High Tech Genesis is looking for a Golang Software Developer to add features to an existing telecom-based application. The application is currently offered to internal customers of a large multinational telecom networking software and equipment company. It is used by thousands of people around the world.
This job is a great opportunity to work with some of the smartest people in the world in networking technologies. It presents a fantastic learning opportunity that will take your career to the next level.
Required Skills and Experience:
• 8+ years of software development experience
• Experience working with Agile development processes
• Engineer with experience in distributed systems.
o Need to understand challenges with lost, delayed, or duplicated messages and how code needs to be written to deal with that.
o Experience in writing appropriate test to discover corner cases and performance bottlenecks.
• Experience understanding memory and performance and reliability consequences on choosing a given API call (sync vs async) or a data structure over another
• Reasonable degree of autonomy. Should be able to own a feature, work along other team members on the high-level design, and successfully drive the feature to completion, including data migration, testing and deploy to green and brownfield deployments
• Need to have experience in a low-level language (for example C). Current tech stack of Resource Services is 50% Golang 50% Python, but only Python experience is NOT enough. A seasoned C programmer can learn Go in very short time, and experience with a low-level language is needed to understand the implication on coding in a particular style: Memory allocation, efficiency, etc.
• Understanding of how network devices operate. While a deep knowledge of networking is not required, the candidate should understand the basic operation of a network device. How images are loaded, difference between console and VTY access, difference between management ports and data ports, difference between Line Cards / RP, Chassis, etc.
• Intermediate knowledge of SQL / Cypher database queries
• Knowledge of REST and gRPC APIs: OpenAPI and protocol buffers
• The engineer should have a 'can do' attitude. Should understand how different systems and technologies can operate together to produce the correct outcome. Should write small scripts/tools to improve the workflow as needed
• Able to contribute to code reviews looking for potential/hidden problems in the code. Look for corner cases / "what if" scenarios on the code under review.
Bonus skills:
• Experience writing production quality level code and test cases in Golang
• Practical knowledge about Kubernetes, building container images (docker, kaniko, ko)
• Experience with brokers or other pubsub technologies: Knative, kafka, Redis streams, etc.
• While most of the Kubernetes related details are mostly abstracted from the developers, knowledge of Kubernetes helps understanding the product
• Experience building network services in NSO (YANG models, callbacks)
• Experience building network monitoring services (SNMP, Netconf, Restconf)
• Experience building VPN network services using EVPN, QinQ or other VPN/tunneling technologies
• Knowledge of OpenTelemetry
• Experience writing K6 performance validation tests
