About The Position

The Network Visibility and Telemetry team is responsible for designing, building, and operating a set of systems and services which deliver metrics, telemetry and alerting for data center infrastructure (network, storage, etc). We are part of the Infrastructure Strategy Datacenter Operations organization, which is a dynamic, global team delivering and supporting technology infrastructure to meet the substantial growth needs of the business. In this role, you will leverage your experience in building and deploying large-scale systems to automate systems services across all types of infrastructure (storage, network, server), enable the collection of infrastructure telemetry, make the infrastructure visible and accessible, and ensure that alerts are generated where action is needed. Build and ship high-quality, production-grade software using modern engineering practices, with AI as a core part of your development workflow by pushing the boundaries of AI development tools to deliver secure, optimized, and high-quality code. Design and orchestrate complex systems where AI agents integrate seamlessly into human workflows, driving efficiency and innovation at scale. Critically evaluate code (Human or AI-generated) for correctness, quality, security, and performance Contribute to building and maintaining the shared system context, an explicit repository of system designs, constraints, and standards that enables AI to operate accurately and reliably. This position entails participation in an on-call rotation.
