TL;DR · SDE II, Network Observability

JOB TITLE: SDE II - Network Observability, Leo Networking Software The SDE II - Network Observability, Leo Networking Software joins the Leo Network Observability, Visibility & Analytics team to build systems providing end-to-end insight into a global satellite telecom network. You will design and operate high-scale distributed systems that transform telemetry, network events, traces, and operational signals into actionable visibility across satellites, customer terminals, gateways, and terrestrial infrastructure. Daily responsibilities include building real-time data pipelines, developing algorithms for failure detection and localization, and creating APIs, dashboards, and analytical tools. You will utilize C#, C++, Java, or Perl to solve complex networking problems involving multi-hop paths and intermittent connectivity. This role focuses on establishing observability foundations for a highly distributed network where failures can span space and ground infrastructure, requiring expertise in distributed systems and large-scale analytics.

What you'll do

  • Design and develop scalable network observability, telemetry, and analytics systems for space and terrestrial infrastructure.
  • Build real-time pipelines to ingest and correlate high-volume network telemetry, events, traces, and health signals.
  • Develop algorithms for end-to-end network visibility, including failure detection, localization, and impact analysis.
  • Design distributed systems to process large volumes of telemetry with high availability and low latency.
  • Develop APIs, dashboards, and analytical tools to expose network health and operational insights to internal customers.
  • Establish metrics, service-level indicators, and automated detection mechanisms for critical network components.
  • Design resilient systems capable of handling intermittent connectivity, partial failures, and delayed telemetry.
  • Participate in the full software development lifecycle including architecture, testing, deployment, and on-call support.

What we're looking for

  • Must be a U.S. citizen, national, permanent resident, or lawfully admitted as a refugee or granted asylum.
  • Bachelor's degree or foreign equivalent in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field.
  • 3+ years of non-internship professional software development experience.
  • 2+ years of non-internship design or architecture experience for new and existing systems.
  • 1+ years of software development engineer or related occupational experience.
  • 1+ years of experience developing large-scale, multi-tiered, multi-threaded, embedded, or distributed software using C#, C++, Java, or Perl.
  • 1+ years of Object Oriented Design experience.
  • Export Control Requirement: Due to applicable export control laws and regulations, candidates.
