About the Role
IT’s Network Engineering organization runs network operations at scale and is automating them end-to-end, building Network-as-Code and NetDevOps practices.
This role owns the day-to-day operational health of the network, including observability, reliability, and vulnerability remediation, while also building the automation and tooling that make ongoing operations secure and faster.
