Responsibilities:
1. Develop software and tools to enhance automation and improve efficiency in IDC network implementation and operations, including building AI-enabled automation assistants (e.g., LLM-powered runbook execution, chat-driven tooling, and intelligent ticket/work-order automation) with appropriate safety controls and auditability.
2. Analyze network data and create software solutions by applying principles and techniques from computer science, engineering, and mathematical analysis, and leverage AI-assisted analysis (e.g., anomaly summarization, incident triage support, log/telemetry interpretation) by integrating LLMs or AI services into data pipelines and operator workflows.
3. Work closely with software development teams to plan, design and iterate network platforms, including designing and iterating AI features such as prompt flows, tool/function-calling integrations, evaluation/guardrail strategies, and feedback loops to continuously improve automation accuracy and operator experience.
