You'll work across cloud and Kubernetes networking, service-to-service communication, traffic management, routing, and observability—architecting control planes, services, and automation that make complex networking capabilities reliable and easy to operate at scale.
Key responsibilities include:
- Design and build systems that provision, manage, and scale network connectivity across customer, cloud, and Kubernetes environments
- Build platform capabilities for service communication, routing, traffic management, segmentation, and observability
- Extend and improve APIs and services that make networking capabilities reliable and self-service
- Design systems for safe configuration, policy enforcement, traffic rollout, and failure recovery
- 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 should have 9+ years of experience in software, infrastructure, or network engineering roles, with a focus on building and operating systems at scale. Strong programming skills in Python, Go, or similar languages are required, along with deep understanding of networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, routing, DNS, load balancing, NAT, VPNs). Experience with cloud and Kubernetes networking, distributed systems, and infrastructure (control planes, traffic management, gateways/proxies) is essential. You must be based in or around the SF or NYC offices and excited to work in-office.
