  • Working knowledge of REST APIs, data validation, authentication mechanisms, and testing frameworks

Network Domain Knowledge
  • Working understanding of IP networking, routing, and switching fundamentals
  • Ability to read and understand network configurations
  • Familiarity with dynamic routing protocols such as BGP, OSPF, or IS-IS
  • Comfortable translating network requirements into code

Highly Desirable
  • Graph database experience and infrastructure-as-code version control practices
  • Netbox, Nautobot, or Infrahub experience
  • Service provider environments or carrier-grade networks
  • Ansible or other configuration management platform
  • Go, Rust, or additional scripting languages
  • MPLS, segment routing, EVPN/VXLAN architectures
