This is a senior technical leadership opportunity within a high-growth SaaS environment, focused on building and scaling resilient cloud networking infrastructure. You will architect, automate, and support large-scale network solutions across AWS, Azure, and GCP. The role combines hands-on engineering with technical leadership, roadmap development, and service ownership. You will work extensively across Kubernetes networking, firewalls, VPNs, DNS, BGP, and infrastructure as code. Your work will directly influence platform reliability, performance, security, and operational efficiency. You will also mentor engineers, shape network strategy, and help evolve a globally distributed network function. The environment encourages autonomy, innovation, critical thinking, and an automation-first approach to solving complex infrastructure challenges. Accountabilities Design, deploy, automate, and support highly scalable network infrastructure across AWS, Azure, and GCP, applying established cloud architecture and networking standards. Architect and operate firewall, VPN, DNS, BGP, TLS, routing, security group, and hybrid-cloud networking solutions, including Palo Alto, Fortinet, Check Point, and cloud-native firewall technologies. Provide network engineering leadership for production Kubernetes platforms and workloads, including Kubernetes networking, CNI implementations, ingress and gateway controllers, service discovery, DNS, and NetworkPolicy. Develop and execute network infrastructure roadmaps while participating in architecture and design reviews across the broader engineering organization. Apply an automation-first and development-oriented mindset to network operations, using infrastructure as code to reduce manual work, eliminate operational toil, and improve service reliability. Build and maintain network performance, capacity, availability, and monitoring solutions, using advanced troubleshooting techniques such as packet capture and traffic-flow analysis. Lead and support network initiatives from conception through delivery and operational ownership, ensuring projects and issues are driven to successful resolution. Help grow and mature the global network engineering function by providing technical leadership, mentoring new engineers, sharing knowledge, and contributing to team direction. Stay current with evolving networking technologies, cloud infrastructure practices, and industry developments, incorporating relevant innovations into the network strategy. Actively leverage AI tools and methodologies to improve engineering workflows, accelerate problem solving, and drive infrastructure innovation. Participate in an on-call rotation and provide operational support for critical network services when required. Travel occasionally as needed to fulfill the responsibilities of the position. Requirements Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent experience, with 10+ years of professional engineering experience; experience in an enterprise SaaS environment is highly valued. Deep expertise in enterprise networking, including firewalls, VPNs, DNS, BGP, TCP/IP, TLS, public-cloud networking, VPCs, hybrid routing, and security groups across AWS, Azure, and/or GCP. Proven experience managing and maintaining production Kubernetes environments, with advanced knowledge of Kubernetes networking and CNI implementations; experience with multiple CNI solutions is a plus. Strong understanding of ingress and gateway controller architectures, service discovery, DNS within Kubernetes, and NetworkPolicy functionality. Experience operating across both traditional data center and public-cloud environments, as well as supporting multiple Linux distributions. Strong programming or scripting capabilities in Golang, Python, Java, Ruby, or an equivalent language. Hands-on experience deploying and managing cloud network infrastructure using Terraform, CloudFormation, Chef, Ansible, Spacelift, or comparable infrastructure-as-code and configuration-management technologies. Advanced network troubleshooting skills, including packet capture analysis, traffic-flow diagnostics, and root-cause investigation. Demonstrated ability to independently own complex projects, make sound technical decisions, and drive issues through resolution. Strong problem-solving, analytical, and critical-thinking skills, with a willingness to investigate complex technical challenges in depth. Ability to provide technical leadership, influence engineering teams, mentor colleagues, and communicate effectively across collaborative environments. A strong service-ownership mindset, attention to reliability and operational excellence, and enthusiasm for continuous improvement. Comfortable working autonomously in a fast-moving environment while collaborating closely with engineering and infrastructure teams. Experience incorporating AI tools into engineering workflows and using emerging technologies to improve productivity and innovation. Benefits Annual salary range of approximately $149,000–$208,333, with the applicable range and starting compensation determined by skills, experience, and geographic location.

That number is real. WorkMundi's database shows 144,883 open engineer roles across the world. India has the most with 31,687 jobs, followed by the United States with 30,084. If you just finished reading one job ad and felt paralyzed by choice, you're not alone—but this scale is actually an advantage. It means you can afford to be selective.
Start by geography and language. The majority of engineer ads—117,837 of them—have the job posting text written in English. Use that as one filter, but remember: the ad text language tells you nothing about whether the role actually requires you to speak English day-to-day. Read the job description carefully. Then check which countries have the volume you're targeting. Singapore, Poland, and Australia round out the top five after India and the US.
Next, learn who's hiring. Accenture has posted 2,801 engineer roles. andurilindustries, speechify, and jobgether are also actively recruiting. If you're applying to one of these names, research their hiring patterns and interview style before you apply. That homework pays off.
When you interview, expect the question every engineer hears: 'Tell me about a time you had to debug a problem that wasn't in your job description.' Have a specific story ready—not a general one. Name the tools, the deadline pressure, and what you learned. Hiring managers listen for whether you see problem-solving as part of the role itself, not a favour.
