Full Job Description

📋 Description

• Own the design, architecture, and operation of cloud networking infrastructure across the organization’s entire engineering footprint, starting with AWS and expanding to multi-cloud environments.
• Lead the deployment of IPv6-native VPC architecture and implement IPv6 networking for EKS workloads from the ground up, including IPAM, subnetting, and routing configurations.
• Establish the foundational networking standards and best practices that all engineering teams will build against, serving as the sole authority on cloud networking decisions.
• Transition networking responsibilities from generalist DevOps engineers to a dedicated, specialized function, creating a new discipline within the organization.
• Design and implement secure, scalable private connectivity solutions including VPC peering, transit gateways, and private DNS via Route 53.
• Architect network connectivity strategies for multi-cloud environments before complexity becomes operational debt, ensuring seamless cross-provider communication.
• Define and operationalize Kubernetes networking patterns for EKS, including CNI behavior, pod-to-service addressing, ingress routing, and network policies.
• Build and maintain infrastructure-as-code (IaC) for networking using Terraform or equivalent tools within a GitOps workflow, ensuring version-controlled, auditable deployments.
• Drive technical direction without formal authority by influencing engineering teams, documenting standards, and mentoring engineers on networking best practices.
• Evaluate and recommend network security, compliance, and observability practices aligned with organizational scale and regulatory needs.
• Proactively identify and resolve network bottlenecks, latency issues, and scalability constraints in production environments.
• Collaborate with platform, product, and security teams to ensure network architecture supports application performance, reliability, and growth.
• Document network topologies, configurations, and decision rationale to enable knowledge transfer and onboarding of future team members.
• Serve as the primary point of contact for all cloud networking incidents, outages, and performance investigations, leading root cause analysis and remediation.
• Stay ahead of industry trends in cloud networking, evaluating emerging tools and architectures for adoption as the organization scales.

🎯 Requirements

• Deep, hands-on AWS networking expertise in production environments at scale
• Strong vendor-agnostic networking fundamentals: IPv4/IPv6, routing, DNS, TCP/IP, BGP, NAT
• Demonstrated experience deploying and troubleshooting IPv6 in cloud or large-scale network environments
• Production experience with VPCs, transit/peering, IPAM, and private connectivity on AWS
• Infrastructure-as-code proficiency (Terraform or equivalent) in a GitOps workflow
• Experience with Kubernetes networking, specifically EKS, including CNI and pod/service addressing

🏖️ Benefits

• High-autonomy role with broad ownership over a critical infrastructure function
• Opportunity to define a new engineering discipline from the ground up
• Competitive compensation benchmarked using trusted market data with geographic tiering
• Inclusive workplace culture committed to diversity and employee empowerment
