At your core, you're a strong software engineer with cloud experience who enjoys writing production-grade code and solving complex problems. You'll primarily work as a developer on platform services in the networking space, helping drive improvements in reliability, scalability, security, and developer experience.


This is a hands-on software engineering role where you'll take ownership of meaningful components of the platform. Over time, you'll contribute to improving system performance, reducing operational overhead, and shaping engineering best practices across the team.

+ Contribute to the development and evolution of core cloud platform capabilities across AWS and GCP

+ Reduce operational overhead by increasing self-service capabilities and standardizing platform processes

+ Improve developer and operator experience by minimizing manual effort and streamlining workflows

+ Partner with Product, Engineering, Security, and Operations teams to deliver high-impact, scalable, and secure solutions


Who You Are:


+ A strong software engineer at your core who enjoys writing code and solving complex problems

+ Comfortable working as a developer across cloud platforms and, ideally, within the networking domain

+ Thrive in fast-paced, evolving environments and bring a strong sense of ownership and accountability

+ Naturally curious and forward-thinking, with an interest in using AI-assisted tools to accelerate platform engineering


What You've Accomplished:


_Required Qualifications:_


+ 5 to 8+ years of professional software engineering experience

+ Strong programming skills in Go (Golang) preferred; Python or Java also strongly considered

+ Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (AWS and/or GCP)

+ Experience with Kubernetes and containerized environments (Docker)

+ Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Helm, CloudFormation, or similar)

+ Proven ability to debug and operate distributed systems using logs, metrics, and tracing


_Preferred Qualifications (Nice to Have):_


+ Experience developing or working with networking components (virtual networks, VPNs, firewalls, load balancers, DNS)

+ Familiarity with service mesh technologies (Istio or equivalent)

+ Understanding of core networking concepts including TCP/IP, DNS, VPN, VLANs, routing, and switching

+ Experience building or operating cloud infrastructure or platform services at scale

+ Familiarity with SD-WAN technologies and modern enterprise networking architectures

+ Familiarity with observability and monitoring ecosystems

+ Experience improving automation and developer workflows in cloud environments

+ Exposure to multi-region, high-availability, and hybrid networking design patterns

+ Cloud, networking, or Kubernetes certifications (AWS, GCP, CKAD, CCNA, etc.)
