Qualifications

  • 5-7 years of experience in designing and deploying enterprise networks
  • Strong understanding of 802.11 standards, RF propagation, and channel planning
  • Proven ability to implement network access control and segmentation strategies
  • Experience delivering networks in challenging RF environments
  • Expertise in troubleshooting using packet capture and spectrum analysis techniques
  • Habitual use of version-controlled configurations and documentation
  • Bonus: Familiarity with satellite/fixed-wireless backhaul and relevant Wi-Fi certifications

Responsibilities

  • Own the design and deployment of enterprise and wireless networks across multiple sites
  • Ensure full wireless coverage in dense environments with significant RF interference
  • Conduct predictive and on-site RF surveys, validating coverage after installation
  • Develop and maintain security protocols for construction campuses
  • Set up interim connectivity solutions before permanent network installations
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate network requirements into site designs

Benefits

  • Commitment to pay equity and transparency
  • Opportunity for autonomy and ownership in projects
  • Fast-paced work environment valuing rapid progress
  • Challenging and engaging work at the forefront of AI
Full Job Description
How We Operate
  • Extreme ownership. Full autonomy. Own things end to end often taking on scope outside your core role without being asked to get things done.
  • Velocity. We drive everything forward as fast as possible.
  • First principles. Challenge every assumption. Zero analogy thinking, no egos, the best idea wins.
  • Love of the game. The frontier of AI is the most interesting problem of our time. We put in long hours at high intensity to push the frontier forward.

The Infrastructure Team

Examples of key problems the team is working on
  • Build the networks the builders run on. Enterprise, campus, and wireless networks across gigawatt data center sites, offices, and labs: the connectivity every other team depends on to build and operate the fleet.
  • Deliver wireless in the hardest RF environment there is. Full coverage across white space packed with dense rows of liquid-cooled racks and steel, on campuses that are still active construction zones.
  • Connect sites from bare dirt to full production. Satellite backhaul on day one, enterprise-grade campus networks at turnover, one repeatable design stamped across every new site.
Role Scope
  • Own enterprise and wireless network design and deployment across data center campuses, offices, and labs as a single repeatable reference design, with configs generated and version-controlled rather than hand-drawn per site.
  • Deliver full wireless coverage in white space where the colocation landlord's obligation ends at the admin areas: dense double-wide liquid-cooled racks cause severe RF interference, and the design may need an AP on every row.
  • Run predictive and on-site RF surveys, then validate coverage after equipment install, because a hall full of racks changes the RF answer.
  • Build the security posture for active construction campuses: WPA3-class wireless, clean segmentation between production, controls, contractor, and guest traffic, and disciplined credential and SSID hygiene while hundreds of trade workers rotate through.
  • Stand up interim construction-phase connectivity, including Starlink-class satellite backhaul before terrestrial circuits land, and drive the cutover to permanent enterprise networks.
  • Coordinate with data center design, deployment, IT, and security teams so enterprise and wireless requirements land in the site design instead of being retrofitted after turnover.
What We're Looking For

The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly, tell us where you would.
  • You've designed and deployed enterprise campus networks end to end, wired and wireless, from requirements gathering through turnover to operations.
  • You know 802.11 at the fundamentals: RF propagation, channel planning, and roaming behavior, and you've run predictive and on-site RF surveys with professional survey tooling.
  • You've built NAC, segmentation, and guest and contractor access that held up under real-world abuse.
  • You've delivered networks in industrial, construction, or otherwise RF-hostile environments and adapted your designs when the environment fought back.
  • You troubleshoot from packet capture and spectrum analysis, and you can point to the trace that settled the argument.
  • Version-controlled configs and documented designs are habits for you, so the next site inherits your work without a handover meeting.
  • Bonus: Satellite or fixed-wireless backhaul experience. Wi-Fi design certifications. Enterprise routing and switching automation. Experience running networks alongside OT and BMS environments.


We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
