SN Responsibility of / Expectations from the Role
Would be part of a team involved in developing software for a SASE solution – that involves development in SW data path, control plane understanding and a good hold on the security related infrastructure; essential as part of our cloud-native solutions in a virtualized / containerized environment.This work would involve developing and integrating features with software-based data-path based on VPP / DPDK. Security infrastructure and solutions to be developed and integrated. Experience in data center networking and developing data-plane and forwarding components is a plus.Prior experience in identifying, integrating / enhancing open-source software, for networking protocols, firewall, Secure Web Gateway, next-gen FW components is highly desirable.As an individual contributor, one should be a team player and should work in a multi-site mode along with other teams in different time zones as well. Ability to work independently with a high-level guidance is a must.
