J’ai évolué pendant plus de 10 ans dans le domaine du construction et de la restauration. Mon emploi actuel est stable, mais je ressens un besoin profond de me réaligner avec ce qui me passionne depuis toujours : la technologie et les analyses d'affaires. Je n’ai pas encore de poste officiel en tech, mais j’ai souvent été la personne qui résoude les problèmes informatiques, met à jour les plateformes, depanne et répare toute qui ne fonctionne pas. Mon objectif serait de rejoindre une entreprise ouverte à me donner ma première vraie opportunité dans ce domaine, tout en valorisant mes compétences transférables (auto-didacte, résolution des problemes et intelligence relationel). J’ai l’intuition que je pourrais m’épanouir pleinement dans un rôle où on allie créativité et stratégie.

Description Tyto Athene is seeking a Network Automation Engineer to design and implement scalable network orchestration and automation platforms across enterprise and tactical environments. This role applies software engineering and infrastructure automation practices to networking, enabling infrastructure to be deployed, configured, validated, and maintained through code. The engineer will work across networking, platform, and infrastructure teams to automate provisioning, configuration management, policy enforcement, and operational workflows. Responsibilities: - Interpret operational requirements and constraints. - Deploy and configure virtualized routers, firewalls, load balancers, and other network functions. - Configure overlay and underlay networks in virtualized environments. - Validate connectivity, routing, segmentation, and policy enforcement across distributed systems. - Convert manual deployment procedures into parameterized and reusable automation workflows. - Automate policy enforcement, compliance validation, and certificate lifecycle management (PKI/TLS). - Implement configuration drift detection and self-healing automation. - Document automation frameworks, deployment standards, and operational procedures. Engineers in this role may encounter challenges such as: - Automating configuration across multiple network vendors and platforms. - Managing overlay and underlay networks in hybrid and virtualized environments. - Converting manual operations into automated deployment pipelines. - Diagnosing connectivity, routing, and segmentation issues in distributed systems. - Maintaining configuration consistency across large-scale infrastructure. - Supporting mission-critical environments requiring high availability and rapid recovery. Automation and Platform Integration: - Develop infrastructure automation workflows integrated with CI/CD pipelines. - Convert operational procedures into repeatable Infrastructure-as-Code deployments. - Implement API-driven automation for network device configuration and orchestration. - Integrate network automation into broader platform engineering initiatives. Monitoring and Observability: - Integrate telemetry and monitoring into automated infrastructure workflows. - Provide visibility into network performance, service health, and operational events. - Support troubleshooting and root cause analysis across distributed environments. Qualifications Required: - 3+ years of network engineering experience. - 5+ years of experience with network automation using Ansible. - Experience with CI/CD pipelines for infrastructure or networking. - Linux administration fundamentals. - Experience with network APIs and data models such as REST, NETCONF, RESTCONF, YANG, and OpenConfig. - Familiarity with distributed systems concepts such as leader election, state replication, and distributed queues. - Experience with clustering or coordination tools such as Akka, Raft, Zookeeper, or Redis. - Understanding of system resource tuning for high-performance networking. - Experience with log analysis and service troubleshooting. - Exposure to containerized network functions. - Strong troubleshooting skills. Preferred: - Experience supporting mission-critical or high-availability networks. - Experience with network monitoring, management, or observability platforms. - Experience automating software-defined radio (SDR) or tactical RF deployments. - Familiarity with RF diagnostic, spectrum analysis, or wireless troubleshooting tools. - Experience with virtualized or containerized network functions. - Experience testing automated deployments in network simulation environments (e.g., GNS3, EVE-NG, Containerlab). Environment and Technologies You May Work With: - Ansible, Terraform, Python. - Git-based workflows and CI/CD platforms (e.g., GitHub Actions). - Virtualized network functions (routers, firewalls, load balancers). - Software-defined networking (SDN) platforms and overlay/underlay architectures. - Virtual switching and routing technologies (Open vSwitch, Linux bridges, virtual routers). - TCP/IP networking, routing, segmentation, and VPN technologies. - Network APIs and data models (REST, NETCONF, RESTCONF, YANG, OpenConfig). - Containerized network functions and distributed systems technologies. - Messaging or coordination systems (Akka, Raft, Zookeeper, Redis). - Network simulation and emulation environments (GNS3, EVE-NG, Containerlab). - Telemetry, monitoring, and log analysis platforms. - Software-defined radio (SDR) and RF diagnostics tools for tactical environments.

• Identify automation opportunities • Partner with Operations, Support, and Technology to understand where manual effort and repetition create friction. • Focus on workflows that are high-volume, repeatable, and business-critical. • Help prioritize opportunities based on impact, risk, and feasibility. • Design and build automations • Build production-grade workflows using APIs, webhooks, and event-based systems. • Apply AI or LLMs for tasks such as classification, routing, summarization, or decision support, where they clearly add value. • Integrate with existing systems rather than replacing them. • Own reliability and iteration • Ensure automations are observable, testable, and maintainable. • Monitor behavior in production and improve solutions over time. • Reduce fragile one-off scripts in favor of reusable patterns.

• Design, implement, and maintain AWS infrastructure using CloudFormation and Packer. • Manage configuration and provisioning using Chef (bonus: Terraform, Ansible). • Build automation scripts—preferably in Python—to streamline operational workflows. • Implement and follow DevSecOps standards (SOC2, PCI, etc.) within deployment pipelines. • Manage and integrate tools such as Bitbucket, Jenkins, Jira, Confluence, AWS. • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines to support software delivery and database schema changes. • Support AWS database services (Aurora/RDS/MySQL) as a plus. • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure secure, reliable, and scalable operations. • Document processes, standards, and playbooks for internal knowledge sharing.
