Cloud Network Engineer Jobs

About The Position

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Network Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
• 5+ years of experience in large-scale enterprise, service provider networking, or SRE roles.
• Professional-level certifications (e.g., CCNP/CCIE, Arista ACE, or Google Professional Cloud Network Engineer).
• Proven experience applying SRE principles to networking infrastructure at scale.
• Deep experience with hybrid cloud connectivity and high-throughput data ingestion for validation/test environments.

Nice To Haves

• Recognized expert in high-performance networking (BGP, EVPN, VXLAN) and deep understanding of data center fabrics.
• Advanced proficiency in Cloud Networking (VPC design, Shared VPCs, Cloud Armor, Cloud Load Balancing).
• Deep experience with SRE and Network Automation tools (Ansible, Terraform, Python, Go) and telemetry stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK).

Responsibilities

• Treat Network as Code (NaC): Lead the transition toward fully automated, software-defined infrastructure where all network changes are version-controlled, peer-reviewed, and deployed via CI/CD pipelines.
• SLO Ownership: Define, monitor, and own critical Service Level Objectives (SLOs) for network performance, focusing on latency, throughput, and availability metrics that impact the AV engineering pipeline.
• Toil Reduction: Apply SRE principles to identify and automate repetitive manual tasks, ensuring the team remains focused on high-value architectural improvements.
• Observability: Build and maintain advanced telemetry and monitoring stacks to provide real-time visibility into the health of hybrid interconnects and on-prem validation pools.
• Design and scale the global backbone connecting on-prem data centers, test tracks, and public cloud providers (primarily GCP Interconnect and potentially Azure ExpressRoute).
• Architect secure, multi-tenant network segments that isolate sensitive AV intellectual property while allowing high-speed access for developer tools and automated build processes.
• Develop "infrastructure-as-code" templates to enable self-service networking for AV developers and ML researchers.
• Optimize the end-to-end data path from hardware ingestion points through the secure cloud network and into production storage/runtimes.
• Ensure the networking requirements for on-prem validation and test worker pools are met, providing the low-latency, high-reliability paths necessary for real-time hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulations.
• Collaborate with hardware systems teams to ensure validation pools are seamlessly integrated into the ACI cloud-native IaaS/PaaS layers.
• Implement and manage zero-trust network architectures, ensuring end-to-end encryption for data in transit without sacrificing the throughput required for massive AV training sets.
• Manage "Error Budgets" for network services, balancing the need for rapid feature deployment with the requirement for extreme system stability.
• Act as the final escalation point for complex network outages, using professional-grade packet analysis and telemetry to resolve multi-dimensional issues across the stack.
