Ori is setting a new standard for how AI worlds are built. We are the first AI Infrastructure provider with the native expertise, comprehensive capabilities, and end-to-end flexibility to support any model, team, or scale. As a fast-growing startup backed by leading investors, we value ambition, accessibility, and collaboration, and are committed to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in the field of AI. Join our close-knit, global team and help us build the future of AI infrastructure!

As a Senior DevOps & Network Automation Engineer, you’ll design, build, and scale the automation frameworks that make our infrastructure repeatable, observable, and self-healing. You’ll focus on deep networking automation — from provisioning and configuration to monitoring and optimization using modern IaC tools like Ansible, Terraform, and Python/Go-based automation frameworks.

This role blends DevOps engineering, network systems, and infrastructure reliability - perfect for someone who wants to shape how AI infrastructure is deployed and managed at scale.

• Build and maintain automated provisioning frameworks for compute, network, and storage systems using Ansible, Terraform, and related tooling.
• Develop reusable playbooks, roles, and modules to standardize infrastructure delivery and reduce manual configuration drift.
• Integrate automation workflows into CI/CD pipelines for consistent deployment of infrastructure and configuration changes.

• Design and automate Layer 2–7 network configuration and lifecycle management (routing, VLANs, EVPN/VXLAN, firewalls, load balancers, DNS, etc.).
• Develop Ansible automation for network devices and software-defined infrastructure (SDN, SR-IOV, BGP, virtual switching).
• Implement automated network validation, testing, and telemetry collection pipelines.
• Contribute to the evolution of Ori’s multi-tenant, multi-cloud network fabric.

• Contribute to the evolution of Ori’s multi-tenant, multi-cloud network fabric.
• Implement CI/CD pipelines that validate and deploy infrastructure changes safely and predictably across environments.Develop observability pipelines for infrastructure health — metrics, logs, traces — using Prometheus, Grafana, and open telemetry tools.
• Contribute to reliability engineering practices: automated rollbacks, health checks, drift detection, and self-repair logic.

• Collaborate with software engineering, platform, and product teams to design and deliver end-to-end automation across Ori’s clusters.
• Integrate infrastructure automation with Kubernetes, bare-metal provisioning, and hybrid-cloud environments.
• Maintain and evolve the operational toolchain for configuration management, monitoring, and lifecycle orchestration.

• Evaluate emerging DevOps and network automation tools, identifying opportunities for integration or migration.
• Drive standardization of infrastructure-as-code practices across the organization.
• Develop architectural and operational documentation for repeatability, auditability, and onboarding.
• Lead technical discussions and mentor engineers in automation, networking, and DevOps best practices.

• 7+ years of experience in DevOps, infrastructure automation, or network engineering roles.
• Deep hands-on experience with Ansible, Terraform, GitOps pipelines (ArgoCD, Flux, or similar).
• Strong scripting or development skills in Python, Go, or Bash for automation workflows.
• Proven expertise with networking concepts and tools - TCP/IP, BGP, DNS, VLANs, EVPN/VXLAN, SR-IOV, routing, and switching.
• Experience automating physical or virtual infrastructure across bare-metal and cloud environments (AWS, GCP, Azure).
• Solid understanding of Linux systems administration, CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, etc), and observability stacks.
• Familiarity with containerization (Docker) and Kubernetes (CNI plugins, ingress, service mesh).
• Comfort leading large-scale automation initiatives and mentoring teams in IaC principles.

• Proficiency in Kubernetes networking, CNIs, ingress controllers, and service meshes.
• Familiarity with operators, CRDs, and custom controllers for managing infrastructure state.
• Experience developing or extending Kubernetes CNIs or operators.
• Understanding of eBPF networking or programmable data planes.
• Familiarity with NVIDIA BlueField DPUs or SmartNIC offload architectures.
• Prior work in HPC, telco, or hyperscale network environments.
• Contributions to open-source network automation or cloud-native projects.

• Set the standard: Every single day, you spot opportunities to constructively shake things up.
• Inspire the change: There's no blueprint for the future. You’ll embrace challenges and change.
