Microsoft Azure Networking is looking to build and improve hyperscale network services that provide reliable connectivity, application delivery, and secure connections between on-premise networks and the cloud, leveraging SDN and NFV infrastructure.
Requirements
- 4+ years technical engineering experience with coding in languages including, but not limited to, C, C++, C-Sharp, Java, JavaScript, or Python
- 2+ years experience in one or more of the following areas: Networking: Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), User Datagram Protocol (UDP), Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), Google Remote Procedure Calls (gRPC), Transport Layer Security/Secure Sockets Layer (TLS/SSL), Hypertext Transfer Protocol/Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTP/HTTPS)
- Distributed Systems
- Designing and running large-scale fault-tolerant infrastructure services
- Representational State Transfer (RESTful) Services.
- 2+ years of experience in computer networking with a focus on layer 3 routing, including BGP and Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6).
- 2+ years of experience in building networking cloud services.
Responsibilities
- Develop, test, deploy and manage operations of critical services.
- Creates, implements, optimizes, debugs, refactors, and reuses code to establish and improve performance and maintainability, effectiveness, and return on investment (ROI).
- Acts as a Designated Responsible Individual (DRI) and guides other engineers by developing and following the playbook, working on call to monitor system/product/service for degradation, downtime, or interruptions, alerting stakeholders about status and initiates actions to restore system/product/service for simple and complex problems when appropriate.
- Proactively seeks new knowledge and adapts to new trends, technical solutions, and patterns that will improve the availability, reliability, efficiency, observability, and performance of products while also driving consistency in monitoring and operations at scale.
- design, develop, test, deploy and manage operations of critical services.
- build infrastructure and hyperscale systems that are responsible for high impact network services that provide reliable connectivity.
- innovate on Software-Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) infrastructure to improve agility, scalability, reliability and cost effectiveness of our services.
Other
- Collaborates with appropriate stakeholders to determine user requirements for a scenario.
- Drives identification of dependencies and the development of design documents for a product, application, service, or platform.
- Leverages subject-matter expertise of product features and partners with appropriate stakeholders (e.g., project managers) to drive a workgroup's project plans, release plans, and work items.
- Embody our Culture and Values
- Ability to meet Microsoft, customer and/or government security screening requirements are required for this role. These requirements include but are not limited to the following specialized security screenings: Microsoft Cloud Background Check: This position will be required to pass the Microsoft Cloud background check upon hire/transfer and every two years thereafter.
