About the Role:

We are seeking an experienced Network Automation / Network DevOps Engineer to join our team in a fully remote capacity. This role is focused exclusively on professionals with a strong background in network engineering and automation, and not general cloud or DevOps engineers.

You will be responsible for designing, implementing, and automating network solutions in a large-scale, complex infrastructure environment.

Minimum Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related technical field, or equivalent experience/certification.
  • 10+ years of experience as a Network Engineer, with deep expertise in designing and implementing complex networks.
  • 5+ years of hands-on experience with Ansible and Ansible Tower for automating network functions.
  • 2+ years of experience writing Python applications for network automation tasks.
  • 2+ years of experience building CI/CD pipelines for network automation using tools such as GitHub, GitLab, Jenkins.

  • 2+ years of experience as part of a Network Operations team supporting enterprise environments.
  • Relevant certifications in network and/or security technologies (e.g., CCIE, CCNP, Cisco DevNet, CISSP, etc.).

Preferred Skills (Nice to Have):

  • Familiarity with network virtualization, SDN, and security automation.
  • Experience with version control systems (e.g., Git) and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) best practices.
  • Knowledge of REST APIs and integration with network devices/vendors.
  • Exposure to monitoring and observability tools in networking contexts.
  •  

What We’re NOT Looking For: Please do not submit profiles focused on Cloud Engineering or DevOps roles without networking automation expertise. This is not a cloud or sysadmin position.

Why Join Us?

  • Work 100% remotely from anywhere in the U.S.
  • Collaborate with a high-performing and innovative engineering team.
  • Tackle complex network automation challenges in a supportive environment.
  • Enjoy a culture that values technical excellence, transparency, and work-life balance.
