Product Software Engineer, Early Career
San Francisco, CA

Job Description

As a Product Software Engineer at Meraki, you will focus on injecting the Meraki Magic into every device we make. You will improve our existing networking technology to enable our customers to deploy our products in new and innovative ways. You will have the opportunity to work across our stack developing software that spans from device drivers and routing code all the way up to our distributed, cloud-hosted backend.

Here are some of the projects you might find yourself working on:

* Architecting and implementing features in C/C++ to improve the reliability, simplicity, and performance of our devices
* Contribute to Click, a software defined routing framework
* Hardware accelerated switch features (i.e. packet forwarding)
* Develop new features like secure boot and safe remote upgrades

You're the kind of person we're looking for if:

* You have a technical degree or equivalent experience with a strong foundation in the fundamentals of computer science
* You are comfortable writing systems level C/C++ (or you've written your own OS!)
* You have familiarity developing and implementing computer networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, etc.)
* You have worked with Linux on embedded platforms (like robots!)
* You have an understanding of OS fundamentals and experience working in both kernel space and user space

As a software engineer early in your career, we recognize that you may still be identifying areas that you are curious about and would like to develop more depth. At Meraki, we allow engineers the opportunity to experience multiple technology areas and problem domains. Whether you have a passion for user interfaces, scalable, high-performance backend services, new platform bring-up, or prefer to work across the full stack, you can feel free to dive as deep as you want or build your own features top-to-bottom and help craft the suite of innovative products that make Meraki unique.
