Join our Team

About this opportunity:

An exciting opportunity for highly skilled professionals who have a solid foundation in networking and a proven track record in development of system-level infrastructure and operations/management. 

What you will do:

  • Design, develop, and unit test innovative switch and router products.
  • Collaborate within an agile team, taking on both development and unit testing responsibilities.
  • Own the end-to-end process, including feature design, coding, unit testing, support feature testing, support regression testing, and help creating automation test scripts.
  • Contribute to comprehensive documentation and play a key role in ongoing product maintenance and improvement.

The skills you bring:

To excel in this role, it would be beneficial if you have expertise in one or more of the following areas:

  • Networking & Routing Expertise:
    You bring a strong understanding of networking and distributed computing concepts, with proficiency in Layer 2/Layer 3 protocols, including BGP, ISIS, OSPF, ARP, ND, IPv6, RIB, and BFD. Your solid grasp of routing principles and client-server architecture, paired with excellent debugging and troubleshooting skills, enables you to thrive in complex networking environments.
  • Infrastructure Services (Infra):
    You have hands-on experience in designing and building system-level services, such as system logging, event handling, and health monitoring. Your expertise extends to managing configuration and system state persistence, implementing access control and authentication, and handling software/service lifecycle management. Additionally, you’re skilled in working with system-level fault detection and recovery.
  • OAM (Operations, Administration, and Maintenance):
    You are experienced in developing and integrating management interfaces (CLI, Netconf/YANG, SNMP, ENM) and supporting observability, diagnostics, and performance monitoring features. Your ability to integrate with external network or element management systems and contribute to the FCAPS (Fault, Configuration, Accounting, Performance, Security) functions strengthens your ability to manage complex systems effectively.
  • A Master’s/Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Telecommunications, or an equivalent field.
  • Strong C/C++ programming skills, particularly in software development for L2/L3 Ethernet switches or routers.
  • In-depth understanding of networking technologies and related protocols, paired with independent thinking and a quick learning ability.
