• Define and influence network architecture initiatives, creating abstractions for hybrid connectivity between Data Centers and Kubernetes clusters
• Operate reliable and cost-efficient infrastructure across regions
• Lead initiatives to migrate legacy network setups to a modern, automated architecture
• Build robust monitoring and observability into the network layer to shorten feedback loops during outages or latency events
• Work with external partners (ISPs, DC providers) and internal engineering and security teams to deliver secure infrastructure solutions
• Advocate for best practices across network security and connectivity

Requirements:

• Strong experience with Linux/Unix internals, docker containerization, container orchestration and command-line tools
• Experience configuring and managing enterprise-grade network hardware and firewalls
• Experience with one of the major cloud providers (GCP or AWS) and their specific networking constructs

• A desire to work on more than just networking, including cloud infrastructure that runs on the network backbone you provision
• Sound understanding of CS foundations and networking protocols
• Proven experience working in both physical Data Center environments (racking, stacking, switch configuration) and Cloud Infrastructure (GCP, AWS or others)
• Strong verbal and written communication skills
• You have prior experience with Terraform or other IACs for network automation
• Experience with setting up and monitoring private B2B connectivity
• Desire to work outside of just the networking world
• In your mind, the word 'crypto' stands for cryptography, not cryptocurrency
