Develop and optimize software for large-scale edge appliances. Responsibilities include system-level programming, performance optimization, and distributed systems management.
Role Overview
We are seeking a Senior Systems Software Engineer (6+ years experience) with strong expertise in Go (Golang) to build and optimize software running on large-scale edge appliances deployed in theatre networks.
The role requires deep expertise in distributed systems, system-level programming, storage, and performance optimization, especially in environments with network variability and hardware constraints.
Key ResponsibilitiesCore Development (Go & Edge Systems)- Design and develop high-performance services in Go (Golang) running on edge appliances.
- Build reliable systems for content download, validation, and duplication across devices.
- Handle intermittent connectivity, retries, and fault tolerance in real-world network conditions.
- Debug and resolve complex issues across distributed appliance environments.
- Develop software that interacts closely with OS, disk, and hardware layers.
- Optimize disk I/O, file handling, and storage utilization for large media/content files.
- Work with file systems such as XFS, ZFS, EXT4 for performance and reliability.
- Ensure system stability during OS upgrades, hardware differences, and field deployments.
- Build and maintain systems operating across a 10K+ fleet.
- Implement efficient content distribution, synchronization, and replication mechanisms.
- Ensure data consistency and integrity across distributed nodes.
- Design for scalability, observability, and remote operability of edge devices.
- Integrate appliance workflows with AWS services (S3, EC2, CloudFront, CloudWatch).
- Build efficient and reliable data transfer pipelines from cloud to edge.
- Optimize download throughput, cost, and reliability across large-scale deployments.
- Ensure secure content delivery and storage.
