ph3Meet the Team /h3 pIsovalent, now part of Cisco, is the company founded by the creators of Cilium and eBPF. CiscoIsovalent builds open‑source software and enterprise solutions solving networking, security, and observability needs for modern cloud native infrastructure. The flagship technologies, Cilium and Tetragon, are the choice of numerous industry‑leading, global organizations. /p pWe believe in fostering an inclusive workplace where every team member feels valued, respected, and empowered. We believe that every employee contributes to our success, and we are committed to fostering an environment where everyone can thrive. We encourage candidates from all backgrounds to apply and join us in our mission to deliver exceptional products and services. /p h3Your Impact /h3 pTetragon is a flexible, Kubernetes‑aware observability and security tool that delivers real‑time insights and enforcement. Leveraging the power of eBPF, Tetragon provides low‑overhead, in‑kernel visibility and intelligence across diverse environments. /p pAs a Technical Leader, you will be at the forefront of advancing Tetragon’s capabilities. You will guide architectural direction while staying deeply engaged in building the systems that power our platform. Your impact will span designing high‑performance data pipelines, optimizing database and distributed system performance, and ensuring massive streams of system events can be ingested, aggregated, and distilled into meaningful intelligence. /p pYou will collaborate closely with teams across Cisco, including Hypershield and Splunk, to create the integration points that transform raw data into actionable insights for enterprise security. In this role, you’ll solve some of the most complex system‑level challenges in observability and infrastructure, helping Tetragon evolve to meet the needs of modern cloud‑native environments. /p h3What you’ll do: /h3 ul liDevelop high‑quality Go (and eBPF) code for the Tetragon project. /li liDesign and implement new Tetragon features to enhance its capabilities for Runtime security detection and enforcement. /li liDesign and optimize systems for large‑scale Tetragon deployment and operation in K8s or VM platforms. /li liArchitect infrastructure that converts raw event data into intelligence streams with minimal performance overhead. /li liContribute to open‑source projects and represent Cisco Isovalent in community discussions. /li liParticipate in architecture reviews, code reviews, and documentation. /li /ul h3Minimum Qualifications /h3 ul liBachelors + 8 years of related experience, or Masters + 6 years of related experience, or PhD + 3 years of related experience. /li li10+ years of experience in systems programming (Go, C, or similar; Tetragon is primarily written in Go). /li liExperience in building system software in Go (or similar) and/or eBPF. /li liExperience in system‑level development, Linux kernel development, distributed systems, or runtime security systems. /li /ul h3Preferred Qualifications /h3 ul liKnowledge of eBPF for observability or security use cases. /li liExperience in debugging and optimization with a track record of delivering scalable systems. /li liSolid background in Linux systems and kernel‑level concepts. /li liFamiliarity with Kubernetes and cloud‑native environments. /li liExperience integrating with observability platforms (e.g., Splunk) or SaaS security/analytics systems. /li liFamiliarity with CVE workflows, vulnerability data pipelines, or security event modeling. /li liExposure to real‑time streaming/aggregation systems and database performance optimization. /li liContributions to open‑source projects in networking, observability, or distributed systems. /li liExperience working across diverse, distributed teams. /li /ul h3Why Cisco? /h3 pAt Cisco, we’re revolutionizing how data and infrastructure connect and protect organizations in the AI era – and beyond. We’ve been innovating fearlessly for 40 years to create solutions that power how humans and technology work together across the physical and digital worlds. These solutions provide customers with unparalleled security, visibility, and insights across the entire digital footprint. /p pFueled by the depth and breadth of our technology, we experiment and create meaningful solutions. Add to that our worldwide network of doers and experts, and you’ll see that the opportunities to grow and build are limitless. We work as a team, collaborating with empathy to make really big things happen on a global scale. Because our solutions are everywhere, our impact is everywhere. /p pWe are Cisco, and our power starts with you. /p /p #J-18808-Ljbffr
