and running the world's best data and AI infrastructure platform so our
customers can use deep data insights to improve their business. 

Networking Infrastructure is a core part of the platform that powers all our
data and AI products. The platform also powers key enterprise security features
used by customers across all our products to build connectivity solutions to
cloud resources and prevent data exfiltration.

You will operate at an org-wide level, setting technical direction, leading
complex cross-team initiatives, and mentoring senior engineers. You’ll work
closely with product management, operations, and partner engineering teams to
translate long-term business goals into durable, extensible networking systems.
This role requires both hands-on technical leadership and the ability to
influence architecture and execution across teams.

This is a unique opportunity for a senior technical leader who enjoys working in
ambiguous problem spaces and is motivated by solving novel, multi-cloud
distributed systems challenges at massive scale.
