Meta is seeking a Network Engineer who will play a crucial role in supporting deployments and migrations on one of the world's largest and most complex networks. This position offers a unique opportunity to engage in projects related to the planning, implementation, and scaling of Meta's optical, backbone, and edge network. The ideal candidate will thrive in a fast-paced and constantly evolving environment, demonstrating a proactive and highly motivated approach to engineering challenges. This role requires an engineer who is not only quick to learn but also willing to challenge the status quo, bringing creative solutions to day-to-day problems. As a Network Engineer, you will be encouraged to propose new ideas, gather constructive feedback, and push forward to make these ideas a reality. In this role, you will support build activities that include design, build, configuration, and migration within a large-scale production optical network that spans ultra-long-haul terrestrial, regional metros, and subsea networks, interconnecting data centers and Point of Presence (POP) sites across North and South America. You will be responsible for planning, scheduling, and executing complex optical and backbone network migrations while maintaining standards for all builds and design packages for metro, regional, and long-haul DWDM rings and systems. Your technical leadership will be essential during deployment activities, where you will generate implementation plans and review acceptance documents provided by vendors and subcontractors deploying equipment on our network. Additionally, you will provide technical expertise to network provisioning engineers for troubleshooting out-of-service or faulty circuits and proactively contribute to documentation, automation, and evolving processes. You will drive problem management initiatives to resolve complex issues that span multiple organizations, focusing on technical infrastructure reliability, policy, security, compliance, and business strategy. Your role will also involve supporting multiple stakeholder organizations by understanding, anticipating, and influencing business outcomes, while exhibiting proactive communication and a product and customer mindset. You will help drive and align on workflow management tooling requirements, focusing on efficiency and automation roadmaps, and leverage a data-driven approach to influence business and network health metrics.
