Jobs at Cisco

Lead architecture, design, and development of BIOS, BSP, kernel and user-space device drivers and diagnostics for Cisco routing products. Implement and validate drivers for FPGA and networking peripherals, develop and execute test plans, debug prototypes, and lead cross-functional technical reviews.

Lead technical development and launch of Cisco IQ Platform components (core tools, AI models, autonomous agents). Drive initiatives from conception to release, balancing internal developer and enterprise customer needs, and partner across product teams to maintain architectural integrity and maximize value consumption.

Lead product design for enterprise collaboration admin experiences: identify usability gaps, craft interaction models and prototypes, partner with cross-functional teams, use telemetry and research to improve accessibility, automation, and product outcomes, and contribute to scalable design systems.

Investigate and drive resolution of complex cloud-managed and IOS-XE/Catalyst switching issues. Triage escalations using CLI, packet captures, logs, and lab reproductions; coordinate across support, engineering, and product teams; translate findings into product quality improvements, documentation, and training.

Lead strategic public sector sales in Victoria by orchestrating complex, multi-stakeholder deals. Drive incremental and recurring revenue via SaaS/cloud, cybersecurity and observability solutions; engage C-suite, develop account strategy, negotiate contracts, integrate CRM and BI data, and collaborate cross-functionally to optimize go-to-market and customer lifecycle adoption.

Lead end-to-end execution of large, multi-year hyperscale hardware programs (custom ASICs, silicon, SoCs, optics). Establish executive governance, risk frameworks, cross-functional synchronization, and partner with hyperscale accounts to ensure delivery of performance-, cost-, and schedule-driven system products from concept through deployment.

Manage and grow a named enterprise account list in NSW, acquire new business, expand engagements, hit revenue targets, lead commercial negotiations, and maintain accurate Salesforce pipeline and forecasting while collaborating with technical, partner, and Cisco teams.

Drive new business and expansion across named NSW enterprise accounts for Splunk/Cisco offerings. Meet quarterly and annual revenue targets, lead negotiations, manage forecasting and pipeline in Salesforce, collaborate with sales engineering, partners and professional services, and advise customers on security, observability, cloud migration, and operational resilience initiatives.

Lead product strategy for early-stage incubation of emerging technologies (quantum networking, cryptography, AI). Conduct market and VC analysis, define product-market fit, collaborate with research and engineering, influence senior leadership, and drive incubation from concept to enterprise-ready initiatives.

Design and implement control-path FPGA functionality for high-end routers (ASR8000): translate system requirements into RTL, run simulations, close timing, generate programming files, validate systems, debug hardware/software interactions, and coordinate across diagnostics, software, board design, manufacturing, and qualification teams to release to production.

Develop and test platform and BIOS software for next-generation data center switches. Own components, design and automate functional tests, debug hardware and memory issues, collaborate with hardware, software, and customers, and develop SDKs and platform features for high-speed networking and storage solutions.

Lead design, build, and evolve developer infrastructure and CI platforms for Meraki cloud teams. Guide complex troubleshooting, mentor engineers, drive operational excellence, define roadmaps with leadership, and champion sustainable on-call practices while supporting large-scale distributed systems and automation across developer environments.

Lead mixed-signal/analog design for silicon photonics driver ICs (modulator drivers, TIAs, CDRs, PLLs, ADC/DAC). Drive full-chip specs, design, verification, bring-up, lab validation, failure analysis, and cross-team coordination to deliver high-speed optical transceivers.

Lead product quality and reliability across multiple product families. Drive NPI quality strategy, lead investigations and corrective actions, partner with cross-functional teams, apply statistical methods and advanced analytics to identify trends, and drive DFx/FMEA and factory quality using Lean Six Sigma and Cp/CpK.

Lead architecture and implementation of Tetragon features using Go and eBPF to deliver low-overhead, kernel-aware observability and runtime security. Design high-performance data pipelines, optimize database and distributed system performance, enable fleet deployment across K8s/VMs, collaborate across Cisco teams for integrations, contribute to open-source, and participate in architecture and code reviews to produce production-ready, scalable solutions.

Build and enhance core hardware validation frameworks for Cisco Silicon One ASICs. Design and automate end-to-end validation tests across hardware, simulation, and CI/CD. Develop scalable Python/pytest test frameworks, validate networking features (packet processing, QoS, ACLs, warm boot), debug hardware/software issues, and collaborate with silicon, SDK, and architecture teams to ensure product quality.

Lead mixed-signal ASIC design for silicon photonics optical transceivers (100G–400G per lambda). Drive full-chip electrical specs, design datapath and control circuits (modulator drivers, TIAs, CDRs, PLLs, ADC/DAC), verify and debug silicon and system issues, and collaborate across architecture, digital, SI/PI and product teams through production and validation.

Lead design of scalable administrator experiences for enterprise collaboration devices. Identify usability gaps, create workflows, interaction models, and prototypes, partner cross-functionally, use user insights and telemetry to improve usability, accessibility, and product impact.

Lead quality processes across NPI, factory, and field sustaining activities. Analyze hardware quality metrics and yield, perform root cause analysis, drive continuous improvement, collaborate cross-functionally, and present quality strategies to executives to meet six sigma goals and customer expectations.

Lead cross-functional pursuit teams to capture transformational SLED opportunities >$10M. Translate technologies (AI, cybersecurity, automation) into mission outcomes, build GTM and pipeline processes, evangelize offerings at industry events, and establish new organizational capabilities across healthcare, government, and education. Collaborate with engineering, government affairs, and partners to drive long-cycle, multi-stakeholder deals and coach virtual teams to exceed sales goals.
