• Develop, optimize, and maintain network observability platforms. Use your skills in Python and Golang to create and automate collectors, exporters, and dashboards that provide deep visibility into network health and performance.
• Collaborate with Network Engineering and Platform teams to ingest and unify logs, metrics, and events from a variety of platforms (Arista EOS, NVIDIA Cumulus Linux, Nokia SR OS, SR Linux, etc.) into a single observability pipeline.
• Design and implement scalable telemetry solutions using protocols like gNMI, SNMP, and streaming analytics. Ensure advanced alerting and anomaly detection with tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, and Alert manager.
• Work closely with network developers, site reliability engineers, and security teams to integrate observability solutions across the broader infrastructure. Participate in design discussions, RFCs, and architectural decisions.
• Join a rotating on-call schedule to troubleshoot and resolve observability-related issues. Provide timely support to operations teams, quickly isolating and fixing problems when they arise.
• Guide junior team members, share best practices, and foster a culture of continuous learning and improvement within the observability domain.

• Deep familiarity with Prometheus, Grafana, Alert manager, gNMI, and SNMP. Experience writing or extending custom metric collectors/exporters is a plus.
• Experience as a Network Engineer, SRE, Software Developer, or Systems Administrator in large‑scale environments. A track record of building and operating robust telemetry and monitoring solutions is a plus.
• Passion for automating tasks and processes. You find satisfaction in creating workflows that handle repetitive tasks and reduce human error to near zero.
• Comfortable containerizing solutions in Kubernetes, designing, building, and deploying container‑based workloads efficiently.
• Proficient with Python, Go, and Bash, plus familiarity with configuration management and templating tools (e.g., Ansible, Jinja2).
• Strong knowledge of Linux systems and IP networking concepts, with hands‑on experience in routing, switching, and network troubleshooting.
• Practical knowledge with a variety of platforms, including Arista EOS, NVIDIA Cumulus Linux, Nokia SR OS, and SR Linux.
• Collaborative, humble, and always ready to help others while staying open to learning from more senior colleagues.

• College
  
  Education:
  
  Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related field.
• Machine Learning for Anomaly Detection:
