Role

We are looking for a Sr. Staff Network Engineer to join our team. This is a fully remote capacity in the Netherlands role, reporting to the Manager, Network Engineering in the Cloud Ops - Network Engineering department. This position involves a mix of infrastructure, project management, and network engineering responsibilities.

• You will join our global team as an integral member, taking ownership of the deployment, monitoring, and ongoing operation of our worldwide production infrastructure across diverse data center locations.

• We are seeking a high-trust collaborator with a background in large-scale enterprise or telecom networks who approaches challenges with a growth mindset and a commitment to achieving engineering excellence.

• This role requires active participation in our technical on-call rotations, which include support during weekends and holidays to ensure continuous service reliability.

What you’ll do (Role Expectations)

• Plan, implement, document, and manage data center cabinet layouts and power density to ensure maximum efficiency and reliability

Who You Are (Success Profile)

• You act like an owner. Your passion for the mission fuels your bias for action. You operate with integrity because you genuinely care about the outcome. True ownership involves leveraging dynamic range: the ability to navigate seamlessly between high-level strategy and hands-on execution.

• You are a problem-solver. You love running towards the challenges because you are laser-focused on finding the solution, knowing that solving the hard problems delivers the biggest impact.

• You are a high-trust collaborator. You are ambitious for the team, not just yourself. You embrace our challenge culture by giving and receiving ongoing feedback—knowing that candor delivered with clarity and respect is the truest form of teamwork and the fastest way to earn trust.

• You are a learner. You have a true growth mindset and are obsessed with your own development, actively seeking feedback to become a better partner and a stronger teammate. You love what you do and you do it with purpose.

What We’re Looking for (Minimum Qualifications)

• Minimum 8 years of hands-on experience with high-speed networks (10G to 100G+), expert-level BGP routing and troubleshooting for IPv4/IPv6 in large-scale environments, and strong remote data center operations experience including device configuration, fiber debugging, and patching issue resolution.

• In-depth understanding of core networking concepts, including TCP/IP stack performance, with practical experience in IP packet analysis using Wireshark or similar tools; foundational knowledge of AI/ML technologies and experience applying, securing, or positioning AI-driven solutions within the functional domain.

• Proven ability to manage complex priorities across ticketing and inventory systems, strong written and spoken English skills, and either relevant organizational experience or a Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science Engineering; additional language skills are a plus.

What Will Make You Stand Out (Preferred Qualifications)

• Experience designing and optimizing high-performance, low-latency network infrastructure for AI training workloads, HPC environments, and GPU cluster interconnectivity.

• Strong Linux/Unix background with scripting/programming skills in shell, Python, or Perl, plus deep expertise in DNS, HTTPS, GRE, and IPsec, including automation of large-scale end-to-end deployments.

• Relevant advanced networking certifications such as CCIE Enterprise Infrastructure/Service Provider, JNCIP-ENT, JNCIP-SP, or similar are a plus.
