Position Overview
Type: Remote / Full-time / Contract
Salary: $70 - $80/HR (based on experience)
Our client is seeking a client-facing Solutions Engineer to design, implement, and support a SaaS-based network automation platform centered around Nautobot.
This role sits at the intersection of software engineering, network automation, and customer engagement. You will work directly with clients to translate real-world network and infrastructure challenges into scalable, API-driven automation solutions. This is not a back-office developer role—you will be expected to lead technical conversations, guide customers, and deliver working solutions.
Key Responsibilities
- Serve as the primary technical advisor to clients, gathering requirements and translating them into scalable automation solutions.
- Design, build, and extend Nautobot-based SaaS solutions, including plugins, integrations, and workflows.
- Develop and integrate APIs using REST and GraphQL to connect Nautobot with external systems.
- Leverage MySQL, Redis, and Celery to support data management and asynchronous task processing.
- Implement network automation workflows using Ansible and related tools.
- Build and support CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins and Git.
- Deploy, manage, and troubleshoot solutions in Linux environments.
- Integrate security and observability tools such as HashiCorp Vault and Splunk.
- Support pre-sales activities, including demos, architecture discussions, and solution design.
- Document implementations and provide knowledge transfer to client teams.
Required Qualifications
- 4+ years of experience with Python development in production environments.
- Strong experience with Django or similar frameworks.
- Hands-on experience with Nautobot or comparable platforms such as NetBox.
- Experience working with REST APIs and/or GraphQL.
- Solid understanding of networking fundamentals (IPAM, DCIM, routing, switching).
- Experience in Linux system administration and deployment.
- Proven ability to work in client-facing or consulting environments.
