  • Drive the technical vision for Infoblox's software development lifecycle and ensure best practices in coding, testing, deployment, observability, and system maintenance are embedded in our development processes.
  • Spearhead the design and execution of proof-of-concepts when exploring new technologies, tools, or design patterns, including prototyping and validating ideas that will guide strategic technology decisions.
  • Stay up to date with various data storage and retrieval methods, explaining tradeoffs and choosing the most appropriate solutions for different use cases.
  • Engage with both business stakeholders and Engineering teams to bridge the gap between technical design and business objectives.
  • Communicate complex technical concepts in a way that drives alignment and decision-making across the organization.
What you'll bring:
  • Bachelor's degree in computer science, software engineering, or a related field required. Master's degree in Computer Science preferred.
  • 20 years of industry experience in software development, with at least 5 years focused on designing and optimizing distributed systems.
  • Proficiency in Go, Java, or Python.
  • 8+ years of experience with cloud platforms, including AWS, Azure, GCP, or OCI.
  • Proven experience in system design, architecture, and guiding Engineering teams in implementing robust and scalable solutions.
  • Solid experience and knowledge of data structures and algorithms.
  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to influence and align stakeholders across different levels of the organization.
  • Outstanding knowledge of data persistence strategies and the tradeoffs between different storage and retrieval methods.
  • Preferred experience with DNS or DHCP protocols, Networking, DNS security, and design methodologies such as SOLID, Domain Driven Design, or Clean Architecture.
What success looks like:

After six months, you will...

  • Develop a solid understanding of our software architecture.
  • Clearly articulate how the major subsystems interact.
  • Meaningfully contribute to system architecture discussions and guide implementation teams.

After about a year, you will...

  • Attain a deep understanding of the systems under your responsibility.
  • Contribute to the architecture roadmap by designing and prototyping systems and features for upcoming functionality.
  • Propose changes to existing systems to meet functional and non-functional objectives.
  • Respond authoritatively to design and implementation questions within your assigned areas.
