Technical Ownership

  • Define platform software design for new programs and lead design and code reviews.
  • Drive root-cause analysis of cross-domain issues together with hardware engineers and Broadcom/Marvell FAEs.
  • Support EVT/DVT/PVT builds and manufacturing diagnostics, and represent the team in customer technical reviews.
  • Mentor and guide engineers on SDK, driver, and debugging practices.

Required Qualifications

  • 5+ years of embedded or system software experience, including 3+ years on network switch or server platforms.
  • Hands-on experience with at least one Ethernet switch ASIC SDK (Broadcom or Marvell).
  • Expert C programming skills; working proficiency in C++ and Python.
  • Strong Linux kernel and driver development skills: interrupts, DMA, PCIe, I2C, and concurrency.
  • Delivered platform bring-up of at least one switch or server product from EVT to mass production.
  • Solid knowledge of L2/L3 forwarding (MAC learning, VLAN, IP routing, ARP, LAG, ECMP).
  • Good English communication skills for working directly with vendors and customers.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with Broadcom Tomahawk / Trident / Jericho or Marvell Prestera / Teralynx silicon.
  • SONiC platform porting experience (device/platform packages, pmon, syncd) or ONIE.
  • PAM4 SerDes tuning and CMIS transceiver management at 400G/800G.
  • Data center / AI fabric features: RoCEv2, PFC/ECN, buffer tuning.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
