Role Overview
The Network Engineer (57313-1) position in Seattle, WA, is a critical role focused on the intersection of traditional network operations and modern software-defined infrastructure. As a key member of the engineering team, you will be responsible for maintaining the reliability and performance of complex network environments while driving the transition toward automated, code-driven management. This role requires a unique blend of networking expertise and software development proficiency, particularly in languages like Python and Go. Seattle is a global hub for cloud computing and networking technology, and this role places you at the center of that ecosystem. You will contribute to projects that impact millions of users, ensuring that the underlying network fabric is robust enough to handle massive data flows while remaining flexible enough to adapt to new service requirements.
Key Responsibilities
- Monitor, troubleshoot, and optimize network infrastructure performance to ensure maximum uptime and efficiency for global operations.
- Develop and implement automated solutions for configuration management, proactive monitoring, and real-time alerting systems.
- Support incident response efforts, performing deep-dive root-cause analysis (RCA) to prevent recurrence and restore services rapidly.
- Partner with cross-functional network engineering teams to design and deploy scalable, resilient architectures that meet evolving business needs.
- Develop high-quality, scalable applications, scripts, and automation frameworks using Python, Go, and Node.js.
- Integrate diverse network platforms using RESTful APIs, SDKs, and custom automation pipelines.
- Maintain and enhance CI/CD pipelines for the seamless deployment and validation of network tools and configurations.
- Ensure high code quality through rigorous peer reviews, comprehensive testing, and detailed technical documentation.
- Build and manage Infrastructure as Code (IaC) workflows using industry-standard tools such as Terraform and Ansible.
- Automate repetitive and manual network tasks to significantly improve operational efficiency and reduce human error.
- Implement observability solutions, including centralized logging, metrics collection, and distributed tracing for network application ecosystems.
- Collaborate closely with NetOps, Security, and Cloud Engineering teams to align infrastructure goals with security and cloud strategies.
- Translate operational pain points and manual bottlenecks into scalable, automated technical solutions.
- Mentor junior developers and engineers, promoting a culture of DevOps, automation best practices, and continuous learning.
Technical Requirements
- Extensive experience in Network Operations (NetOps) within large-scale enterprise or service provider environments.
- Strong programming proficiency in Python, Go (Golang), and JavaScript or TypeScript.
- Hands-on experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools, specifically Terraform and Ansible.
- Deep understanding of CI/CD principles and experience managing deployment pipelines.
- Familiarity with network protocols (BGP, OSPF, EIGRP) and hardware platforms (Cisco, Juniper, Arista).
- Experience with API integration and developing software-defined networking (SDN) solutions.
- Knowledge of observability tools and frameworks for monitoring network health and application performance.
Professional Environment
Joining this team means working at the forefront of network innovation. You will be part of a collaborative environment that values technical excellence and creative problem-solving. The role is based onsite in Seattle, offering the opportunity to work directly with cutting-edge hardware and software in a dynamic, fast-paced setting. We are looking for individuals who are passionate about automation and eager to redefine how networks are built and managed in the modern era. The ideal candidate will not only possess the technical skills listed but also a mindset geared toward automating everything. In this role, you are not just a consumer of network tools but a creator of them. You will be expected to identify manual processes that hinder agility and replace them with robust, version-controlled code. This transition from manual CLI-based management to a programmatic approach is the core mission of the Network Engineer in this group. Furthermore, the collaboration with the Security team is paramount. As networks become more software-defined, the security perimeter shifts. You will play a vital role in ensuring that automation scripts and IaC templates adhere to the highest security standards, incorporating automated security checks into the CI/CD process.
