Job Description
About the Role
You will design and develop Python-driven platforms that power automation, observability, and intelligent network operations.
What You’ll Build
- Architect robust automation frameworks that eliminate manual workflows.
- Build internal tools and services that interface with routers, firewalls, APIs, telemetry systems, and infrastructure platforms.
- Develop high-impact dashboards that transform raw data into operational clarity.
- Create scalable Python services that ingest, process, and analyze network and system data in real time.
- Engineer validation, compliance, and self-healing mechanisms into automation pipelines.
This is engineering with consequence — your work directly improves reliability, speed, and visibility across critical systems.
The Type of Engineer We’re Looking For
You
- Write elegant, production-grade Python with strong architecture and testing discipline.
- Think in systems, not scripts.
- Understand concurrency, performance optimization, and scalability.
- Have built APIs, automation engines, data processors, or distributed services.
- Understand TCP/IP, DNS, routing, firewalls, and load behavior well enough to engineer around them.
- Have built dashboards or telemetry-driven tools that teams actually depend on.
You’ve Likely
- Automated network validations or infrastructure workflows.
- Built data pipelines for logs, metrics, or traffic flow.
- Diagnosed real-world latency or connectivity issues.
- Designed tools that engineers use every day.
Why This Role Is Different
This isn’t maintenance engineering. This is about building the internal systems that multiply the effectiveness of entire teams.
You Will
- Turn operational complexity into automated precision.
- Replace tribal knowledge with engineered platforms.
- Convert raw telemetry into decision-grade insight.
- Design systems that scale as infrastructure scales.
The output isn’t tickets closed. The output is leverage, reliability, and intelligent automation.
