Configuring and extending AI agents (MCP servers, tool bindings, prompt design) that assist network engineers with day-to-day ops.
Modelling relational data for work-item tracking, project management, and CMDB-adjacent inventory.
Owning the full lifecycle: schema migration → API → widget → agent tool → PR → prod deploy.
Debugging across the stack: platform security policies, credential vaults, DB pool exhaustion, agent tool-call failures.
Collaborating with network engineers to translate ops asks ("we need a counts page showing X Nexus, Y Pica8") into shipped features.
You’ll need to have
Bachelor’s degree or one or more years of relevant work experience.
One or more years of relevant work experience, demonstrated through one or a combination of work and/or military experience, or specialized training.
Experience in JavaScript/Node.js — async patterns, REST handler design, error handling.
Experience with AI agents / LLM tool-use patterns (MCP, function calling, agent orchestration).
Frontend fundamentals — Vue.js (or React), HTML/CSS, browser networking, state management for dashboards.
Even better if you have one or more of the following
Network engineering domain knowledge (Cisco Nexus, Pica8, Arista, NAC, VXLAN, data center refresh workflows)
Strong SQL and relational modeling — Postgres preferred; comfortable writing migrations, joins, and parameterized queries.
API design discipline — input validation, versioning, idempotency, auth, rate limiting.
Git workflow proficiency — branching, PR hygiene, disciplined commits, comfortable with staged/unstaged distinctions.
Debugging across boundaries — reading platform errors, tracing failures from UI → API → DB → external system.
Security-aware coding — credential vaults, secrets handling, least privilege, understanding prod vs non-prod boundaries.
Clear written communication — turning fuzzy asks into scoped work items; documentation others can act on.
Project management systems (PMO, epics/stories/tasks) and integrations with them.
Prior work on internal developer platforms or low-code/API-gateway tooling.
Experience with ServiceNow, CMDB, or IT asset management systems.
What Success Looks Like in Year One
You've shipped multiple end-to-end features (schema → API → UI → agent tool) that network engineers use weekly.
You've reduced manual toil for at least one recurring ops workflow.
You've extended the platform's agent capabilities so engineers can get answers conversationally instead of navigating dashboards.
