The ideal candidate has a strong grasp of ASIC/semiconductor-level design and tradeoffs and deep, hands-on expertise in scale-up networking and interconnect technologies alongside a solid understanding of traditional scale-out networking and modern network operating systems (e.g., SONiC, EOS, Junos). You should be fluent in the xPU/NIC ecosystem and competitive offerings, and conversant in emerging scale-up/interconnect standards such as ESUN, UALink (UAL), and SUE.
