TL;DR · Senior Core Infrastructure Engineer

Senior Core Infrastructure Engineer joins the Virtual Networking Control Plane team to manage networking resources within a multi-tenant cloud environment. This role focuses on delivering Network-as-a-Service by building and maintaining infrastructure that handles planning, provisioning, lifecycle management, and security for virtual networks. The engineer will design and implement scalable distributed systems, develop fault-tolerant components with redundancy and automatic failover, and create telemetry systems to monitor component health. Day-to-day responsibilities include developing automation scripts using Infrastructure as Code, performing operational troubleshooting, and ensuring data integrity through replication techniques. The role requires proficiency in Java, Terraform, and Virtual Networking. The work addresses the technical challenge of providing a software-defined network that offers both the flexibility of virtual networking and the manageability of controlled infrastructure for internal and external customers utilizing cloud APIs.

What you'll do

  • Develop and optimize distributed systems components that support horizontal and vertical scaling using state management tools.
  • Build fault-tolerant infrastructure by implementing redundancy, replication, automatic failover, and circuit breakers.
  • Create custom dashboards, telemetry systems, and alerting mechanisms to monitor component health and proactively detect failures.
  • Design and execute test scenarios, including fault-injection and brown-outs, to ensure system correctness and data integrity.
  • Diagnose and resolve complex system issues while developing automation scripts and tools for operational troubleshooting.
  • Implement advanced security measures such as encryption and access controls to protect multi-tenant cloud environments.
  • Maintain Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and automation scripts to manage cloud infrastructure and streamline change management.

What we're looking for

  • Applicants must be able to read, write, and speak English.
  • Candidates must have 3 to 5+ years of experience.
  • Experience with distributed systems is required.
  • Proficiency in Java programming is required.
  • Experience with Terraform for Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is required.
