The Azure Networking Team is growing and we're looking for a creative and hard-working engineer who can combine networking engineering with software development fundamentals to help build the world's best SDN platform. We're passionate about automating every facet of the network to converge on a self-growing, self-healing network. We want engineers that are equally passionate and can look at the problems with a Customer's perspective to create user experiences that truly enable and empower Technicians, Engineers and Planners.
Focusing on the global Optical and IP backbone network, and working closely with partner teams in Azure Networking, you'll be a critical part of developing the large-scale services that drive our network to autonomy. You will focus on human-centered automation that builds and scales our network infrastructure, as well as automated and pre-emptive failure remediation (e.g. hardware failure, fiber cuts, undersea cable failures, etc...). You will get the rare opportunity to see your code in action by supporting the global network in the dev/ops model.
