TL;DR · Senior Infrastructure Engineer, Connectivity

Senior Infrastructure Engineer - Connectivity joins the Contract Manufacturing infrastructure team to redesign and manage connectivity strategies for manufacturing sites. This hands-on architecture role involves designing, deploying, and troubleshooting IT rooms, which function as mini datacenters, while ensuring clear demarcations between production floors and corporate networks. The position focuses on building scalable, highly available network architectures that support general compute workloads and large language models by connecting factories to the cloud. Key responsibilities include managing lifecycle designs for faster networks, enforcing security standards for backbone components, and developing reference architectures using Mellanox gear and GPUs. Required expertise includes TCP/UDP, IPv4/IPv6, BGP, VPN, L2 switching, EVPN, VxLAN, Segment Routing, MPLS, IS-IS, and DWDM. Candidates must possess skills in RoCE, traditional IP, and automation via Python, Ruby, or Go to manage SDN/NFV/NFVI infrastructure for manufacturing and OT networks.

What you'll do

  • Lead the architecture, design, and deployment of global-scale factory networks connecting to cloud environments.
  • Design network topologies for manufacturing sites to support large language models and general compute workloads.
  • Define clear demarcations between IT rooms, production floors, and NPI areas within manufacturing facilities.
  • Manage lifecycle management and design topologies for high-speed networks in revenue-generating manufacturing sites.
  • Enforce security, compliance, and reliability standards for all backbone and fabric components supporting sensitive workloads.
  • Develop "NVIDIA on NVIDIA" reference architectures using Mellanox networking gear and GPUs.
  • Troubleshoot complex network issues including DNS, DHCP, and full connectivity stack infrastructures at the factory level.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Mathematics, Statistics, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
  • 12+ years of experience building, managing, and supporting large-scale hybrid networks.
  • Experience developing automation pipelines using Python, Ruby, Go, or other infrastructure automation languages.
  • Expertise in networking technologies including TCP/UDP, IPv4/IPv6, BGP/MP-BGP, VPN, L2 switching, EVPN, VxLAN, Segment Routing, MPLS, IS-IS, and DWDM.
  • Experience automating SDN/NFV/NFVI infrastructure.
  • Knowledge of Manufacturing and OT networks and infrastructure (preferred).
  • Experience with Mellanox networking gear (preferred).
  • Experience with Test Engineering topologies (preferred).
