The system supports the planning and design of more than one million miles of coax and fiber infrastructure, and integrates automation capabilities that reduce design cycle time and cost. As Comcast continues deploying some of the most advanced broadband networks in the world, Iris plays a critical role in ensuring our design and deployment teams have the tools needed to work at scale. Built on modern technologies including Unity3D, Node.js, MongoDB, and AWS, Iris demands strong architectural stewardship and engineering leadership to maintain enterprise grade performance, resiliency, and accuracy.Job Description

- 7+ years building and supporting enterprise‑scale software systems, including leadership responsibilities such as mentoring, code reviews, and architectural decision‑making
- 5+ years of hands‑on development experience with Node.js in high‑performance, distributed architectures
- 5+ years of experience designing, optimizing, and implementing solutions on MongoDB
- 3+ years of professional Python development
- Experience with Unity3D and C# for interactive client applications
- Experience integrating with GIS platforms and spatial data systems
- Strong experience establishing and using observability platforms such as ELK, Kibana, and Grafana
- Familiarity with AI‑assisted development tools, including Retrieval‑Augmented Generation (RAG), and their practical application in engineering workflows
- 7+ years of direct experience with broadband access network technologies (HFC, rPHY, EPON, DAA, DWDM) and the ability to translate domain knowledge into technical decision‑making
- Demonstrated ability to lead engineering teams through production issues, drive permanent fixes, establish operational best practices, and improve long‑term product stability
