Agent guide: [/agents.md](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/agents.md). --- # Network Engineer, NetOps Infrastructure - **Company:** RingCentral, Inc. - **Location:** Belmont, CA, United States - **Experience:** Experienced - **Salary:** $129,500.0 - **Contract:** Permanent contract - **Skills:** Link Aggregation (Ethernet), Artificial Intelligence, Bash Shell, Border Gateway Protocol, Cloud Computing, Cluster Analysis, Protocol Stack, Data Centers, Linux, Internet Protocol Security (IP SEC), Multi-protocol Systems, Python (Programming Language), Log Analysis, Netconf, Routing, Packet Analyzer, Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), Ansible, TCP/IP, Tcpdump, Virtual Router Redundancy Protocols, Zabbix, Scripting, Load Balancing, System Availability, Grafana, Firewalls (Computer Science), Juniper, Iptables, Bare Metal - **Published:** August 7, 2026 - **Apply:** https://ringcentral.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/RingCentral_Careers/job/Belmont-California/Network-Engineer--NetOps-Infrastructure_R078389 ## About the Role * 3+ years running production networks - ISP, enterprise, or data center * Real depth in TCP/IP. You should be able to explain why BGP picked that path and what a packet capture is actually telling you, not just configure the feature * Routing and switching in practice: OSPF, iBGP/eBGP, VRFs, PBR, STP/RSTP, VRRP, link aggregation * Tunneling: GRE, IPIP, IPSec * Firewalls, both vendor platforms and iptables / firewall * Strong Linux, including the network stack - interfaces, routing tables, netfilter, socket state, tcpdump. This is what separates a good troubleshooter from a config engineer * Enough server-side context (bare metal, hypervisors, containers) to follow a problem past the switch port * Hands-on Juniper experience across routing, switching, and security platforms ## Description * Troubleshoot production issues end to end - from the routing table through the firewall policy down into the Linux network stack on the host * Handle the operational work that keeps five nines real: firewall access changes, patching, config reviews, capacity checks * Deliver infrastructure projects - hardware refresh and replacement, platform migrations, new DC capacity * Work directly with platform and application teams instead of handing tickets across a wall * Support Lab, Stage, and Regression alongside production, * EVPN/VXLAN, MC-LAG, ECMP, MPLS · High availability and clustering · Load balancing (A10, F5, IPVS) · Scripting for your own workflows - Bash, Python, NETCONF, PyEZ, Ansible · Cloud networking · NetBox, Zabbix, VictoriaMetrics, Grafana * You'll sit in an infrastructure team, not automation - but if you like writing scripts to make your own work easier, you'll be in good company. Working with AI We're an AI-forward engineering org, and we mean it operationally. Engineers get free access to AI assistants under our company usage policies, and we expect them to be part of your daily workflow - config review, log analysis, scripting, documentation. What we care about: * You've used AI assistants on real engineering work, not just tried them * You can scope a prompt well and iterate when the first answer is wrong * You verify before you trust. Confidently wrong output is the failure mode that matters in production. Validate against docs and lab testing * You follow data-handling policy on what goes into external tools ## Related Videos - [An Applied Introduction to eBPF with Go](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1075-an-applied-introduction-to-ebpf-with-go) - [Docker network without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1418-docker-network-without-docker) - [How Cisco embraced a DevOps culture within its network engineering team](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/99-how-cisco-embraced-a-devops-culture-within-its-network-engineering-team) - [Turning Container security up to 11 with Capabilities](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/718-turning-container-security-up-to-11-with-capabilities) - [Small, Secure, Interconnected: The next Internet Protocol](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100062-small-secure-interconnected-the-next-internet-protocol) - [Docker exec without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1094-docker-exec-without-docker) ## Related Articles - [Everything a Developer Needs to Know About MCP with Neo4j](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/604-everything-a-developer-needs-to-know-about-mcp-with-neo4j) - [Dev Digest 134 - Where pixels sing?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/477-dev-digest-134-where-pixels-sing) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [What Are The Top Skills Required For Azure Developers?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/77-what-are-the-top-skills-required-for-azure-developers) - [Best US AI Conferences for CTOs in 2026: Build vs. Buy, Vendor Evaluation, and Peer Intelligence](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/736-best-us-ai-conferences-for-ctos-in-2026-build-vs-buy-vendor-evaluation-and-peer-intelligence) - [Why Upskilling And Reskilling is Important For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/428-why-upskilling-and-reskilling-is-important-for-developers)
