Job Details
Position Overview: Consider joining our team to write eBPF/XDP programs to filter out malicious traffic on high speeds up to 400Gbps per server and writing configuration and monitoring tools using Rust language! This includes orchestrating multiple eBPF programs, working with real traffic in constantly changing conditions, testing hypotheses in real life, and performing optimizations. With eBPF development, you will always be on the bleeding edge of technologies, and occasional upstreaming to open source projects can be required.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design, develop, and maintain XDP programs for high-speed packet filtering and processing, using C language.
- Implement and optimize Rust code to enhance companion application(s) for XDP programs.
- Collaborate with network engineers, security experts, and other software developers to integrate and deploy solutions.
- Conduct performance testing, profiling, and debugging to ensure the efficiency and stability of the codebase.
- Continuously research and stay up-to-date with the latest advancements in network security, XDP, and Rust programming.
- Document design decisions, code changes, and development processes for future reference and team collaboration.
- Participate in code reviews, providing and receiving constructive feedback to ensure code quality and best practices.
- Assist in incident response and troubleshooting related to network security events and DDoS attacks.
Proven experience in developing network applications or systems programming.
Solid knowledge of C programming language.
Strong understanding of network protocols, packet processing, and DDoS protection mechanisms.
Proficiency in Linux-based development and kernel programming.
Solid grasp of concurrent programming, memory management, and performance optimization techniques.
Experience with profiling tools and techniques to identify performance bottlenecks.
Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently and collaboratively in a team environment.
Strong communication skills and the ability to articulate complex technical concepts clearly.
