Network Engineer

At UpCloud, you’ll be literally building the cloud.

Sometimes, cloud technologies can be offered as a patchwork of ready-made solutions. At UpCloud, however, you'll be working with something that we've built from the ground up! Our existing infrastructure relies on commodity server hardware running open-source Linux-based systems and in-house automation developed and maintained by our own developers.

We’re on a mission to be the number #1 European cloud platform, built on performance, reliability, and trust. While data sovereignty has become a hot topic in the EU, we can proudly say that we’ve been mastering it since 2011. UpCloud’s business and infrastructure are growing with 15 existing data centers worldwide.

It shouldn’t be a surprise that in a positive growth path, as we are on, we also need new hands on deck! We are looking for a Network Engineer to join our skilled Network Operations team that knows how to deliver excellence, yet fosters an atmosphere where jokes fly just as much as completed tickets!

Our ideal match would be from a mid-level to senior Network Engineer with a technologically curious mind who strives to always keep learning new things.

In this role you will:

• Maintain and develop our production networks and related services (tooling, observability, capacity)
• Handle daily operational tasks (change management, incident management) together with the rest of the operations team and our partners, keeping our infrastructure running 24/7
• Help our customer support and the rest of the company by handling technical questions

You will need to have:

• Strong expertise in general networking fundamentals
• Strong knowledge and troubleshooting skills needed in BGP, SDN, OSPF, IPv4/IPv6, MP-BGP, EVPN, VXLAN environments
• Working knowledge of the network services required by a network to function and be manageable, such as DHCP, DNS, NTP, RADIUS, and SNMP
• Ability to handle multi-vendor products and environments
• Good awareness of building repeatable solutions (ideally scripting and automation using Python)
• Linux understanding is highly preferred
• Good documentation skills

You get to join a driven, highly motivated team committed to making a difference. We have a unique market opportunity in Europe with our strong local infrastructure because our biggest competitors are all US-based, which makes this such a captivating opportunity to learn and grow.
