Site Reliability Engineer (Network)

As a Site Reliability Engineer with strong networking skills in our Cloud Infrastructure (SRE) team, you help the team own the networks that keep Loft running: cloud networking, VPN and site-to-site connectivity, segmentation, and routing across our offices, test equipment, and ground stations. You keep them reliable, observable, and secure as we scale. You coordinate with IT on the network components that interface with the physical infrastructure used by employees. You coordinate with the Test-Infrastructure team to ensure our test equipment is securely accessible., Beyond the network, you’ll help the SRE team across its broader scope by participating in all the daily work just like a regular SRE: platform reliability and expansion, incident response, planning and user support.

• 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
• 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

• Equity, we want you to have an active role in our success
• Up to 35 days of Paid Time Off (vacations & RTT ) and flexible working hours, we want you to be at your best
• Health and life insurance, we care about your health
• Lunch Vouchers, because let’s be honest, we love food! (we even have a slack channel about it #loft-gourmand)
• Cross-office travel opportunities between San Francisco, Colorado, and Toulouse to learn from our differences
• Company and team off-sites and many other events to work & celebrate together
