Vultr is seeking a highly skilled and experienced NetDevOps Engineer to help us evolve, automate and operate our RoCE-based Ethernet fabrics. This is a highly visible role in a high-growth technology company where you’l bel working at the intersection of network engineering, operations, automation, and observability. Building and operating the tooling and telemetry pipelines that keep the network fabrics fast, deterministic, and reliable at global scale. This is your opportunity to join our fast growing team that moves quickly, thinks programmatically and treats networks as software systems

 

Key Responsibilities

  • Automate deployment and operations of large-scale RDMA (RoCEv2) Ethernet fabrics across Vultr data centers.

  • Build Ansible and Python-based frameworks to provision, validate, and remediate underlay and overlay networks.

  • Integrate network automation with Vultr’s source-of-truth systems (NetBox, OpsMill) for intent-driven configuration and validation.

  • Develop telemetry ingestion and correlation pipelines (gNMI, Prometheus, Kafka, custom collectors) for real-time network health and performance metrics.

  • Collaborate with platform, orchestration, and product engineering teams to optimize RDMA performance, PFC/ECN behavior, and path symmetry across fabrics.

  • Implement CI/CD workflows for network configuration changes — validation, pre-checks, and rollbacks.

  • Investigate complex network behaviors across layers — flow hashing, congestion domains, ECMP, and overlay interactions.

  • Contribute to the design of next-generation GPU and AI interconnect fabrics, ensuring seamless integration into Vultr’s global network architecture.

 

Qualifications

  • Solid understanding of modern data center networking: EVPN-VXLAN, BGP, MLAG, QoS, and traffic engineering.

  • Deep familiarity with RoCEv2, RDMA transport tuning, ECN/PFC, and lossless Ethernet design.

  • Strong experience with automation frameworks like Ansible, and languages like Python, Golang, Rust, or PHP

  • Comfort working with telemetry and monitoring stacks — Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, ELK, or similar.

  • Previous experience integrating with NetBox, Nautobot, OpsMill or similar for topology and configuration source-of-truth.

  • Familiarity with CI/CD systems (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, ArgoCD) for continuous delivery of network automation.

  • Strong Linux networking background, including namespaces, netlink, and system-level debugging.

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
