## Description

Lambda, The Superintelligence Cloud, is a leader in AI cloud infrastructure serving tens of thousands of customers.

You will design, build, and operate the software that automates Lambda's network lifecycle, from data center build-out and device provisioning through day-2 operations.

Responsibilities:

- Design, build, and operate the software that automates Lambda's network lifecycle

- Build provisioning and zero-touch deployment systems that take network devices for new GPU clusters from racked to production-ready with minimal manual work

- Develop pipelines that generate, validate, and deploy network configuration as code, with automated testing, staged rollouts, and safe rollback

- Build capacity planning tools that combine inventory, topology, and utilization data to forecast port, bandwidth, optics, and IP address needs as Lambda's footprint grows

- Keep intended and live network state in sync by integrating automation with Lambda's source-of-truth, inventory, and IPAM systems

- Create APIs, services, and CLIs that network engineers and other internal teams use to request, change, and audit network resources

- Instrument the systems you own with metrics, logging, and alerting, and use that data to improve their reliability and speed

- Partner with Network Engineering, Data Center Operations, and platform teams to turn manual runbooks into reliable, self-service automation

- Participate in the on-call rotation for the automation systems and tooling your team owns

Requirements:

- Have 6+ years of professional software engineering experience building and operating production systems

- Write production-quality code, with deep expertise in multiple languages

- Have built automation or infrastructure tooling used by other engineers

- Have a solid grasp of distributed systems design, including API design, data modeling, idempotency, and handling partial failures

- Follow strong engineering practices: code review, automated testing, CI/CD, and git-based workflows

- Are comfortable on the Linux command line and understand core networking concepts

- Have led technical projects end to end, from design doc through production rollout, and mentored other engineers along the way

- Communicate clearly with software engineers, network engineers, and operations teams

Nice to Have:

- Experience in the networking domain

- Experience automating network devices from vendors such as Arista, Juniper, Cisco, or NVIDIA

- Familiarity with network automation tools and libraries

- Experience building on network source-of-truth, DCIM, or IPAM systems

- Experience building capacity planning or forecasting tools

- Familiarity with HPC/AI networking

- Experience running services on Kubernetes

- Understanding of data center power, space, and cooling constraints

Benefits:

- Generous cash & equity compensation

- Health, dental, and vision coverage for you and your dependents

- Wellness and commuter stipends for select roles

- 401k Plan with 2% company match (USA employees)

- Flexible paid time off plan
