Job Description

Your Career

Our vision is a world where each day is safer and more secure than the one before. NetSec Platform combines the Internet connectivity/security you need - and delivers it everywhere you need it. Using cutting-edge public and private cloud technologies, it extends the next-generation security protection to all cloud services and to its customers regardless of whether they are on-premise, on remote networks or mobile users.

The cloud infrastructure and platform engineering (a.k.a CIPE) team helps realize that vision by supporting NetSec engineering teams(i.e. 2k+ engineers) to build software that is world-class in terms of its reliability.

As a central engineering team, the CIPE engineers work closely with the rest of engineering to build platform solutions that'd help improving efficiency across software development lifecycle. We actively seek out and gather state-of-the-art, best practices from the industry at large. Through education and advocacy, we seek to ensure that reliability is a core value of our engineering culture. We level up other engineers by sharing deep knowledge, performing proactive analysis, and improving processes, tools, and automation.

Ultimately, SRE succeeds when all engineering teams are able to build reliable software on their own. Our SRE team highly values individuals with intellectual curiosity and openness. We collaborate across the organization, helping our engineers think big and take risks while building a culture of diversity, positive energy, and blameless truth-seeking. We encourage self-starting on high-impact projects within the context of strong support and mentorship.
