• Working on a highly distributed routing product called DNOS.
  Responsible with designing, documenting and implementing CLI and support features at a platform level (Intel VROC support, using and UEFI security keys, IPMI user management etc.).
• Tech wise: writing C, Python and Bash code for a highly distributed Docker containerized system (multi node, multi process). Debugging this environment is at times tricky, involving careful corelation of events and covering pretty diverse areas of code. All features are developed in a test driven fashion which sometimes implies mocking various HW interaction that are not available on the Virtualized test bed.
• The job also involves a lot of research of various technologies we need to support and understanding the customer use-cases and how to match them to yield a relevant outcome.

Built from scratch and lead a new team working on GSX, a new traffic observability solution. It is modular pipeline architecture using DPDK, meant to run in a variety of environments (Hardware appliance, Virtualized in the lab and in AWS Cloud)

My job as Software Development Manager involved:

• building and leading a cross-functional team of engineers (dev, dev-ops, deeply integrated with QA and PO)
• leading process creation (establishing CI/CD, PR mechanisms, code reviews, interaction with other functions and teams)
• architecture design
• researching various technologies (Docker, Kubernetes, AWS Cloud etc.)
• participate in technical decision making
• create project plans and split the work between team members
• team member technical and non technical mentoring
  - progress tracking
• designing and running the entire technical interview process

• Worked on Observer, a multi-million dollar project that captures and analyzes network traffic. Speed, scalability and data relevance are key factors here.
• Critical path C/C++, full OSI stack protocol inspection: Ethernet, VLAN QinQ, TCP quirks, Multicast, some CISCO proprietary stuff, some DPI (based on SSL or HTTP stuff), basically anything that can get into your network card.
• Started work on GSX, meant to replace Observer: Docker, DPDK, Linux, C++ plus the above.

• Designing and developing network testing applications:
• Operating systems: Linux (PC and Embedded), Windows:
  Programming languages: C, C++, C# , Java, Python
  Protocols: Wi-FI (802.11 a/b/g/n/ac), TCP/IP, application level (Layer 4-7)

Worked on an application that generated C code for driver initialization for Power PC and Starcore processors.

• Web development: MS SQL Server, ASP, ASP .NET, HTML, JavaScript, CSS
• Implemented web solutions (online stores and presentation sites)
