About the Role
CHNEUR AB is building a next-generation fully automated whitebox switch platform for data centers, AI clusters, and enterprise fabrics.
We are looking for a senior Automation Platform Lead who will architect and implement our end-to-end automation stack — including ZTP, gNMI/gRPC pipelines, telemetry engines, configuration orchestration, and large-scale distributed automation services.
You will work directly with the founder to design and develop our core automation system that integrates SONiC, whitebox hardware (Edgecore, Quanta, Asterfusion), and high-performance network automation workflows.
This is a high-impact, product-building role for someone who wants to shape the automation platform from the ground up.
Key Responsibilities
1. Automation Platform Architecture
- Design the architecture of a large-scale automation system for whitebox/SONiC switches.
- Build components for ZTP, configuration pipelines, topology orchestration, state management, and distributed task execution.
2. Backend & Core System Development
- Develop high-performance backend modules using C++ / Node.js / Linux system programming.
- Build agents, controllers, schedulers, and automation engines capable of managing large switch fleets.
3. Integration with Networking Technologies
- Implement automation logic for BGP/EVPN, Fabric deployment, RoCE, telemetry, QoS, and switch configuration flows.
- Work with SONiC APIs, SAI, gNMI, and vendor SDKs.
4. Distributed System & Observability Development
- Build robust telemetry pipelines (Prometheus, exporters, event collectors).
- Ensure scalability, concurrency, and reliability across automation services.
5. Collaboration and Technical Leadership
- Work closely with networking experts to convert designs into automation workflows.
- Provide technical guidance and help establish coding standards and automation frameworks.
Required Skills & Experience:
Core Technical Background (MUST)
- 10+ years building distributed backend systems or high-performance automation platforms.
- Strong expertise in C++, Node.js, Linux internals, multi-threading, concurrency, performance optimization.
- Experience designing large-scale orchestration, agent frameworks, or automation platforms.
- Deep understanding of system-level programming (epoll, async IO, network sockets, IPC).
- Proven experience integrating multi-language systems (C++ + JS/Node + Python/Go).
Networking & Automation Knowledge(Preferable / or willing to learn)
- Experience with gRPC / gNMI / protobuf.
- Understanding of whitebox switches, SONiC, or network automation concepts (Ansible, ZTP, CI/CD).
- Familiarity with BGP/EVPN/L3 Fabric concepts is a plus (training provided).
Bonus Skills
- Experience in DevOps, CI/CD, observability, telemetry, or distributed scheduling systems.
- Startup / CTO / Architect experience highly valued.
Why Join Us
- Build a full automation product from scratch — your architecture becomes the company’s foundation.
- Work in one of Europe’s fastest-growing tech areas: Data Center Automation & Whitebox Networking.
- Very high autonomy & direct collaboration with the founder.
- Remote-friendly work environment.
- Competitive salary + performance bonus + equity options.
