Description
CloudLinux and TuxCare build Linux, security, and enterprise infrastructure products used by hosting providers, software vendors, and engineering teams around the world. The Infrastructure team runs the platforms behind that work: data centers, public cloud providers, OpenNebula, Kubernetes/Talos, Ceph, CI/CD, observability, identity and access systems, and internal services.
We are hiring a hands-on Senior Cloud Network Engineer & Architect to own and evolve the network layer of our hybrid infrastructure. This is an engineering role with real architecture ownership: you will design, implement, monitor, document, automate, secure, and troubleshoot production networking across data centers, cloud regions, Kubernetes/Talos clusters, OpenNebula environments, and bare metal.
This is a technical ownership role. It is not a diagrams-only architecture position, and it is not a people-management role. You will define technical solutions, ship production changes, verify behavior, support incidents, and leave behind the runbooks, diagrams, and automation that make the next change safer.
How We Work
We are a remote-first Infrastructure team organized into small senior cells. You will work with one existing network engineer, core infrastructure engineers, and adjacent Infrastructure teams. Networking is a high-impact shared dependency, so we value calm incident work and automation that reduces repeat pressure. The value of this role is turning complex demand into reliable systems, clear ownership, safer changes, and observable operations.
What You Will Own
- Design and operate reliable cross-DC and hybrid connectivity across IPsec, BGP, routing policy, firewalling, DNS, Cloudflare, provider networking, and cloud connectivity.
- Build highly available network paths across data centers, public cloud providers, OpenNebula, Kubernetes/Talos, and bare-metal infrastructure.
- Own network changes end to end: design, risk assessment, peer review, rollout, monitoring, validation, rollback, and post-change notes.
- Replace fragile manual patterns with documented, observable, repeatable services using Git review, automation, scripts, source-of-truth data, and monitoring.
- Debug and resolve production incidents involving Linux networking, BIRD/FRR, strongSwan, Juniper JunOS, firewalls, Cloudflare, DNS, MTU/MSS, asymmetric routing, NAT/conntrack, packet loss, Kubernetes CNI behavior, and provider constraints.
- Maintain architecture documents, topology diagrams, HLD/LLD specs, runbooks, disaster recovery procedures, configuration snapshots, IPAM/source-of-truth data, and operational handoff material.
What You Bring
- Senior production networking experience in environments where availability matters.
- Strong BGP and routing fundamentals: prefix filtering, communities, route policy, failover, and debugging.
- Strong IPsec, VPN, and site-to-site connectivity experience, ideally with strongSwan.
- Deep Linux networking knowledge: iproute2, tcpdump, nftables/iptables, conntrack, and MTU/MSS troubleshooting.
- Datacenter networking fundamentals: VLANs, LACP, switching, and firewalls.
- Cloud and provider networking experience: VPC/VNet, CIDR planning, security groups, and NAT.
- Kubernetes networking fundamentals: CNI, Services, Ingress, and NetworkPolicy.
- Comfort with infrastructure automation using scripting, APIs, Ansible, and Terraform/OpenTofu.
