Job Description

You own the north-south fabric that connects our AI cloud to the world - and drive the automation that turns EVPN/BGP ops from tickets into policy.

NeoCloud is building an AI-operated GPU cloud spanning 4 US DCs, APAC sites, and Iceland. In this role you own the IP/Ethernet infrastructure that connects that fleet - DCI, WAN, internet edge, tenant-facing networks - and you build the automation that lets the AIOps substrate express network intent as code, not as change tickets.

What You'll Own

• EVPN-VxLAN data center fabrics for multi-tenant network isolation and workload mobility.
• Multi-site DCI overlay/underlay connecting 4 US DCs with consistent L2/L3 services.
• BGP (eBGP/iBGP), OSPF, ECMP load balancing, and VxLAN across spine-leaf architectures.
• IP transit, peering relationships, and internet edge infrastructure.
• WAN/IP backbone connecting US DCs to APAC and Iceland sites.
• Network equipment: Arista, Cisco, and Palo Alto switches, routers, and firewalls.
• Network automation with Ansible, Terraform, Nautobot/NetBox for IPAM/DCIM.
• Network health, capacity, and SLA monitoring across all sites.
• Network architecture docs, standard configs, and change procedures.

Feed the AIOps substrate

• Every route policy, ACL, VRF, and peering session lives as code in the platform's config-management substrate - no config drift, no snowflakes.
• Every BGP flap, every DCI degradation feeds the network-stability predictor.
• Every routine change becomes a workflow the remediation actuator can execute under a maintenance window.

Job Requirement

• 5+ years in data center network engineering, with hands-on EVPN-VxLAN deployment experience
• Strong BGP expertise (eBGP/iBGP, route policies, communities, traffic engineering)
• Experience designing and operating multi-site DCI with EVPN multi-homing
• Proficiency with Arista EOS and/or Cisco NX-OS in spine-leaf data center environments
• Experience with firewall platforms (Palo Alto, Fortinet) for perimeter and inter-tenant security
• Hands-on experience with IP transit provisioning and internet peering
• Familiarity with network automation tools (Ansible, Python/Netmiko, Nautobot/NetBox)
• Strong understanding of QoS, traffic engineering, and capacity planning for DC networks
• AIOps aptitude - you've either driven a network-automation program from ticket-driven ops to intent-driven policy, or you have a clear thesis on how you would.
• Runbook-as-code mindset - configs, changes, and rollbacks should be executable by an agent.
