Job description

In late 2024, we introduced a new infrastructure automation application called EDA. EDA is an award-winning cloud-native, scalable, extensible platform for automating the management of networks and data centers. Join a growing team of talented engineers who are building an innovative new platform for the next generation of infrastructure that drives the modern world.

We believe in Subject Matter Expertise and code ownership. We keep the process simple so that developers can focus on coding. With minimum overhead, developers interact directly with Product Managers, peer designers, and QA. If you are proud of your code, you belong on our team.

Qualifications

• Minimum Bachelor's degree in Computer/Software Engineering, Computer Science, equivalent, or better.

• Good working knowledge of golang, especially for implementing gRPC based servers.

• Familiarity with large language models, prompt engineering and MCP.

• Demonstrated track record of excellence.

• Ability to work independently and as part of a team

It would be nice if you also had:

• Background in networking

• Experience with gRPC, protobuf, Kubernetes and/or OpenAPI

• Knowledge of C/C++ is also valuable

• Aptitude and Attitude are more important than specific experience criteria. If you have strong backend software skills, you are a candidate for our team.

Responsibilities

• Work with product line managers to gather requirements and work with team members to come up with efficient software design to fit the requirements.

• Develop, unit-test, and integrate software features for EDA’s AI features.

• Work with QA engineers to trouble-shoot complex problems to find best possible resolution post root cause analysis.

• Willing to take end-to-end responsibility of a file/module (deal with new requirements, prioritize work, maintain quality, support and maintain).
