About the role

NetBox Labs is seeking a Software Engineer with 5+ years of experience to join our Observability Team. Observability is a key component of network automation, and critical to our company mission to make it easier to build and manage complex networks.

This team is responsible for Network Discovery & Reconciliation, Network Observability & Monitoring, and Agents & Fleet Management. The team delivers both closed and open source software and owns projects such as Orb, Diode and pktvisor.

In this role you will bring:

  • Deep experience with idiomatic Go
  • Experience with protobuf APIs (gRPC and Connect RPC), PostgreSQL (including migrations), Redis, and RabbitMQ
  • Experience with multi-tenant services, OAuth2/OIDC, and event-driven systems, including at-least-once delivery and idempotent consumers
  • Deep knowledge of observability and instrumentation, including OpenTelemetry
  • A solid understanding of networking: devices, configuration, protocols, and layers
  • The ability to use coding agents day to day: set the constraints, review the output, and remain accountable for correctness, security, and tests
  • Great communication skills, including the ability to write technical specifications with diagrams

You will work closely with:

  • Product owners – to bring ideas to life and deliver a compelling user experience
  • The NetBox team – to create the ultimate observability tooling within NetBox
  • The platform team – to ensure seamless integration with NetBox Cloud and Enterprise
  • Community members as users and contributors to the project

It would be fantastic if you have the following experience:

  • 3+ years of experience working in a fast paced startup environment
  • MQTT or other device/IoT protocols, or gNMI
  • Kubernetes in production
  • Django, NetBox, or NetBox plugins
  • Python for tests and tooling
