We're looking for a DC Network Infrastructure Engineer to design and scale our global data center network infrastructure. This role is ideal for engineers with strong expertise in fiber infrastructure, BGP routing, DWDM/optical networking, HPC environments, and BOM development who can translate network designs into production-ready data center deployments using AutoCAD and industry best practices.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design scalable data center network infrastructure, including fiber backbone, structured cabling, optical connectivity, rack layouts, and network equipment placement.
- Develop and review network designs supporting BGP, Layer 2/Layer 3 routing, DWDM transport, and HPC environments.
- Create accurate Bills of Materials (BOMs) for network infrastructure deployments, ensuring deployment readiness and design compliance.
- Produce engineering drawings and as-built documentation using AutoCAD for network layouts, fiber routing, rack elevations, and cable pathways.
- Perform network capacity planning for fiber utilization, rack space, power, and future expansion.
- Collaborate with Network Engineering, Deployment, Operations, and Vendor teams to deliver large-scale infrastructure projects.
- Troubleshoot network infrastructure and physical connectivity issues, supporting upgrades, migrations, and new data center builds.
- Maintain engineering standards, documentation, and design artifacts while driving continuous improvements.
Required Skills:
- Strong experience designing data center network infrastructure in hyperscale, enterprise, telecom, or colocation environments.
- Deep knowledge of fiber infrastructure, structured cabling, MPO/MTP connectivity, optical distribution, and cable management.
- Hands-on experience with BGP, Layer 2/Layer 3 networking, routing, and switching technologies.
- Experience with DWDM and optical transport networks.
- Exposure to High Performance Computing (HPC) infrastructure or high-density compute environments.
- Experience creating and validating BOMs for network deployments.
- Proficiency in AutoCAD (or similar CAD tools) for infrastructure design and documentation.
- Understanding of physical data center infrastructure, including rack layouts, power, cooling, and cabling standards.
- Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience supporting hyperscale or cloud data center deployments.
- Familiarity with network automation or infrastructure lifecycle management.
- Certifications such as CCNA, CCNP, JNCIP, Autodesk Certified Professional, or equivalent.
