Senior Python Engineer – Network Systems & Automation Architect

📋 Description

• • As a Senior Python Engineer specializing in Network Systems & Automation Architecture at Astreya Partners, you will be at the forefront of designing, developing, and implementing sophisticated Python-driven platforms. Your primary focus will be on enhancing automation, observability, and intelligent network operations, directly impacting the reliability, speed, and visibility of critical systems. This role offers a unique opportunity to move beyond routine maintenance and engage in high-impact engineering that multiplies the effectiveness of entire teams.
• • You will architect robust and scalable automation frameworks, meticulously designed to eliminate manual workflows and streamline complex operational processes. This involves creating elegant, production-grade Python code with a strong emphasis on architectural integrity and rigorous testing discipline. Your solutions will be built with a systems-thinking approach, considering concurrency, performance optimization, and scalability from the ground up.
• • A key responsibility will be building internal tools and services that seamlessly interface with a wide array of network devices and infrastructure platforms. This includes integrating with routers, firewalls, various APIs, and advanced telemetry systems. You will leverage your deep understanding of network protocols such as TCP/IP, DNS, routing, and firewalls to engineer solutions that effectively manage and optimize network behavior.
• • You will be instrumental in developing high-impact dashboards and telemetry-driven tools. These tools will transform raw data, logs, and metrics into actionable operational clarity, providing teams with the insights they need to make informed decisions. The goal is to convert raw telemetry into decision-grade insight, making complex data accessible and understandable.
• • Furthermore, you will create scalable Python services designed for real-time ingestion, processing, and analysis of network and system data. This involves building sophisticated data pipelines capable of handling large volumes of information efficiently.
• • A critical aspect of your role will be engineering validation, compliance, and self-healing mechanisms directly into your automation pipelines. This proactive approach ensures the integrity and resilience of the systems you build, reducing downtime and improving overall system health.
• • This position is for an engineer who thinks in systems, not just scripts, and possesses a proven track record of building APIs, automation engines, data processors, or distributed services. You should have a solid grasp of network fundamentals and the ability to diagnose and engineer solutions for real-world latency and connectivity issues.
• • The impact of your work will be profound. You will turn operational complexity into automated precision, replacing ad-hoc solutions and tribal knowledge with well-engineered, scalable platforms. The output of your efforts will not be measured in tickets closed, but in tangible gains in leverage, reliability, and intelligent automation across the organization. You will be a key contributor to building systems that scale in tandem with the growing infrastructure, ensuring operational excellence and efficiency.
