Crusoe is hiring a Software Engineer, Networking to build the software layer responsible for the 'Closed-Loop Automation' of our global fabric. You will build systems that ingest billions of telemetry events and programmatically steer traffic in real-time to optimize performance and availability, accelerating the abundance of energy and intelligence.
What You'll Do
- Design and implement high-throughput data ingestion services using gNMI, gRPC, and P4-Runtime.
- Write algorithms and controllers that interface with Segment Routing (SRv6/SR-MPLS) to dynamically reroute traffic based on real-time link health.
- Architect and maintain structured data models using YANG, ensuring a 'Single Source of Truth' for network state.
- Develop internal RESTful and gRPC APIs that allow other services to query network topology and performance metrics programmatically.
- Optimize Go/Python services to handle high-cardinality time-series data without introducing latency into the management loop.
What We're Looking For
- Professional experience in Go (Golang) or C++.
- Deep understanding of the TCP/IP stack, specifically how the Management Plane interacts with the Control Plane (BGP, IS-IS) and the Forwarding Plane.
- Hands-on experience building or extending TSDBs (Prometheus, VictoriaMetrics, or InfluxDB) and using OpenTelemetry.
- Experience deploying management microservices via Kubernetes, using Kafka or RabbitMQ for message bus architectures.
Nice to Have
- Contributions to open-source SDN projects (e.g., SONiC, ONOS, Stratum, or P4).
- Experience with eBPF for deep packet inspection and kernel-level observability.
- Familiarity with Network Verification tools (e.g., Batfish or Forward Networks).
Technical Stack
- gNMI, gRPC, P4-Runtime, Segment Routing (SRv6/SR-MPLS), YANG
- Go, Python
- Prometheus, VictoriaMetrics, InfluxDB, OpenTelemetry
- Kubernetes, Kafka, RabbitMQ
- eBPF
