Tier-1 employer and mid-level experience increase competition despite niche NPU/dataplane specialization.
Highly domain-specific NPU and carrier-grade forwarding expertise limits transferability across industries.
Explicit 6-10 years and mandatory C/C++, NPU, and forwarding protocol expertise imply high shortlisting strictness.
Design, develop, and optimize high-performance Layer 2 and Layer 3 forwarding features in IOS-XR platform targeting silicon-based NPUs.
Implement and optimize data plane logic including QOS, Mirroring, OAM, EVPN, VPLS, SRv6, Segment Routing, MPLS, and associated forwarding protocols.
Diagnose and resolve complex embedded software defects through debugging of logs, core dumps, and packet traces; enhance code quality using AI-assisted tools.
6-10 years of embedded software development experience in networking products.
Proficient in C/C++ for embedded systems and Python for scripting and automation.
BS/MS degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field.
Experience with carrier-grade networking OS and forwarding architectures; working knowledge of NPU data plane architectures and debugging embedded software.
Experienced in developing and optimizing forwarding protocols and features specifically for service provider network environments.
Comfortable working at the intersection of hardware/software, with ability to translate network protocol requirements into efficient NPU microcode.
Familiar with modern SDLC practices including CI/CD and utilizing AI/ML tools to improve code quality and productivity.
