Join a pioneering force in network automation!
At IP Fabric, we enable people to uncover the truth about their networks. Built by network professionals and industry experts, our innovative solutions are transforming how enterprises manage their networks. As a post-Series B company, we're expanding rapidly across Europe, the U.S., and beyond.
We are building a new engineering team to own the development and maintenance of integrations between our product and third-party platforms like ServiceNow, NetBox, and Splunk.
As the founding engineer, you will be the first team member, playing a critical role in establishing the foundations for integration development within the engineering organization.
Your initial focus will be on gaining deep knowledge of existing integrations, documenting them, and defining best practices for their maintenance. You will work closely with Solution Architects, Engineering, and Product teams to transition integrations into a structured engineering process, incorporating planning, testing, and long-term maintainability.
This is a high-impact role where you’ll help shape how integrations are built and managed, setting the stage for future team growth.
What You'll Do
- Gain & Document Knowledge: Analyze existing integrations developed by Solution Architects, document functionality, dependencies, and improvement areas.
- Standardize Processes: Define and implement engineering best practices for integration development, testing, and deployment.
- Develop & Maintain Integrations: Build new integrations and enhance existing ones, ensuring they are robust, scalable, and well-documented.
- Collaborate Across Teams: Work with Solution Architects to transition integrations into engineering, ensuring smooth handoffs and continuous improvement.
- Plan for Growth: Establish a scalable framework for integrations, enabling future team expansion and onboarding of additional engineers.
What you'll Need
- Strong Python development experience, particularly in API-based integrations.
- Experience with integration-specific mechanisms for circuit-breaking, telemetry, monitoring, etc.
- Hands-on experience with platforms like ServiceNow, NetBox, and Splunk, including their APIs.
- Familiarity with REST, GraphQL, authentication mechanisms (OAuth, API keys, SAML), and webhooks.
- Experience with software engineering best practices, including version control, testing, and CI/CD.
- Knowledge of networking concepts is a plus.
- Self-starter mentality: Comfortable working in an ambiguous environment and taking ownership of defining the path forward.
- Collaborative mindset: Ability to work with cross-functional teams and translate business needs into technical solutions. Ability to be part of a bigger group of teams and actively contribute towards producing better software together.
- Problem-solving skills: Ability to troubleshoot and optimize integrations for performance and reliability.
- 25 days of holidays + 5 flexi-days.
- Full remote or hybrid role.
- Anniversary rewards.
- Collaboration with diverse, international teams.
- A pet-friendly office at IP Pavlova.
- Complementary and yummy snacks, coffee, brew and refreshments.
- Freedom to use equipment of your choice (friendly BYOD policy)
- Regular team and company events.
Join us to experience the unique culture of a founder-led startup, where from top to bottom everyone is hands-on and has a chance to make a tangible impact on influential enterprises worldwide.

What We Do
IP Fabric’s Automated Network Assurance Platform helps companies empower their network engineers to discover, verify, and document large scale enterprise networks within minutes. IP Fabric automates network infrastructure data collection and provides predefined verifications that highlight inconsistencies, misconfigurations and issues within enterprise networks.
With experience and strength across Financial Services, Manufacturing, Logistics, Public Sector and more, we are ready to support businesses in addressing their key network management challenges with a new, analytically driven way of managing your network infrastructure.
Using a unique network model and algorithms, the system reconstructs network state and simulates actual packet flows to detect critical violations, business-impacting inefficiencies, and verifies policy compliance.
Based on graph theory of mathematics, native visualization of all network topologies and protocols provides unparalleled visibility, answering the question about how the network is running. Beautiful documentation and report outputs can be used directly as part of an existing process or managerial reporting requirements
