Senior AV Network Engineer

• Treat Network as Code (NaC): Lead the transition toward fully automated software-defined infrastructure where all network changes are version-controlled peer-reviewed and deployed via CI/CD pipelines.
• SLO Ownership: Define monitor and own critical Service Level Objectives (SLOs) for network performance focusing on latency throughput and availability metrics that impact the AV engineering pipeline.
• Toil Reduction: Apply SRE principles to identify and automate repetitive manual tasks ensuring the team remains focused on high-value architectural improvements.
• Observability: Build and maintain advanced telemetry and monitoring stacks to provide real-time visibility into the health of hybrid interconnects and on-prem validation pools.

• Design and scale the global backbone connecting on-prem data centers test tracks and public cloud providers (primarily GCP Interconnect and potentially Azure ExpressRoute).
• Architect secure multi-tenant network segments that isolate sensitive AV intellectual property while allowing high-speed access for developer tools and automated build processes.
• Develop "infrastructure-as-code" templates to enable self-service networking for AV developers and ML researchers.

• Optimize the end-to-end data path from hardware ingestion points through the secure cloud network and into production storage/runtimes.
• Ensure the networking requirements for on-prem validation and test worker pools are met providing the low-latency high-reliability paths necessary for real-time hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulations.
• Collaborate with hardware systems teams to ensure validation pools are seamlessly integrated into the ACI cloud-native IaaS/PaaS layers.

• Implement and manage zero-trust network architectures ensuring end-to-end encryption for data in transit without sacrificing the throughput required for massive AV training sets.
• Manage "Error Budgets" for network services balancing the need for rapid feature deployment with the requirement for extreme system stability.
• Act as the final escalation point for complex network outages using professional-grade packet analysis and telemetry to resolve multi-dimensional issues across the stack.

• Recognized expert in high-performance networking (BGP EVPN VXLAN) and deep understanding of data center fabrics.
• Advanced proficiency in Cloud Networking (VPC design Shared VPCs Cloud Armor Cloud Load Balancing).
• Deep experience with SRE and Network Automation tools (Ansible Terraform Python Go) and telemetry stacks (Prometheus Grafana ELK).

• Bachelor's degree in Network Engineering Computer Science or a related field.
• 7+ years of experience in large-scale enterprise service provider networking or SRE roles.
• Professional-level certifications (e.g. CCNP/CCIE Arista ACE or Google Professional Cloud Network Engineer).
• Proven experience applying SRE principles to networking infrastructure at scale.
• Deep experience with hybrid cloud connectivity and high-throughput data ingestion for validation/test environments.

• The salary range for this role: is $172000 to $300000. The actual base salary a successful candidate will be offered within this range will vary based on factors relevant to the position.
• Bonus Potential: An incentive pay program offers payouts based on company performance job level and individual performance.
• Benefits: GM offers a variety of health and wellbeing benefit programs. Benefit options include medical dental vision Health Savings Account Flexible Spending Accounts retirement savings plan sickness and accident benefits life insurance paid vacation & holidays tuition assistance programs employee assistance program GM vehicle discounts and more.
