I would use standardized routing policies, redundant physical paths, resilient BGP and Segment Routing design, continuous telemetry, and regularly tested failover procedures. I would also establish clear operational ownership and handoff processes with EMEA and US teams. Describe how you would balance hands-on engineering work with managing a growing team of network engineers. I would establish clear team ownership boundaries, engineering goals, and regular planning and review rituals. I would remain involved in architecture, high-risk changes, and complex incidents while delegating well-defined operational and project responsibilities. Regular coaching, documented runbooks, and automation standards would help the team scale without creating a dependency on the manager. What is your approach to investigating a high-severity network incident affecting GPU cluster connectivity? I would first stabilize customer impact by identifying the affected failure domain and applying safe mitigation or traffic rerouting. I would then use telemetry, interface and routing state, congestion metrics, ECN signals, and recent-change history to isolate the cause. After recovery, I would lead a blameless RCA with corrective actions such as configuration safeguards, monitoring improvements, capacity changes, or automation tests. How have you used automation to improve network reliability and deployment velocity? I use version-controlled infrastructure definitions, peer-reviewed changes, automated validation, and repeatable deployment pipelines. Python or Go tooling can validate intent, generate configurations, collect telemetry, and detect drift. The goal is to reduce manual variation, make changes auditable, and enable engineers to deploy consistently across sites. How would you adapt a global network architecture to APAC carrier ecosystems and local deployment realities? I would preserve global architectural principles while validating local transit options, IX presence, submarine cable dependencies, regulations, lead times, and data-center constraints. I would document deviations with clear technical rationale and align them with global architecture owners. This approach maintains consistency while ensuring that the design is practical, resilient, and cost-effective in each APAC market. Next step ## Apply now.
