About the Role
The data-path group provides core components for our products. We design and develop the data plane features for a large-scale distributed system – for example, forwarding information base, quality of service, security and telemetry. We gain a deep understanding of ASIC architectures and work directly with chip SDKs to configure the hardware and implement these features.
We're looking for a software engineer with a passion for software development, solid C/C++ skills, and real excitement about the way AI is changing how software gets built. Our product evolves quickly and priorities shift, so we want someone who is easy-going, flexible, energetic, and adaptable to change.
Responsibilities
- Design, develop and debug data-plane features in C/C++ for a large-scale distributed system
- Own features end to end – from design through implementation, testing and production
- Make AI tools part of your daily workflow to move faster and increase quality, and help the team discover new ways to use them
- Investigate and resolve complex issues across a multi-component system
- Collaborate closely with other engineering groups, QA and product teams
What We Offer
- Work on core technology running in some of the largest networks in the world, including AT&T and Comcast
- A team that adopts AI tools early and gives you room to experiment with them
Minimum requirements:
- At least 2 years of hands-on software development experience
- Proven experience with C or C++
- Enthusiasm for AI – you actively use AI tools in your development work and are eager to explore what they can do next
- Easy-going and flexible, comfortable with shifting priorities and quick to adapt to change
Advantages:
- BSc degree in Computer Science or Engineering
- Knowledge of or experience in networking
- Experience with Python programming

What We Do
DriveNets is a rapidly growing software company that has created a radical new way for service providers and hyperscalers to build their networking infrastructure. DriveNets Network Cloud and DriveNets Network Cloud-AI are new innovative networking solutions that apply the cloud architectural approach to high-scale networking. They bring together the scalability of standard Ethernet Clos architecture with the high performance and reliability of service provider networking, delivering optimal networking performance, scale and cost structure for service providers and hyperscalers. Founded by Ido Susan and Hillel Kobrinsky, two successful telco entrepreneurs, DriveNets Network Cloud is the leading open disaggregated networking solution based on cloud-native software running over standard white boxes. Over three funding rounds, DriveNets raised $587 million. Its solutions are used by tens of service providers globally and are in proof-of-concept and lab trials at dozens of operators and hyperscalers, consistently ranking #1 in trials for breadth of capabilities and solution quality. AT&T, the largest backbone in the US, deployed DriveNets Network Cloud across its core network, and DriveNets is currently transporting more than 52% of AT&T’s core network traffic. DriveNets is engaged with over 100 Tier-1 operators and cloud-providers on large projects in North America, Asia and Europe.
