Responsibilities:

• Driving the Automation Roadmap: You will be leading the transition from manual network management to a fully declarative, GitOps-driven deployment model.
• Optimising AI Clusters: You will be writing sophisticated code to manage and monitor InfiniBand and RoCEv2 fabrics, ensuring zero-packet-loss for massive GPU training jobs.
• Building Source of Truth: You will be integrating NetBox or Nautobot into the heart of the deployment pipeline to ensure the network is always synchronised with the intended state.
• Proactive Monitoring: You will be developing custom telemetry tools and streaming pipelines to provide real-time visibility into the performance of thousands of interconnected nodes.

Skills/Must Have:

• The Automation Toolbox: Expert-level Python (not just scripting, but building tools) and deep experience with Ansible, Terraform, or SaltStack.
• High-Scale Networking: A strong foundation in BGP, EVPN-VXLAN, and specific experience with InfiniBand or RDMA (RoCEv2).
• CI/CD Pipeline Expertise: Experience building and maintaining pipelines in GitLab CI or GitHub Actions, specifically for network infrastructure.
• Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC): A proven track record of managing datacenter networks through code and version control rather than the console.
• The "Problem Solver" DNA: A background in large-scale DataCenter environments (Hyper-scalers, FinTech, or HPC) where performance is the primary metric.

Benefits:

• Equity - $10/20,000 options
• Health cover - 90% cover for employee and 75% for dependents 

Salary:
