Job summary

Verizon is seeking a hands-on engineer to design APIs, build UI widgets, and extend AI agents across a production data center inventory platform. The role encompasses end-to-end ownership from schema design to deployment, with emphasis on secure, scalable services and dashboards used by network engineers.

You will collaborate with engineers to translate operational needs into shipped features, and contribute to a hybrid work setup with office presence required several days per week.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree or one or more years of relevant work experience.
• Experience in JavaScript/Node.js - async patterns, REST handler design, error handling.
• Experience with AI agents / LLM tool-use patterns (MCP, function calling, agent orchestration).
• Frontend fundamentals - Vue.js (or React), HTML/CSS, browser networking, state management for dashboards.

Responsibilities

• Design REST APIs (Node.js) against Postgres, with versioning, input schemas, caching, and hybrid NP/prod auth models.
• Build widgets and Vue.js views that surface network inventory and operational metrics (counts dashboards, site status, work-item boards).
• Configuring and extending AI agents (MCP servers, tool bindings, prompt design) that assist network engineers with day-to-day ops.
• Model relational data for work-item tracking, project management, and CMDB-adjacent inventory.
• Owning the full lifecycle: schema migration → API → widget → agent tool → PR → prod deploy.
• Debugging across the stack: platform security policies, credential vaults, DB pool exhaustion, agent tool-call failures.

Job description

When you join Verizon

You want more out of a career. A place to share your ideas freely - even if they're daring or different. Where the true you can learn, grow, and thrive. At Verizon, we power and empower how people live, work and play by connecting them to what brings them joy. We do what we love - driving innovation, creativity, and impact in the world. Our V Team is a community of people who anticipate, lead, and believe that listening is where learning begins. In crisis and in celebration, we come together - lifting our communities and building trust in how we show up, everywhere & always. Want in? Join the #VTeamLife.

We're building an internal API Gateway platform that consolidates network operations, project management, and AI-assisted tooling for a global network engineering organization. You'll design and ship APIs, widgets, and AI agents that run against production data center inventory (Cisco Nexus, Pica8, Arista) and drive real infrastructure decisions - site refreshes, tech refreshes, NAC deployments, and switch migrations across dozens of enterprise sites.

This is a hands-on builder role. You'll write the API, design the schema, build the Vue.js view, wire up the agent, and own the outcome end-to-end.

What You'll Do

• Designing and build REST APIs (Node.js) against Postgres, with versioning, input schemas, caching, and hybrid NP/prod auth models.
• Building widgets and Vue.js views that surface network inventory and operational metrics (counts dashboards, site status, work-item boards).
• Configuring and extending AI agents (MCP servers, tool bindings, prompt design) that assist network engineers with day-to-day ops.
• Modelling relational data for work-item tracking, project management, and CMDB-adjacent inventory.
• Owning the full lifecycle: schema migration → API → widget → agent tool → PR → prod deploy.
• Debugging across the stack: platform security policies, credential vaults, DB pool exhaustion, agent tool-call failures.
• Collaborating with network engineers to translate ops asks ("we need a counts page showing X Nexus, Y Pica8") into shipped features.

You’ll need to have

• Bachelor's degree or one or more years of relevant work experience.
• One or more years of relevant work experience, demonstrated through one or a combination of work and/or military experience, or specialized training.
• Experience in JavaScript/Node.js - async patterns, REST handler design, error handling.
• Experience with AI agents / LLM tool-use patterns (MCP, function calling, agent orchestration).
• Frontend fundamentals - Vue.js (or React), HTML/CSS, browser networking, state management for dashboards.

Even better if you have

• Network engineering domain knowledge (Cisco Nexus, Pica8, Arista, NAC, VXLAN, data center refresh workflows)
• Strong SQL and relational modeling - Postgres preferred; comfortable writing migrations, joins, and parameterized queries.
• API design discipline - input validation, versioning, idempotency, auth, rate limiting.
• Git workflow proficiency - branching, PR hygiene, disciplined commits, comfortable with staged/unstaged distinctions.Debugging across boundaries - reading platform errors, tracing failures from UI → API → DB → external system.Security-aware coding - credential vaults, secrets handling, least privilege, understanding prod vs non-prod boundaries.Clear written communication - turning fuzzy asks into scoped work items; documentation others can act on.Project management systems (PMO, epics/stories/tasks) and integrations with them.Prior work on internal developer platforms or low-code/API-gateway tooling.Experience with ServiceNow, CMDB, or IT asset management systems.

  What Success Looks Like in Year One

  • You've shipped multiple end-to-end features (schema → API → UI → agent tool) that network engineers use weekly.
  • You've reduced manual toil for at least one recurring ops workflow.
  • You've extended the platform's agent capabilities so engineers can get answers conversationally instead of navigating dashboards.

  Where you'll be working

  In this hybrid role, you'll have a defined work location that includes working from home and a minimum of three days per week in the office, which will be set by your manager. Employees are responsible for maintaining compliance with hybrid work policies.
