What You’ll Be Doing
As a Network Automation Engineer , you will play a key role in building and maintaining the network backbone of Nebul’s private cloud platform. You will design and automate complex network configurations across environments, ensuring high availability, scalability, and security. Your work enables reliable infrastructure for compute, storage, and AI workloads in our sovereign cloud environment.
Key Responsibilities
Design, implement, and manage software-defined networking (SDN) within OpenStack environments (e.g., Neutron)
Automate network configuration, monitoring, and management using Python, Ansible, or similar tools
Ensure secure and efficient connectivity across data centers, cloud, and hybrid environments
Develop and maintain provisioning systems, APIs, and templates for self-service deployment
Monitor network performance and capacity; implement observability and alerting
Collaborate with security teams to enforce segmentation, encryption, and access policies
Troubleshoot complex, real-time network issues
Contribute to the design of high-availability, fault-tolerant architectures
Document processes and share knowledge across platform and operations teams
Stay current with SDN, NFV, and automation trends in OpenStack and cloud-native ecosystems
What Your Day Will Not Look Like
Manually configuring switches or firewalls—we aim for full network automation
Waiting for someone else to define the architecture—you’ll help build it yourself
Solving the same issue repeatedly—your job is to automate it the first time
What You Bring
Proven experience managing and automating networks in OpenStack environments
Deep knowledge of SDN (especially OpenStack Neutron), routing, switching, and Layer 2/3 protocols
Hands-on experience with automation tools like Ansible, Python, Terraform, or similar
Familiarity with Linux networking, VPNs, VXLAN, BGP, and cloud firewalls
Understanding of network security, segmentation, and compliance requirements
Ability to troubleshoot complex distributed systems and communicate issues clearly
Bonus Points For:
Experience with NVIDIA hardware or AI-optimized infrastructure
Integrating networking with Kubernetes or hybrid cloud setups
Knowledge of CI/CD for network automation and infrastructure testing
Familiarity with tools such as NetBox, FRRouting, Calico, or OVN/OVS
A strong belief in automation-first infrastructure
