Software Engineer

Architect and lead delivery of Meta Compute’s cloud-native host networking platform, owning end-to-end technical direction from design through production rollout Build/modernize Kubernetes networking features integrated with Meta’s host networking stack (e.g., dataplane integration, operability, scaling characteristics) Design and implement core networking primitives: network virtualization, load balancing/service connectivity, and distributed firewalling/policy enforcement Drive time-to-market execution: define milestones, de-risk key technical choices early and deliver iterative production increments Lead broad cross-functional alignment across compute, storage, platform, security, and hardware/fabric partners—owning interfaces/contracts and end-to-end outcomes Leverage and influence open-source ecosystems: evaluate open-source building blocks, contribute improvements where needed, and ensure Meta’s solution is maintainable and operable long-term
