About this role

Network Software Engineer San Francisco | OnSite THE ROLE We're looking for a world-class Network Software Engineer to architect and build the networking foundation of the first AI-native cloud. You'll design and implement the full virtual networking stack for Blaxel's VPC-our next-generation SDN fabric optimized for agentic AI workloads. Your work will span ultra-high-performance dataplane systems (VPP, DPDK, eBPF) and the distributed control-plane and traffic services written in Rust and Go. You'll also expand our globally distributed networking suite-including our Rust-based load balancer, Rust HTTP proxies, traffic routing systems, and data plane components that already process 1.5M+ requests daily. Your mission: build a VPC that surpasses traditional clouds by an order of magnitude in throughput, latency, visibility, and security enforcement. If you're a systems-focused engineer who loves Rust, Go, networking internals, and building cloud primitives from scratch, this role is for you. WHAT YOU'LL DO You'll collaborate closely with founders and infrastructure teams to design, build, and operate Blaxel's end-to-end SDN stack. - Architect and implement the high-performance dataplane for Blaxel's VPC using VPP, DPDK, eBPF, XDP, and Rust. - Build and extend distributed control-plane systems in Go and Rust: IPAM, L2/L3 routing, topology services, ACL engines, NAT, VPC abstractions. - Develop Rust microservices running at extreme performance envelopes-sub-millisecond latency, multi-million flow tables, multi-Gbps throughput. - Extend our Rust load balancer and Rust HTTP proxies to support worldwide deployment and growing request volumes. - Operate networking workloads on bare-metal clusters with large-scale IPv6-only addressing. - Build testing, simulation, and benchmarking
