Job Description

As a Senior Dev Ops & Network Automation Engineer, you’ll design, build, and scale the automation frameworks that make our infrastructure repeatable, observable, and self-healing. You’ll focus on deep networking automation — from provisioning and configuration to monitoring and optimization using modern IaC tools like Ansible, Terraform, and Python/Go-based automation frameworks.

This role blends Dev Ops engineering, network systems, and infrastructure reliability - perfect for someone who wants to shape how AI infrastructure is deployed and managed at scale.

What You’ll Do Infrastructure Automation & Tooling
  • Build and maintain automated provisioning frameworks for compute, network, and storage systems using Ansible, Terraform, and related tooling.
  • Build and maintain automated provisioning frameworks for compute, network, and storage systems using Ansible, Terraform, and related tooling.
  • Develop reusable playbooks, roles, and modules to standardize infrastructure delivery and reduce manual configuration drift.
  • Integrate automation workflows into CI/CD pipelines for consistent deployment of infrastructure and configuration changes.
Network Engineering & Automation
  • Design and automate Layer 2–7 network configuration and lifecycle management (routing, VLANs, EVPN/VXLAN, firewalls, load balancers, DNS, etc.).
  • Develop Ansible automation for network devices and software-defined infrastructure (SDN, SR-IOV, BGP, virtual switching).
  • Implement automated network validation, testing, and telemetry collection pipelines.
  • Contribute to the evolution of Ori’s multi-tenant, multi-cloud network fabric.
Dev Ops & Platform Reliability
  • Contribute to the evolution of Ori’s multi-tenant, multi-cloud network fabric.
  • Implement CI/CD pipelines that validate and deploy infrastructure changes safely and predictably across environments.
  • Develop observability pipelines for infrastructure health — metrics, logs, traces — using Prometheus, Grafana, and open telemetry tools.
  • Contribute to reliability engineering practices: automated rollbacks, health checks, drift detection, and self-repair logic.
Systems Integration & Operations
  • Collaborate with software engineering, platform, and product teams to design and deliver end-to-end automation across Ori’s clusters.
  • Integrate infrastructure automation with Kubernetes, bare-metal provisioning, and hybrid-cloud environments.
  • Maintain and evolve the operational toolchain for configuration management, monitoring, and lifecycle orchestration.
Architecture & Continuous Improvement
  • Evaluate emerging Dev Ops and network automation tools, identifying opportunities for integration or migration.
  • Drive standardization of infrastructure-as-code practices across the organization.
  • Develop architectural and operational documentation for repeatability, auditability, and onboarding.
  • Lead technical discussions and mentor engineers in automation, networking, and Dev Ops best practices.
What You Bring
  • 7+ years of experience in Dev Ops, infrastructure automation, or network engineering roles.
  • Deep hands‑on experience with Ansible, Terraform, Git Ops pipelines (ArgoCD, Flux, or similar).
  • Strong scripting or development skills in Python, Go, or Bash for automation workflows.
  • Proven expertise with networking concepts and tools - TCP/IP, BGP, DNS, VLANs, EVPN/VXLAN, SR-IOV, routing, and switching.
  • Experience automating physical or virtual infrastructure across bare-metal and cloud environments (AWS, GCP, Azure).
  • Solid understanding of Linux systems administration, CI/CD pipelines (Git Hub Actions, etc), and observability stacks.
  • Familiarity with containerization (Docker) and Kubernetes (CNI plugins, ingress,…
