What You’ll Do

We're seeking a talented and experienced Senior Network Developer to join our Network Development Team. In this role, you'll play a critical part in designing, developing, automating, and maintaining the networking software and infrastructure that powers CoreWeave’s GPU cloud.

Your day-to-day will involve writing code, creating configuration templates, designing dashboards, building CLI tools, and working closely with our Network Engineering and Network Observability teams to automate, operate, and monitor CoreWeave’s network.

Your goal? To make our network so highly automated and intelligent that you'll almost forget it's even there.

About The Role

• Use your skills in Python, Go, and Bash to write scripts and tools that make deploying, managing, and monitoring our network a breeze.
• Work closely with software developers, system engineers, and security teams to ensure our network automation solutions mesh well with our cloud applications and internal services.
• Implement and manage Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) processes to automate network device provisioning and configuration with little human interaction.
• Oversee network projects from start to finish—planning, executing, and delivering network augments, upgrades, or new network vendor deployments.
• Participate in an on-call rotation, troubleshoot and resolve network-related issues, and provide timely support to the operations team.
• Share your knowledge and guide junior team members, fostering a culture of continuous learning and improvement.
• Participate in code reviews, design discussions, RFCs, and architecture decisions to ensure high-quality software development practices.
  
  

Who You Are

• 8 years as a Network Engineer, Software Developer, Systems Administrator, or similar role—preferably in large-scale enterprise or cloud settings.
• You bring a positive mindset without an ego. You're always ready to help junior team members and learn from the more senior ones.
• You love automating tasks/processes and seeing systems come to life with near zero human interaction.
• Proficient in languages like Python, Go, and Bash and tooling like Ansible, Jinja and NetBox.
• You're willing (and excited) to containerize just about anything in Kubernetes.
• Deep familiarity with Prometheus, Grafana, Alertmanager, gNMI, and SNMP.
• Deep understanding and working knowledge of Linux.
• You've worked with a variety of networking platforms, including:
• NVIDIA Cumulus Linux
• Nokia SR OS and SR Linux
• Arista EOS
• Experience supporting and rolling out large-scale infrastructure projects.
  

Nice to Have (but not required)

• College Education: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related field.
• Front-End Skills: Experience with JavaScript and other front-end tools.
• Network Certifications: Certifications like CCNA, CCNP, or similar.
• Custom Metrics and Exporters: Experience writing custom metric collectors and exporters.
