software engineering, network engineering, and DevOps , with responsibility for the full SDLC—from architecture and coding to testing, deployment, and operations.
You will develop
playbooks, reusable frameworks, and automated test suites
that provision, monitor, and validate complex network topologies at scale. The role requires close collaboration with development, test, and operations teams to deliver a frictionless self‑service automation platform that enhances
reliability, speed, and security
for internal stakeholders.
This is an opportunity to
shape automation standards, controls, and telemetry
for a high‑performance, secure platform while mentoring peers and enabling engineering teams to accelerate delivery.
Key Responsibilities Automation Architecture & Development
Design and implement greenfield network automation solutions.
Architect reusable
Ansible/Python frameworks, roles, and modules
for Arista EOS.
Develop abstracted device classes and methods to provision, configure, and monitor devices at scale.
Automated Testing & Quality
Build and maintain automated test suites integrated into CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitLab CI/CD).
Monitor test execution, analyze failures, and perform root cause analysis.
Deliver actionable bug reports and continuously improve automation reliability.
Provisioning, Observability & Security
Implement automation for provisioning and validation using REST, OpenConfig, gNMI, and Ansible.
Build logging, metrics, telemetry, and security controls to ensure efficiency and compliance.
Standards, SDLC & Enablement
