# Site Reliability Engineer (Network)

- **Company:** Loft Orbital Solutions
- **Location:** Toulouse, France
- **Experience:** Experienced
- **Contract:** Permanent contract
- **Skills:** Cloud Computing, Continuous Integration, Software Debugging, Domain Name System (DNS), Intrusion Detection and Prevention, Virtual Private Networks (VPN), Network Security, Peering, Grafana, Kubernetes, Information Technology, SDN Network, Software Coding, Terraform, Docker, Vulnerability Analysis
- **Published:** September 5, 2026
- **Apply:** https://startup.jobs/site-reliability-engineer-network-loft-orbital-solutions-8782798

## About the Role

* 4-5 years in network engineering, with deep hands-on networking: routing, VPN/site-to-site, segmentation, DNS, firewalling
 * Hands-on Software-Defined Networking: comfortable managing networks programmatically / as code rather than appliance-by-appliance (everything we run is IaC)
 * Strong public-cloud networking experience, ideally GCP (VPCs, peering, hybrid connectivity)
 * Comfortable operating on a Kuburnetes platform (k8s, Docker) and occasionally writing code
 * Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform or similar) and a CI/CD-driven, GitOps workflow
 * An SRE mindset: SLOs, observability, and reducing toil through automation
 * Ability to debug connectivity issues in a complex, hybrid network environment
 * Degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
Nice to haves:

 * Network certifications (CCNP or similar)
 * Hands-on experience with GitOps frameworks (ArgoCD, FluxCD)
 * Interest or experience in FinOps and cost-optimized architectures
 * Familiarity with security practices: vulnerability scanning, threat detection, risk mitigation
 * Understanding of orchestration in resource-constrained environments, like space systems

## Description

* Participate in the design and implement Loft's network architecture; cloud networking, VPN/site-to-site, segmentation, and routing across offices, ground stations, and test equipment
 * Tighten the network security posture: segmentation, access, and connectivity hardening
 * Manage the network as code: IaC provisioning, CI/CD, and GitOps
 * Define SLOs for connectivity and ground-station availability, and own the observability (metrics, logs, tracing) that measures them; Grafana-centric stacks a plus
 * Investigate and resolve reliability issues with root-cause analysis and durable fixes; reduce operational toil through automation
 * Contribute to the SRE team's broader reliability and incident-response work, fostering the SatDevOps culture that power Loft's DNA
