At Splunk, we are surrounded by passionate people committed to delivering outstanding experiences for our customers. We care deeply about our work, our customers, having fun, and-most importantly-each other’s success.\nAre you passionate about improving developer productivity and engineering quality at scale? Would you like to help establish standards and build tools and frameworks that enable engineering teams to increase productivity, reliability, and release readiness? If this resonates with you, we would love to hear from you.\nOur Detection and Remediation team is part of the Developer Platform organization and focuses on improving the software development lifecycle across Splunk. We build tools, services, and frameworks that detect product and test issues early, isolate failures, and protect CI/CD pipelines and developers’ time from unnecessary noise.\nOur customers are internal engineering teams, repository owners, engineering managers, and platform partners operating in complex development environments. We help them identify what matters, resolve issues efficiently, and deliver reliable software.\nWe are seeking a mid-level Software Engineer to help us build and operate Python-based services, developer tooling, and cloud-native solutions that support Splunk’s broad engineering community. This role requires solid software engineering fundamentals, hands-on backend development experience, familiarity with cloud technologies, and the ability to collaborate effectively across teams.\nThe ideal candidate enjoys solving practical engineering problems, working with internal platform users, and translating quality and productivity goals into reliable technical solutions that teams can adopt.\nResponsibilities\nParticipate in the complete software development lifecycle: understand requirements, design, develop, test, automate, deploy, operate, and maintain software.\nDesign and build reliable backend services, APIs, automation tools, and data-processing pipelines.\nDevelop and operate solutions using cloud services and cloud-native technologies.\nPartner with engineering teams, repository owners, and platform teams to introduce and improve shared tooling and standards.\nContribute to technical design reviews, architecture discussions, and code reviews.\nImprove the maintainability, observability, diagnosability, performance, and reliability of the systems owned by the team.\nInvestigate and resolve issues affecting development workflows, pre-production environments, and production services.\nContribute to frameworks and standards for detecting, isolating, and remediating software and test failures.\nWrite and maintain automated tests, technical documentation, operational guidance, and runbooks.\nParticipate in a rotating on-call schedule to diagnose and resolve service and integration issues when needed.\nRequirements\nProfessional software development experience, with solid knowledge of software engineering principles and practices.\nProficiency in Python and experience building maintainable, well-tested applications or services.\nExperience developing backend services, REST APIs, automation tools, data pipelines, or internal platforms.\nHands-on experience with at least one major cloud platform, such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud Platform.\nFamiliarity with cloud technologies such as containers, serverless computing, managed services, infrastructure as code, or Kubernetes.\nExperience working with CI/CD pipelines, source control systems, automated testing, or related engineering infrastructure.\nUnderstanding of distributed-system concepts and API or service design.\nExperience writing automated tests and supporting software in production or production-like environments.\nStrong debugging and troubleshooting skills, including experience using logs, metrics, traces, and other diagnostic tools.\nAbility to write clear technical documentation.\nStrong collaboration skills and the ability to work with engineers and stakeholders across different teams.\nAbility to work independently on well-defined projects while seeking guidance and feedback when appropriate.\nExperience with developer productivity, developer platforms, software development lifecycle tooling, or engineering quality initiatives is a plus.\nWhat We Offer\nA team of highly capable and dedicated colleagues across engineering, product management, and platform organizations.\nThe opportunity to build meaningful internal systems that improve engineering quality and software delivery across Splunk.\nA collaborative and supportive environment where technical rigor, pragmatic execution, learning, and cross-team partnership matter.\nOpportunities to influence shared engineering practices and improve how software quality is measured and managed at scale.\nBalance. We want you to be successful outside of work as well. We trust our colleagues to manage their time and commitments responsibly and believe that balance helps create a positive working environment.\nFun. We want our employees to bring their best, treat others with respect, contribute to the team, and enjoy the work they do.\nWhy Cisco?\nAt Cisco, we’re revolutionizing how data and infrastructure connect and protect organizations in the AI era - and beyond.
