Build and own the systems that digitally capture Lambda’s physical datacenter hardware, ensuring physical host and rack state stays accurate in our inventory source of truth

Design and implement conflict resolution and precedence logic across competing data sources (vendor manifests, on-site observation, and system-observed telemetry)

Build validation tooling that catches inventory errors before they propagate downstream

Design attestation and constraint systems that validate physical topology, cabling, rack composition, and containment, against intended logical configuration at scale

Lead the technical design of rack- and asset-level scanning workflows, including provisional-vs-verified data states, tagging/versioning of data provenance, and safe rollout of reduced-friction scanning modes

Partner cross-functionally with DC Operations, Engineering, and vendors to define what physical data needs to be captured, when, and by whom, and drive alignment on where automation should replace manual reconciliation

Monitor production health of capture and validation pipelines, hold SLAs, and drive resolution when physical/logical state drifts

Have 5+ years of engineering experience

Are fluent in Python, Go, or similar

Comfortable with APIs, distributed systems, and automation pipelines

Have owned production systems with real SLAs

Can lead technical design on medium-to-large features: take an ambiguous problem, write the doc, drive alignment, and ship
