Python Software Engineer (Network / DDI/IPAM)

Quick Facts

• Role: Python Software Engineer focused on Network (DNS, DHCP, IPAM)

• Contract length: 12 months

• Work style: 100% onsite

Description

Design and develop software platforms for enterprise network and infrastructure management, with a focus on DNS, DHCP, and IP Address Management (DDI/IPAM). Build Python services, REST APIs, automation frameworks, and integrations that provide programmable, self-service infrastructure capabilities. Work with cross-functional networking and datacenter teams to convert manual processes into scalable, API-driven solutions.

Responsibilities

• Develop production-quality Python backend services, APIs, libraries, and automation frameworks for network/infrastructure management

• Apply modern engineering practices (code reviews, automated testing, CI/CD, version control, API design)

• Build DDI/IPAM software for automated IP allocation/reservation/discovery/reclamation and lifecycle management

• Create APIs and workflows for managing DNS records, DHCP configuration, subnets, address pools, and leases

• Integrate DDI/IPAM platforms with compute, networking, provisioning, cloud, and datacenter systems

• Implement event-driven/workflow automation for infrastructure lifecycle management

• Build reliability and observability features (monitoring, metrics, logging, health checks) and support incident response

Requirements

• Strong Python and production backend development experience

• REST API design experience and automated testing experience

• CI/CD and Git-based modern development workflows

• Strong Linux development and troubleshooting skills

• Solid networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, subnets, routing, VLANs, DNS, DHCP)

• IPAM knowledge/experience and understanding of DNS/DHCP scopes, leases, and IP lifecycle management

• Experience integrating network-management systems through APIs

• Infrastructure automation experience (e.g., Ansible, Puppet) and familiarity with CMDB/source-of-truth systems

Benefits

Build network-management capabilities consumed via APIs and self-service platforms rather than manual operations.
