## Job description

Meta's Edge compute fleet - around 162,000 servers in more than 600 locations worldwide - is how our users reach us. Unlike most of Meta's hardware, this fleet doesn't run in our own data centers: it lives in Edge PoPs terminating user connections, and in ISP and cell-service-provider locations running caching for partner networks. The Edge Hardware team is the hardware engineering partner to the Traffic organization that owns this footprint.

We are a key partner in hardware selection and qualification, qualify firmware across every component, investigate failures in the deployed fleet, and define the detection and remediation tooling that keeps it healthy.

### The work sits directly in the user's path

a hardware fault we miss becomes a user-visible availability problem. You'd work day to day with an engineer who is being hired alongside you and with the team in Dublin who currently owns the area - and represent the Edge hardware in architecture conversations with the Traffic organization.

## Responsibilities

As a Production Systems Engineer on edge hardware, you'll set the technical direction for areas of the edge platform, mentor other engineers across the function, and drive multi-quarter initiatives that reshape how the fleet is sustained Help set the technical direction for multi-vendor enablement - provisioning and sustaining APIs, parts inventory collection, validation coverage, and remediation.

Meta's Edge fleet has run on a single server vendor for many years; the transition to multiple vendors means rebuilding deeply-held assumptions, and we need a technical leader who can help define the shape of that transition and align partners around it
- Mentor the engineer being hired alongside you, and the broader team Represent Edge hardware in architecture conversations with the traffic organization - translating hardware behavior and constraints into service-level language early, before they become late surprises
- Define and own the Edge platform's firmware qualification strategy across all current and future OEMs and platform generations (3–5 year deployment horizons)
- Drive technical workstreams that span HDRTP (Hardware Design & RTP), Traffic, and OEM engineering teams

## Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience
- 8+ years of experience in hardware server system support, troubleshooting server architecture and components, analyzing, triaging, and solving systems level issues Expertise with Linux and scripting (Python or similar)
- 4+ years of experience in changing system configurations and measuring change impact, working through full lifecycle progressions of computer systems products
- 4+ years of experience engineering innovations in support of different server system/data center products Significant experience with Python development and automation.

Extensive hands-on experience administering and troubleshooting Linux systems.

Significant experience in debugging hardware or firmware issues remotely at a fleet scale
- Track record of setting technical direction for multi-quarter programs and mentoring engineers
- 10+ years of experience in production systems engineering, hardware engineering, infrastructure engineering, or a closely related field, with demonstrated technical leadership across cross-functional initiatives Experience owning the technical architecture of initiatives that span multiple teams or organizations
