What you need

  • 5+ years of hands-on experience implementing and operating enterprise-scale networks in production
  • Deep, practical knowledge of BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, EVPN VXLAN, and TCP/IP
  • Experience configuring network security controls (firewalls, IDS/IPS, ACLs) without dependence on proprietary features
  • Able to script confidently in Python, Go, Rust, or equivalent to automate monitoring and configuration workflows
  • Solid Linux and DevOps fundamentals: comfortable at the CLI, with Terraform, and with Git-based workflows
  • Hardware-agnostic mindset — you've worked across multiple vendors and know that the protocol stack is what matters

Nice to have

  • Experience building network telemetry pipelines using gNMIc, sFlow, BMP, or similar, integrated with Prometheus and Grafana
  • Kubernetes experience, specifically leveraging or adapting controllers
  • Contributions to open-source networking tools or internal automation frameworks
  • Involvement in NOG communities or conference speaking

What you get

  • Stock Options: opportunity to be owners of the company
  • Technology: right hardware and software to do your best work
  • Learning & Development: investment in your growth with real challenges and ownership
  • Employee Benefits: strong health coverage, solid retirement options, generous leave, and wellness support
  • Office First: expectation to spend most of your time in the office with some flexibility
  • Food: lunch and snacks provided in the office

Worth weighing

  • Compensation range for Paris is specified, but other locations will discuss compensation during the interview process
  • The role requires a strong focus on automation and scripting, which may not suit all candidates
  • The company has an office-first policy, which may limit remote work flexibility
