We are engineering the data path for a highly available, AI-designed security fabric that protects applications across public clouds, private data centers, and physical environments.
This team is building segmented firewalling directly in the data plane-a first-of-its-kind innovation not available elsewhere in the industry. Engineers on this team get end-to-end ownership of packet processing systems, deep exposure to DPUs (AMD), NPUs, and P4, and the opportunity to shape foundational architecture in a fast-paced, high-visibility environment.
If you want to work on the core of the data path, build something new, and learn deeply from day one-this is the place.
Your Impact
In this role, you will design, build, and optimize the data plane for Cisco Hypershield using C++, P4, and hardware offload technologies such as DPUs and NPUs. You'll work hands-on with AMD DPU specifications, packet processing pipelines, and performance-critical components from day one.
Success in this role means operating in a fast-paced model-quickly absorbing the architecture, contributing to data-plane development immediately, and delivering reliable, high-performance code with minimal hand-holding.
You will:
* Design and implement data-plane features using P4, microcode, and C++ across DPU/NPU architectures.
* Bring up hardware platforms, integrate SDKs, and debug low-level packet-processing behavior.
* Work from AMD technical specifications to define and build performant pipelines.
* Collaborate closely with internal teams (control plane, management plane, platform) to deliver end-to-end datapath functionality.
* Drive system-level architecture discussions and influence design choices for high-throughput and low-latency packet processing.
Minimum Qualifications
* Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field.
* 7+ years of experience in packet processing (e.g., DPDK, TCP reassembly, high-throughput pipelines).
* Programming experience in C/C++ and experience with P4 or microcode/U-code development.
* Experience bringing up platforms or ASICs in Linux-based environments.
* Hands-on experience building or leveraging hardware acceleration with DPUs or NPUs.
Preferred Qualifications
* Experience working with AMD DPUs, Broadcom, Marvell, or Intel data-path hardware.
* Deep understanding of P4 compiler behavior, pipeline stages, and programmable switch architecture.
* Experience with performance analysis, tuning, and optimization of high-throughput systems.
* Prior background in designing test harnesses, working with third-party SDKs, or hardware debug.
* Experience owning features end-to-end in a distributed or high-availability networking product.
