Nvidia Bluefield Driver Engineer (C/C++)
Get to know us better
CodiLime is a software and network engineering industry expert and the first-choice service partner for top global networking hardware providers, software providers and telecoms. We create proofs-of-concept, help our clients build new products, nurture existing ones and provide services in production environments. Our clients include both tech startups and big players in various industries and geographic locations (US, Japan, Israel, Europe).
While no longer a startup - we have 250+ people on board and have been operating since 2011 we’ve kept our people-oriented culture. Our values are simple:
Act to deliver.
Disrupt to grow.
Team up to win.
The project and the team
We develop modern network products and operating systems for leading networking equipment manufacturers. We work with cloud-native, containerized software and services, as well as with user-space and kernel-space drivers for advanced network equipment, including switches, routers, and smart network interface cards (DPU/IPU/smartNIC)
We are looking for an engineer with a strong background in networking, device drivers, hardware offloading, and OS programming for innovative projects using NVidia Bluefield DPUs
What else you should know:
We usually work using client-supplied hardware and tools
Our projects may be managed by our EMs or directly by the client
Most of our clients are based in the US, so work in the afternoon (17:00-19:00) may be required
Your role
As a part of the team, your responsibility will be to:
Research and define how to implement client requirements and ideas best
Take part in technical discussions with the team and the client
Develop software primarily using C/C++, with occasional use of other programming languages.
Create unit tests for your code, conduct code review, create documentation, and take part in other activities related to software development
Fix bugs efficiently and effectively, and find workarounds for blockers
Occasionally, take part in technical pre-sales meetings
Do we have a match?
From regular software engineer we require:
Proficiency in the C/C++ programming language
Good theoretical and practical knowledge of networking (L2, L3, L4, Ethernet)
Experience in Linux device driver programming
Theoretical and practical understanding of virtualization and containerization
Experience in working with embedded software (flashing, booting, debugging, etc.)
Proficiency with English (min B2+ CEFR)
From senior software engineers we expect one or more of the following:
Experience in developing drivers or firmware for network interface cards (NICs) - experience with Nvidia’s DPUs and/or DOCA Argus will be a great advantage
Experience with the DPDK library
Knowledge of BPF/eBPF and/or the BPF virtual machine in the Linux kernel
Knowledge of the following will be an additional advantage
Knowledge of Cilium Tetragon
Experience with Kubernetes operators and/or Kubernetes CNIs
Experience with day0/day1/day2 requirements implementation for network solutions
More reasons to join us
Flexible working hours and approach to work: fully remotely, in the office or hybrid
Professional growth supported by internal training sessions and a training budget
Solid onboarding with a hands-on approach to give you an easy start
A great atmosphere among professionals who are passionate about their work
The ability to change the project you work on
