Descripción de la vacante

Baseten is seeking an experienced Platform/Network Engineer to design and implement a high-performance user-space data plane for sandboxed agents. You will enable private, multi-tenant networking across regions with overlays and programmable APIs, delivering low-latency routing and secure ingress/egress.

You’ll collaborate with compute, storage, GPU infra and data center teams to ship rapidly. Ideal candidates bring production-grade systems programming in Rust/Go/C/C++, expertise in VPP/FD.io,

Formación

• Experience with user-space packet processing or VNFs.
• Proven ability to build multi-tenant networking in production.
• Production-grade systems programming in Rust/Go/C/C++.
• Experience with overlay networks (VXLAN/GENEVE) and SDN.
• Experience building cloud networking as provider, not consumer.

Responsabilidades

• Design and build the user-space, VPP-based data plane that connects microVM sandboxes to each other, to Baseten services, and to the internet
• Build multi-tenant virtual private networking and overlays (for example EVPN, GENEVE, VXLAN) across regions
• Expose the network as a programmable API that the rest of the platform calls
• Cut latency and raise connection scale for agent-to-agent and agent-to-service traffic
• Build routing that sends each request to the nearest region and keeps connections working as sandboxes suspend and resume
• Build secure ingress and egress for sandboxes, including firewalling, static egress IPs, and custom domains with managed TLS
• Build L7 proxies for request inspection, filtering, secret injection, and auditing
• Own per-sandbox addressing, including IPv6, and network isolation between tenants
• Build observability for the packet path across guest, host, and network, and debug production issues end to end
• Work closely with the compute, storage, GPU infrastructure, and datacenter teams
