We are seeking a Network Automation Architect - a software engineer first, with deep domain expertise in network infrastructure.
This is not a traditional network engineering role with scripting. This position owns the design, development, and delivery of production-grade automation software that operates across a large-scale, multi-vendor network environment for a Managed Service Provider (MSP).
You will define the developer experience for the network organization: setting coding standards, designing extensible software architectures, building reusable Python libraries and internal platforms, implementing CI/CD pipelines, and mentoring engineers in modern software development practices.
You think in design patterns, clean abstractions, testability, and long-term maintainability - and you apply that mindset to infrastructure automation.
What You'll Own
Software Architecture & Development
  • Architect and develop production-quality Python applications, libraries, and CLI tools for network automation, orchestration, and observability.
  • Design clean, extensible architectures using patterns such as factory, strategy, adapter, and plugin-based systems to abstract vendor differences.
  • Build and maintain API integrations (REST, GraphQL, gRPC, JSON-RPC) with platforms including:
    • Arista VeloCloud
    • Palo Alto Prisma SD-WAN
    • Fortinet SD-WAN
    • Cisco Meraki
    • Juniper Mist
    • Traditional network OS platforms (IOS-XE, NX-OS, JunOS)
  • Develop internal Python packages with:
    • Proper packaging (pyproject.toml)
    • Semantic versioning
    • Dependency management
    • Internal PyPI distribution
  • Write comprehensive test suites:
    • Unit tests (pytest)
    • Integration tests
    • Network validation tests using mocks and fixtures
  • Shape Git strategies and repository structure.
  • Leverage AI/LLM developer tooling responsibly to improve productivity and code quality.

Developer Experience & Engineering Standards
  • Author and maintain coding standards, architectural decision records (ADRs), and development guidelines.
  • Establish and enforce code quality tooling:
    • PEP8
    • Ruff / Pylint
    • Black
    • MyPy
    • Pre-commit hooks
  • Design and implement CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins) for:
    • Linting
    • Testing
    • Security scanning
    • Build and release automation
  • Define Git workflows:
    • Branching strategies
    • Pull request standards
    • Code review expectations
    • Release management
  • Create project templates, scaffolding, and cookiecutters to standardize automation development.

Innovation, Automation & Technical Leadership
  • Identify manual workflows and operational pain points, then design automation solutions to eliminate them.
  • Prototype new tools, frameworks, and approaches from idea through production adoption.
  • Improve observability by integrating automation platforms with logging, monitoring, and alerting systems.
  • Contribute to technology roadmap and vendor evaluation from a software architecture and productivity perspective.

Mentorship & Culture
  • Mentor network engineers in:
    • Python development
    • Testing strategies
    • Code structure
    • Debugging
    • Version control
  • Lead code reviews with a teaching mindset.
  • Facilitate workshops, knowledge-sharing sessions, and pair programming.
  • Partner with DevOps, Cloud, Security, and Application teams to align engineering practices.

Required Qualifications
Software Engineering (Primary)
  • 7+ years of professional software development experience with Python as the primary language.
  • Advanced Python expertise:
    • Type hints
    • Dataclasses / Pydantic
    • Async / await
    • Context managers, decorators, generators
  • Experience building Python libraries, packages, and CLI tools (Click, Typer, argparse).
  • Strong testing background: pytest, mocking, fixtures, TDD.
  • Advanced Git skills (rebase, cherry-pick, bisect, hooks).
  • Hands-on experience designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines.
  • Solid grounding in SOLID principles, design patterns, and clean architecture.
  • Experience writing technical documentation and developer guidelines.

Required Network Domain Expertise
  • Strong understanding of:
    • Routing (BGP, OSPF)
    • Switching
    • VPNs and firewalls
    • SD-WAN
    • Network security fundamentals
  • Experience automating at least two or more of:
    • NetBox
    • Arista VeloCloud
    • Cisco Meraki
    • Juniper Mist
    • Palo Alto Prisma SD-WAN
    • Fortinet SD-WAN
  • Familiarity with Netmiko, NAPALM, Nornir, pyATS.
  • Experience with JSON, YAML, XML, and Jinja2 templating.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Terraform (including module or provider development)
  • AWS networking and architecture
  • Docker, Kubernetes, Linux
  • Observability stacks (Grafana, Prometheus, ELK)
  • Event-driven automation (Kafka, RabbitMQ, webhooks)
  • Database integration (PostgreSQL, Redis, SQLite)
  • Internal developer platforms, self-service portals, or ChatOps
  • Open-source contributions or public automation portfolio
  • Relevant certifications (Cisco DevNet, CCNP/CCIE, AWS, Terraform)

Why This Role
  • Architect the automation backbone of a modern MSP
  • Own standards, tooling, and culture - not just scripts
  • Solve large-scale, real-world infrastructure problems
  • High autonomy, high impact, long-term technical ownership
