TL;DR

As Lead Engineer on the Salesforce Network Software team, you will design and implement distributed and highly available software-defined networking infrastructure for one of the largest enterprise applications built on public clouds. Your daily responsibilities include developing mission-critical networking services that ensure resilience to regional failures and support seamless disaster recovery across AWS, Azure, and GCP. You will lead the development of scalable dual-stack IPAM systems, optimize cloud connectivity by reducing reliance on intermediaries, and drive IPv6 adoption for future growth. Key skills required are expertise in GoLang or Python, deep knowledge of OSI layers 3 to 7 (BGP, TCP/UDP, TLS), and experience with distributed systems at scale. This role demands a massive-scale mindset, proficiency in self-healing and API-first design, and ownership of mission-critical services with a focus on telemetry and data-driven reliability.
