Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Agile Tech Labs is looking for multiple positions in their software engineering team focused on switch design. The roles involve leading the design and development of high-performance networking software and engaging with the open-source SONiC community while collaborating across software and hardware teams.

Responsibilities

• Design and optimize software modules, drivers, and APIs for high performance forwarding and control planes
• Define software architecture integrating SONiC with hardware infrastructure for scalability, reliability, and high availability
• Provide technical leadership and mentorship across software, hardware, and QA teams
• Engage actively with the open-source SONiC community by contributing upstream and reviewing patches
• Adopt existing firmware code and adapt it to run on new or different switch hardware platforms
• Develop, implement, debug, and optimize low-level software/firmware that directly interacts with switch hardware
• Collaborate cross-functionally across HW, FW, and SW departments to resolve technical issues and define product strategies for remote management
• Perform code reviews, monitor group-level feature progress, and maintain comprehensive documentation

Skills

• BS/MS in Computer Science or a related STEM field with 12+ years of software development experience in networking or system software
• Strong programming skills in C/C++ and/or Go
• Solid understanding of L2/L3 networking, including routing protocols (BGP, OSPF, EVPN, VXLAN), control plane infra (RIB, FIB, BFD), and network management protocols (AAA, DHCP, SNMP, sFlow)
• Experience with Broadcom (XGS), Marvel, VPP, or Linux kernel forwarding
• BS/MS in Computer Science or a related STEM field with 8+ years of software development experience
• Expertise in data structures/algorithms, L2/L3 routing/control planes (BGP, OSPF, EVPN, VXLAN, RIB, FIB)
• Experience with packet forwarding engines like Broadcom (XGS) and Marvel
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science/Engineering (Master's preferred) with a minimum of 15 years of experience in networking switch product development
• Proficient in C/C++ and Python with deep grounding in data structures, algorithms, operating system internals, and computer architecture
• In-depth understanding of packet forwarding, network operating systems (SONiC, ONL preferred), network protocols (EVPN, VXLAN, BGP, OSPF, IGMP, PIM), and hands-on experience with switching chips like Broadcom XGS
