  • Implement and manage containerized services for network operations.
  • Provide feedback on architecture, design, and code to ensure software systems meet requirements.
  • Contribute to the instrumentation and optimization of communication software.

Preferred Qualifications

  • 4+ years of experience in developing software for Linux-based systems.
  • Expertise in C++, C, and/or Python.
  • Experience with GNURadio.
  • Strong knowledge of networking protocols (TCP, UDP, etc.).
  • Experience with software-defined radios (SDRs) and RF technologies.
  • Familiarity with cloud platforms and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes, etc.).
  • Proven ability to write production-quality code.
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to interact with customers and cross-functional teams effectively.
