This posting is open to internal candidates only; external applicants will not be considered.

About Organization

The Next Generation Advanced Research department is at the forefront of innovation, dedicated to developing advanced cloud-AI-native architectures and enabling technologies in-house. Our mission is to leverage the power of Generative and Discriminative AI/ML, ️ Kubernetes, and eBPF to revolutionize how applications perform on modern Telecom networks and ️ data centres, ultimately increasing revenues, enhancing productivity, mitigating risks, and improving overall performance. We are a highly diverse and intellectually curious team, fostering a culture of open exploration, rigorous research, and collaborative problem-solving. This role offers the unique opportunity to contribute to foundational technologies that will shape the future of AI-driven infrastructure powered by eBPF.

Job Duties

The Senior Software Engineer will be a pivotal member of our Advanced Research team, focusing on the design and development of cutting-edge cloud-native distributed systems and modern Telco infrastructure for our platforms and experimental prototypes. This role requires deep expertise in complex distributed system design, a strong understanding of modern networking, and the ability to rapidly prototype and iterate on novel concepts.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead the design and implementation of highly scalable and resilient cloud-native distributed systems for internal tools, research prototypes, and proof-of-concept applications demonstrating the capabilities of our cloud-AI-native architectures, Generative/Discriminative AI/ML models, Kubernetes, and eBPF technologies.

• Apply advanced coding expertise, with a strong preference for fluency in Golang, to develop robust and efficient software solutions.

• Leverage in-depth knowledge of Linux Networking to optimize system performance and troubleshoot complex network-related issues.

• Utilize Containerization (Docker) and Orchestration technologies (Kubernetes) to deploy, manage, and scale applications effectively.

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define technical requirements, architectural designs, and implementation strategies.

• Conduct rigorous testing, performance tuning, and debugging to ensure the reliability and efficiency of developed systems.

• Contribute to the continuous improvement of our development processes and best practices.
