Key skills for this role
We're hiring a Network Automation Software Lead to build and own the end-to-end zero-touch provisioning (ZTP) and automation platform that stands up and operates our GPU network fabrics and to lead the small team of engineers and SREs building it.
The goal is zero human intervention and full fabric validation : a switch goes from rack-and-stack to production-ready automatically, ensuring every link across the fabric is validated against the plan and spec. Our Network Engineering team is your customer ; you build the platform, they run the network on top of it.
You'll report to a Software Engineering Lead, which means this is real software engineering, not scripts bolted onto a NOC. Source control, testing, CI/CD, code review, release management, and on-call are the baseline. You'll also be responsible for making sure the platform integrates cleanly with the rest of our software and platform tooling.
Our mission is simple: deliver seamless, secure, reliable, and resilient AI compute at scale. We've built a versatile cloud platform that eliminates infrastructure barriers, empowering builders to focus on innovation instead of fighting their stack. Because breakthrough AI should move at the speed of ideas, not infrastructure.

Own the end-to-end ZTP pipeline: bare-metal switch boot → image + base config → registration in source of truth → full intended config → validation → production — with zero human intervention.
Build intent-based config generation off a network source of truth / IPAM, with GitOps-style deployment, pre/post-change validation, and safe rollout and rollback.
Establish network validation and pre-deployment testing (snapshot/digital-twin testing) so changes are caught before they hit production fabrics.
Build streaming telemetry and metrics/logging pipelines (gNMI / OpenConfig) for fabric health.
Instrument what matters for GPU networks: RoCE health (PFC/ECN counters), optics and link errors, BGP / EVPN state, capacity and utilization.
Deliver dashboards and alerting the network team actually uses — signal, not noise.
Gather requirements, build self-service APIs and interfaces, and relentlessly accelerate their deployment velocity.
Partner closely so the tooling reflects how the network is actually operated and turned up.
Hire, mentor, and grow a small team of software engineers and SREs; own roadmap, prioritization, and delivery — while still carrying a meaningful share of the code yourself.
Set technical direction and standards, and ensure clean integration points with the broader platform stack (infra provisioning, CI/CD, secrets, identity, existing observability).
Bring software engineering rigor to network automation: code review, testing, release management, and on-call ownership.
