Network Production Engineer, Edge Networks
The Edge Network Engineering team is responsible for the design of the global IP backbone: interconnecting Meta's global Internet user community via our Points of Presence (POPs) to one another and to our data centers. The Edge Network Engineering team is also the design team for all the network infrastructure within the PoP, including the peering network infrastructure and IP aggregation platforms. All bits served to the Internet flow through the Edge network. You will be responsible for developing network designs and solutions in close collaboration with partner teams. This includes designing network topologies, selecting industry technologies and protocols, liaising with vendors on feature or product development, and choosing network products and platforms that align with our product needs. You will champion innovation by bringing new network products to life. You can bring a design from concept through to fully functional and configured lab. As a Production Engineer in the network organization at Meta, you will combine the skills of a software and network engineer, ensuring the smooth operation of our network and associated services, while paving the way for future growth. You will use data analysis to influence design decisions and leverage automation to achieve scale and velocity we need for Meta’s growing demands.
