Job description

We’re looking for a Network Site Reliability Engineer (NetSRE) to help build and run the fundamental part of Nebius - the Network - the infrastructure everything else depends on. This is an engineering-first SRE role: you’ll set clear reliability targets, build the tooling and automation to meet them, and make the network safer to operate as we scale quickly.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Define and own reliability goals for network services and critical paths (SLIs/SLOs, availability targets, error budgets where it makes sense)
  • Drive reliability improvements across the whole network: not only services, but also site readiness, inter-site connectivity (DCI), and operational standards
  • Own incident response for your areas, lead investigations/postmortems, and turn failures into durable fixes (not repeated firefighting)
  • Build and evolve observability: actionable metrics/logs/traces, alerting, and faster debug loops during and after incidents
  • Design safer change workflows: automation, CI/CD, test/staging environments, canarying, rollbacks, and auditability for network changes
  • Work closely with network engineers and platform teams to embed operability into designs and keep operations practical and fast

Requirements

  • Strong production Linux fundamentals and a structured approach to debugging complex systems
  • Solid understanding of networking basics and how real networks fail (control plane vs data plane, latency/loss, failure domains, etc.)
  • Hands-on experience operating high-availability systems and improving them over time (not just “keeping lights on”)
  • Ability to write and maintain software/automation (Go is common for us; Python is also welcome)
  • Experience with modern infrastructure tooling (e.g., IaC, CI/CD, container platforms) and comfort automating operational workflows, * Experience with high-throughput traffic processing: load balancers, tunneling/decap, NAT64, or similar datapath-heavy systems
  • Low-level networking performance/debug background (eBPF/XDP, DPDK, perf/ftrace, kernel networking internals)
  • Experience building network-safe delivery pipelines (testing labs, staged rollouts, automated verification, drift detection)
  • Background with large-scale network observability/telemetry (e.g., routing/flow telemetry, regression detection at scale), Applicants must be authorized to work in the country in which they apply and will be required to provide proof of employment eligibility as a condition of hire.

Benefits & conditions

Build and operate Nebius’s network infrastructure: define SLIs/SLOs, improve site and inter-site reliability, lead incident response and postmortems, develop observability and alerting, automate change workflows, and collaborate with network and platform teams to embed operability. The summary above was generated by AI, We offer competitive compensation and benefits packages. Actual compensation will be determined based on job-related factors, including experience, skills, qualifications, the level at which the candidate is hired, and geographic location, consistent with applicable law. Base Compensation Range $179,500-$224,300 USD

Benefits & Perks:

  • Competitive compensation
  • Career growth and learning opportunities
  • Flexibility and ownership
  • Collaborative and innovative culture
  • Opportunity to work on impactful AI projects
  • International environment and talented teams
