As a Staff Network Engineer at GRAIL, you will be a hands‑on technical leader responsible for building, operating, and evolving our cloud and hybrid network infrastructure. You’ll spend a significant portion of your time designing, implementing, and troubleshooting secure, scalable, and highly available network solutions in AWS (centered on Amazon VPC), while also owning critical on‑prem and data center networking (Juniper/Aruba) and Palo Alto firewalls.
You will both execute (design, configure, implement, monitor, and debug) and provide architectural leadership, standards, and mentorship across teams. A key part of the role includes robust monitoring, logging, dashboarding, and capacity planning to ensure reliable, predictable network performance.
This is a hybrid role based in either Menlo Park, CA (moving to Sunnyvale, CA in Fall 2026) or Durham, NC. Our current flexible work arrangement policy requires that a minimum of 60%, or 24 hours, of your total work week be on-site. Your specific schedule, determined in collaboration with your manager, will align with team and business needs and could exceed the 60% requirement for the site.
Expected full time annual base pay scale for the Menlo Park / Sunnyvale, CA area is $135K-$179K. Actual base pay will consider skills, experience and location.
