And the job of creating better internet is never done - so we’re growing! Our team is committed to building a place where people who want to make a difference can grow their careers and find their spot to belong.

Role Description

We are seeking a detail-oriented and technical Commissioning Network Engineer to execute the direct provisioning, testing, and operational validation of our growing network infrastructure. In this role, you will be responsible for translating network designs into live operational environments—working directly with routers, switches, optical gear, and firewalls.

As an L2 Commissioning Engineer, you will bridge the gap between physical installation and high-level architecture. You will perform pre-flight configuration loads, execute standardized post-deployment testing protocols, troubleshoot turn-up anomalies, and ensure clean operational handoffs to our 24/7 Network Operations Center (NOC).

In this role, you’ll:

  • Device Provisioning: Apply baseline configurations, update firmware, and initialize new network elements (routers, switches, firewalls, and optical equipment) across data centers, regional POPs, and subscriber access sites.
  • Circuit & Physical Layer Validation: Perform link integrity checks, fiber light-level checks (optical power meters/OTDR review), and RFC 2544 / EtherSAM (Y.1564) throughput testing for newly turned-up circuits.
  • Handover Documentation: Complete detailed site acceptance forms, update asset management tools (e.g., NetBox, IPAM), and document final physical and logical topologies.
  • Integration Diagnostics: Resolve immediate Level-2 commissioning failures, such as misconfigured optics, duplex/speed mismatches, incorrect VLAN assignments, or broken routing adjacencies.
  • Field Tech Guidance: Direct on-site field technicians through physical cabling checks, serial console connections, transceivers replacements, and patch panel mapping.
  • Escalation Management: Clearly document and escalate complex architectural, multi-vendor software, or upstream carrier issues to Level 3 engineers or vendor TAC teams.

At a minimum, we would like you to have:

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 2 years of experience in network operations, deployment, field engineering, or technical support (NOC/SOC).
  • Experience executing scheduled network maintenance windows and following strict change management procedures.
  • Experience with IPv4/IPv6 addressing, VLANs, LACP, Static Routing, and OSPF.
  • Practical experience staging and configuring enterprise or service-provider network gear (e.g. NX-OS, Juniper Junos, Nokia SR-OS/OLT, or Arista EOS).
  • Experience with network utilities (Ping, Traceroute, MTR) and basic ethernet/optical test sets.
  • Experience running pre-built Ansible playbooks, or Jinja2 templates for bulk provisioning and automated health checks.

It’s preferred that you have:

  • High discipline in following step-by-step method-of-procedure (MOP) documents and change control windows without taking unapproved shortcuts.
  • Clear verbal and written communication skills for coordinating with field technicians, project managers, and operational teams.
  • Willingness to work scheduled off-peak maintenance windows (typically midnight to 6:00 AM) and occasional regional travel to site locations as needed.

The US base salary range for this full-time position is between $72,100 - $116,500 + bonus + benefits. As pay varies by location, your recruiter will share more about the specific salary range for your targeted location during the hiring process.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
