We use a range of technologies, from C/C++ and Golang for performance-critical components to Python for tooling and automation.
Tasks
- Developing and supporting the scalable, high-performance SDN stack of IONOS Cloud using a range of diverse technologies.
- Designing new features and adopting new technologies (both hardware and “software defined”) on different components of the SDN infrastructure.
- Writing and debugging C/C++ and Golang/Python code across the SDN data plane and control plane, from Linux kernel networking and eBPF to Open vSwitch/OpenFlow pipelines.
- Building Python tooling and automation for testing, deploying and operating the SDN stack, and troubleshooting network issues in virtualized environments (QEMU/KVM, VirtIO).
- Cooperating with other teams to ensure the smooth integration of new SDN features with different IONOS products.
