Job Description

The DC Networking team at Meta is responsible for developing, deploying, and operating Meta's global data center networks. This role covers the entire network lifecycle, including hardware development, capacity planning, distributed and centralized control systems, modeling/provisioning/automation, monitoring/troubleshooting/analytics, and simulation/design/failure analysis. You'll be responsible for designing and implementing drivers (and/or Firmware) for (network) ethernet adapter functions, Transport stack for RDMA, and control functions with the host/accelerators. You'll also develop and enhance HPC collective communication and parallel computing libraries such as NCCL, RCCL, OneCCL, and MPI. You'll be challenged with debugging complex, system-level, multi-component issues that typically span across multiple layers from Kernel, and user-mode applications. This is an opportunity to work on one of the most dynamic, fast-paced networks in the world and develop innovative solutions to challenging problems.

Must have:

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or equivalent practical experience
7+ years of experience in C/C++ and Python
7+ years experience in Systems programming, TCP/IP, HTTP/HTTPS, SPDY, DNS, and load balancers
Experience with network devices (routers, switches, load balancers) and an understanding of network routing protocols

Good to have:

Experience with Linux Kernel, especially drivers and network stack
Working knowledge of transport stack particularly RDMA (RoCEv2)
Experience with Qemu, FPGA Emulation environment
Experience with parallel computing platforms such as CUDA, RoCM and OpenCL
Platform services (program, control, and monitor Optics, PHY, FPGAs, sensors, fan control, power etc), BSP/Board Support Package, Operating Systems, Kernel, Bootloader, Power Management, RTOS, Linux
