Responsibilities:

• Support the design, deployment, configuration, and maintenance of InfiniBand and Ethernet network infrastructures.

• Troubleshoot complex network issues, including connectivity, latency, routing, and performance degradation across hybrid environments.

• Manage and optimize high-performance network components, such as switches, Host Channel Adapters (HCAs), subnet managers, and fabric configurations.

• Implement, manage, and troubleshoot network security and firewall technologies (e.g., Fortinet solutions like FortiGate, VPNs).

• Monitor network health, perform performance tuning, and assist in capacity planning for HPC and AI networking systems.

• Collaborate with compute, storage, and platform teams to seamlessly support HPC and AI workloads.

• Participate in incident response, on-call support activities, and drive long-term operational improvements.

• Document network architectures, configurations, and operational procedures, and adopt automation tools (e.g., Ansible, Terraform) to streamline workflows.

Qualifications

• Proven experience in networking, system engineering, or data center infrastructure roles.

• Solid understanding of networking fundamentals, including TCP/IP, routing protocols (BGP, OSPF), switching, VLANs, QoS, and network design.

• Hands-on experience or strong familiarity with Linux operating systems and command-line tools.

• Effective verbal and written communication skills in English, with the ability to collaborate in a global team environment.

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills to diagnose and resolve complex network challenges.

Nice to have:

• Exposure to or hands-on experience with InfiniBand fabrics and high-performance networking concepts (e.g., NVIDIA/Mellanox).

• Familiarity with or certifications in enterprise firewall technologies (e.g., Fortinet FCSS/FCNSP, CCNP/CCIE).

• Experience with large-scale HPC clusters, AI/ML infrastructure, or distributed systems environments.

• Knowledge of RDMA, MPI, and low-latency networking concepts.

• Proficiency in scripting languages (e.g., Python, Bash) and Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) tools for automation.
