Staff Network Engineer, App Platform

<p>Scale GP (Scale Generative AI Platform) is Scale’s enterprise AI platform, providing APIs and infrastructure for knowledge retrieval, inference, evaluation, agents, and more. We deploy SGP across AWS, Azure, and GCP, often directly into customer-controlled cloud environments across highly regulated industries including healthcare, financial services, telecom, and retail.</p> <p>As SGP has grown in scale and complexity, networking has become a critical architectural discipline of its own. Today, teams routinely encounter the same hard problems — VPC design, routing, ingress and egress, private connectivity, service exposure, address-space constraints, firewall policies, and cross-environment communication — but solve them differently depending on the deployment. We’re looking for a Senior Network Engineer to establish the architectural standards for how SGP connects to customer infrastructure and how traffic moves throughout the platform.</p> <p>You’ll own network architecture across a large and rapidly growing fleet of Kubernetes environments spanning AWS, Azure, and GCP, with many deployed inside customer-owned cloud accounts and networks that we do not control. The constraints vary significantly: a commercial deployment behind a customer-managed API gateway; a hub-and-spoke enterprise network where the customer assigns our address space; a GovCloud environment protected by default-deny firewall policies; or a fully air-gapped deployment with no external connectivity.</p> <p>The goal is not to create a bespoke network architecture for every customer. Your job is to define one clear, secure, and supportable networking model for SGP — and establish the small set of defensible variations required to operate across different clouds, customer architectures, and compliance regimes.</p> <h2><strong>What You'll Do</strong></h2> <ul> <li>Own network architecture for the SGP platform: define and enforce network standards across cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP) and cus
