Principal Network EngineerNew$372K–$550K

The opportunity

Lambda, The Superintelligence Cloud, is a leader in AI cloud infrastructure serving tens of thousands of customers. Our customers range from AI researchers to enterprises and hyperscalers.

What you'll do

  • Own the multi-year technical strategy for Lambda's network: fabric, backbone and edge — and everything in between.

  • Set the technical direction and standards other engineers design, build and operate against.

  • Own high-level technical relationships with enterprise customers, guiding mission-critical projects

  • Adept at influencing without authority across teams, and applying high: quality technical judgment under ambiguity.

  • Resolve any technical ambiguity that spans organisational boundaries: between network, hardware, platform and product teams

  • Go deep when the hardest problems demand it: into the packet path, the routing table, the vendor's firmware, the code. You are hands-on.

What they're looking for

  • Drive the technical work end to end: shape the vision, define high- and low-level design, then work alongside the teams delivering it
  • Raise the bar of the engineers around you through mentorship, design review and hiring
  • Operate what you build. You'll take part in day 2 operations and the on-call: rotation, because the fastest feedback loop between design and reality runs through the pager
  • Serve as the senior technical voice with our largest customers on: mission-critical projects, and carry what you learn there back into Lambda's roadmap
