Key Responsibilities:

- Contribute to the development and maintenance of platform software for high-performance Ethernet switching systems.

- Work on platform subsystems including chassis/line-card services, Ethernet interfaces, optics, and hardware/software integration.

- Implement and integrate software components within JunOS or Junos Evolved, following established architectural and coding practices.

- Develop and debug low-level system software across hardware, firmware, and OS layers.

- Collaborate with senior engineers, hardware/firmware teams, and test teams to troubleshoot issues and improve system reliability and performance.

- Support root-cause analysis of integration and production issues and contribute to fixes and long-term platform hardening.

- Write clean, maintainable, and well-tested C/C++ code.

- Use AI-assisted engineering tools to accelerate design, coding, debugging, testing, and documentation while validating outputs and protecting sensitive information.

- Document implementation details, interfaces, debugging findings, and technical decisions.

Key Skills:

- Strong foundation in C/C++, including data structures, APIs, memory management, and debugging.

- Basic understanding of Linux/FreeBSD internals, operating systems, processes, threads, and concurrency.

- Strong understanding of Ethernet and basic networking/switching concepts.

- Familiarity with system-level debugging and tools such as GDB, Git, compilers, logs, and packet/networking tools.

- Understanding of hardware/software integration and interfaces such as PCIe, SPI, I2C, FPGA/CPLD.

- Ability to read hardware/firmware documentation and translate requirements into software.

- Strong problem-solving and troubleshooting skills, with an interest in debugging cross-layer system issues.

- Ability to work effectively with senior engineers and cross-functional teams.

- AI-first engineering mindset with consistent use of AI-assisted tools across problem solving, implementation, testing, debugging, and documentation.

- Strong communication skills and a habit of documenting technical decisions and findings.
