Network Production Engineer, Datacenter Infrastructure

Meta is seeking a Network Production Engineer to join their Datacenter Infrastructure team. This role sits at the intersection of network engineering and software development, focusing on building and maintaining Meta's massive datacenter network infrastructure. The position involves working with cutting-edge networking technologies, including Meta's own switching software (FBOSS) and networking products (Wedge and Six-pack).

The role requires a unique blend of networking expertise and software engineering skills, as you'll be responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining scalable datacenter infrastructure solutions. You'll work on everything from physical layer (fiber and optics) to distributed routing protocols like BGP, while also developing automation tools and working with Meta's custom software stack.

This is an excellent opportunity for experienced network engineers with strong programming skills who want to work at scale. You'll be part of Meta's datacenter network engineering team, solving complex problems and driving innovation in datacenter networking. The position offers competitive compensation ($177,000-$251,000/year) plus bonus, equity, and comprehensive benefits.

The ideal candidate will have at least 5 years of experience in both networking technologies (TCP/IP, BGP, fiber optics) and programming (Python, Go, Rust, or C++), along with strong Linux skills. You'll be working in Meta's headquarters in Menlo Park, contributing to the infrastructure that powers billions of users' social experiences.

This role offers the chance to work with cutting-edge technology, influence the future of networking infrastructure, and be part of a team that's constantly pushing the boundaries of what's possible in datacenter networking. If you're passionate about both networking and software engineering, and want to work on infrastructure at a massive scale, this role provides an excellent opportunity to make a significant impact.
