Network Engineer, Deployment

We exist to make humanity more free. Technology gave people more time for the things they wanted to do, instead of things they had to do. Powerful AI will be the biggest lever for human choice we've ever built—but only if models are aligned with what humanity actually wants. We're singularly focused on delivering 10 to 100s of GWs of compute faster than anyone else, rethinking every layer of the stack. We acquire power, design and build data centers, and operate them—with teams spanning hardware and software. Speed and scale are our key differentiators.

About the role

The Infrastructure Team is working on:

• Turn up gigawatts at the speed of light: first rack to full fabric convergence across tens of thousands of links in weeks, at a new site every few months.
• Automate yourself out of the cutsheet: ZTP every device, machine-validate every link, and burn down turn-up queues with tooling instead of headcount.
• Make handoff mean flawless: every optic clean, every link error-tested, every config golden before a training job ever touches the fabric.

Responsibilities

• Deploy and validate data center network infrastructure (front-end, back-end, BMS, management): configure switches, install and validate optics, coordinate cabling, and drive deployments to completion.
• Ensure physical connectivity meets production standards: coordinate fiber remediation, validate insertion loss and OTDR traces, troubleshoot optical-layer issues, and document as-builts.
• Manage hardware logistics: device staging, rack/stack coordination, RMA, DCIM updates, inventory, and vendor shipments so devices are ready when deployments need them.
• Partner with DC Operations, ICT, Hardware, and Network Engineering to identify blockers early, escalate decisively, and keep multi-team efforts on track.
• Maintain cutsheets, as-builts, validation results, and lessons learned, and contribute to the deployment playbook that lets the team scale.
• Provide operational support during and after deployments: incident response, troubleshooting, and break-fix.

Requirements

• Hands-on data center network engineering experience with modern fabrics (EVPN/VXLAN, BGP, CLOS) and configuring production infrastructure.
• Comfort working in the field: pulling cable, configuring switches, troubleshooting the optical layer, and executing with available tooling.
• Methodical troubleshooting across physical and logical layers: OTDR traces, insertion loss, BGP sessions, and connectivity through complex topologies.
• Clear communication across technical and non-technical teams, strong documentation, and follow-through.
• Ability to learn fast, take ownership of new technology, and travel 50 to 60% to onsite deployments.

Nice to have

• AI fabric turn-up experience.
• Configuration management and automation tooling experience.
• Vendor certifications.

Benefits

• Competitive total compensation package (salary + equity).
• Retirement or pension plan, in line with local norms.
• Health, dental, and vision insurance.
• Generous PTO policy, in line with local norms.

Pay

Compensation range: $164,000 – $206,000.
