Job description

Backed by leading Silicon Valley investors, Peregrine helps public safety organizations, state and local and governments, federal agencies, and private‑sector institutions address society’s challenges with unprecedented speed and accuracy. Our AI‑enabled platform turns siloed and disconnected data into operational intelligence — instantly surfacing mission‑critical information to empower better, faster decisions that improve outcomes at every touchpoint. Today Peregrine supports hundreds of customers across 30+ states and two countries, serving more than 125 million people — and we’re amplifying our impact as we expand into the enterprise and internationally.

Role

We are looking to add a Software Engineer, Networking to expand our high‑impact Platform team. You’ll build the software layer that automates what network engineers typically do manually. You're equally comfortable writing Python to automate network tasks as you are troubleshooting complex network connectivity issues.

Our team builds and operates the systems that enable secure, reliable connectivity between our platform and customer environments. As we scale, we are evolving from manual network operations to a software‑driven, self‑service model.

In this role, you will design and build the control plane and automation systems that power network connectivity at scale, while still being close enough to the infrastructure to debug real‑world issues when they arise.

About you

• Design and build systems to provision and manage network connectivity for hundreds of customer environments now while scaling for thousands in the near future
• Extend and improve APIs and services that enable self‑service networking
• Automate infrastructure workflows across AWS and customer environments using Python, Terraform and Pulumi
• Own and improve the reliability, scalability, and observability of networking systems
• Lead debugging of complex connectivity issues across distributed systems
• Contribute to architecture and collaborate cross‑functionally to improve end‑to‑end connectivity

What we’re looking for

• 5+ years of experience in software, infrastructure, or network engineering roles, with a focus on systems at scale
• Strong programming skills (e.g., Python, Go, or similar) with experience building production systems or services
• Solid understanding of networking fundamentals (e.g., TCP/IP, routing, NAT, VPNs)
• Experience with cloud platforms and networking constructs (e.g., VPCs, routing, security)
• Experience building or operating distributed systems or infrastructure (e.g., control planes, automation systems)
• Strong debugging skills and ability to work across system and network boundaries
• Based in and around one of our offices in SF or NYC and excited to work in‑office.

Salary Range: $200,000 - $250,000 Annually + Benefits + Equity (if applicable) + Bonus (if applicable)
