We are looking for a Network Development Engineer to provide technical thought leadership in the development of our next-generation networks. As we look to the future, our networks will support an ecosystem of robotics, industrial IoT, sensors, drones, and mobile devices.

Information security and network reliability are at the core of your thought processes.

This is an office-based role in vibrant Dublin, with visa sponsorship and relocation support provided by Amazon upon offer acceptance. The team follows a follow-the-sun on-call rotation, where the on-call engineer represents the Network Reliability team during operational networking events, coordinating efforts for swift mitigation.

2. Collaborate with automation teams to design and refine tools that enhance network scalability.
3. Lead network projects in areas such as engineering, deployment, technology refresh, best practices, and optimization.
4. Troubleshoot complex networking issues, including switching, routing, interconnectivity, performance, and platform configurations, using advanced tools.
5. Provide critical network support to diagnose, mitigate, and resolve large-scale events affecting Amazon's operational sites.
6. Define and enforce network engineering standards in collaboration with global teams, ensuring compliance with best practices and security policies.
7. Drive and support innovation across all network layers, from Top-of-Rack switches to Provider Edge routers.
8. Partner with software, systems, and network engineering teams to accelerate the deployment of new technologies and ensure seamless integration.
9. Develop and enhance network automation tools to improve operational efficiency and reduce manual intervention.
10. Champion operational excellence by optimizing processes, creating robust documentation, and developing training materials for support teams.

The OpsTechIT Infrastructure Operations team has broad scope supporting multiple business units globally, from the smallest delivery stations in emerging markets, to the most advanced automated fulfillment centers in North America, Japan, Europe, India and many other locations. As a result, this group enjoys variety in both tactical and long-term strategic projects. This is a unique opportunity that will enable you to grow your skills as an engineer, have a lasting impact on Amazon's fulfillment networks for years to come.

Career Growth

We care about your career aspirations and tailor your development to your unique abilities. We want you to grow and progress in Amazon. We will facilitate your growth through an increase in scope of the projects you work on over time, and include in projects for partner teams to experience new and interesting challenges. In this role, you'll have the opportunity to work on operational readiness, software development and testing, driving operational excellence and cross-cutting initiatives among others.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

1. Bachelor's degree in CS or similar
2. Experience in network automation using Bash/shell scripting and programming preferably Python (key must requirements for the role)
3. Hands-on experience in network engineering, working with IP routing protocols, technologies, and platforms in large-scale enterprise, data center, and/or WAN environments.
4. Experience developing engineering, deployment, or operational mechanisms to support IP networks and networking systems.
5. Strong ability to collaborate within a diverse team and work effectively with a wide range of colleagues.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

1. In-depth knowledge of TCP/IP networking, IP routing, and network security architecture, including core technologies such as IP, TCP, BGP, Multicast, Firewalls, ACLs, DNS, and DHCP.
