The Infrastructure networks are used: for commissioning of network devices; to provide an out-of-band (OOB) management plane, and; for purposes of disaster recovery and exist in our data center regions, backbone locations, optical locations and peering points of presence. We operate a fully independent global IP network with an emphasis on high availability and speed of deployment. As a principal member of our Network Infrastructure Engineering team, you will be responsible for developing IP connectivity solutions and network designs in close collaboration with partner teams. This includes designing network topologies, selecting industry technologies and protocols, liaising with vendors on feature or product development, and choosing network products and platforms that align with our product needs. In this role, you will champion innovation by bringing new network products to life, from initial concept to a functional and deployed network. You will also be responsible for design and documentation, as well as hands-on experience taking your design from concept through to feasibility in our lab. You are as confident working on backbone networks as you are working with a datacenter environment. We invite those with a passion for innovation, a knack for problem-solving, and a commitment to superb engineering, to join us as we continue to shape the future of connectivity.
