Mid/Senior Software Engineer with C - optical networks

• Get to know us better

CodiLime is a software and network engineering industry expert and the first-choice service partner for top global networking hardware providers software providers and telecoms. We create proofs-of-concept help our clients build new products nurture existing ones and provide services in production environments. Our clients include both tech startups and big players in various industries and geographic locations (US Japan Israel Europe).

While no longer a startup - we have 250 people on board and have been operating since 2011 weve kept our people-oriented culture. Our values are simple:

• Act to deliver.
• Disrupt to grow.
• Team up to win.

The goal of the project is to develop and extend networking functions in optical networks (fiber optics) with a strong focus on SFF/SFP standards (e.g. SFF-8472 SFF-8431). Engineers will implement new features in user space building on top of existing drivers strictly following detailed technical specifications.

The project involves close collaboration with a team from our client (a global leader in networking) where 3 engineers are already engaged. On our side were building a team of mid and senior-level engineers who will take ownership of implementing new features and ensuring compliance with optical networking standards.

What else you should know:

• Work is highly technical requiring a solid understanding of optical transceiver specifications diagnostic interfaces and low-level C development
• Youll work directly with specifications (SFF/SFP) and translate them into production-quality code
• Youll collaborate closely with experts on both the client and CodiLime side exchanging knowledge and driving innovation

We work on multiple interesting projects at the time so we may invite you to the interview for another project if we see that your competencies and profile are well suited for it.

As a part of the project team you will be responsible for:

• Implementing networking features for fiber-optic networks in C
• Working with SFF/SFP specifications and translating them into working code
• Programming in user space developing logic on top of existing kernel drivers
• Collaborating with client-side engineers and other team members to deliver reliable standards-compliant implementations
• Reading analyzing and applying industry specifications and technical documentation to real-world implementations

As a Software Engineer you must meet the following criteria:

• Strong knowledge of C programming
• Experience in networking ideally with optical networking (fiber SFF SFP standards)
• Ability to interpret and implement technical documentation/specifications (e.g. SFF committee specs)
• Experience with user-space development and implementing logic on top of kernel drivers
• Good command of English (B2 level or higher)

Beyond the criteria above we would appreciate the nice-to-haves:

• Knowledge of specific SFF standards (e.g. SFF-8472 SFF-8431 SFF-8024)
• Experience working with optical transceivers diagnostic monitoring interfaces or vendor-specific firmware
• Familiarity with large networking environments and device ecosystems
• Previous experience in a collaborative setup with cross-company teams
  

• Flexible working hours and approach to work: fully remotely in the office or hybrid
• Professional growth supported by internal training sessions and a training budget
• Solid onboarding with a hands-on approach to give you an easy start
• A great atmosphere among professionals who are passionate about their work
• The ability to change the project you work on
