Role Overview
We are seeking a skilled Network Engineer to become an integral part of our Deployment & Integration team. In this hands-on role, you will be responsible for constructing and validating large-scale AI data center network infrastructures. Your responsibilities will include deploying modern data center fabrics, configuring switches, validating physical layer connections, collaborating with cross-functional teams to address challenges, and ensuring a seamless transition to operations.
This position is perfect for engineers who thrive in dynamic environments and wish to gain extensive experience in large-scale data center deployments. You will collaborate closely with senior engineers who will provide you with technical mentorship and structured onboarding as you hone your skills in AI fabric deployment. Achieving success in this role means independently managing pod deployments, becoming the go-to expert for field execution, and progressing into leadership roles as our organization expands.
Key Responsibilities
Deployment Execution: Oversee the deployment and validation of data center network infrastructure, including front-end and back-end fabrics, Building Management Systems (BMS), and management networks. You will configure switches, install and validate optics, coordinate fiber and cabling work, and guide deployments to completion, taking ownership of transforming designs into operational networks.
Physical Layer Validation: Ensure physical connectivity adheres to production standards. Coordinate with structured cabling teams for fiber remediation, validate insertion loss and Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) traces, troubleshoot optical layer issues, and document physical infrastructure as-built. You will develop expertise in diagnosing and resolving physical layer challenges that impede deployments.
Hardware Lifecycle Management: Manage hardware logistics such as device staging, rack and stack coordination, Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) processes, and Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) updates. Monitor hardware inventory, coordinate vendor shipments, and ensure device readiness.
