Senior C/C++ & Python Network Engineer | Remote Position

Remotely
Full-time

As a Network Engineer, you'll spearhead the construction of intricate firewall management functions, implement penetrative packet inspection, and fine-tune network traffic systems for optimal performance. This position demands not only robust programming acumen in both Python and C/C++, but also a comprehensive mastery of network technologies and security protocols. 


Key Responsibilities

- Architect and implement firewall configuration management functions utilizing our specifications for iptables rule generation – ensuring both security and efficiency across complex environments.

- Develop sophisticated systems to automatically ascertain the topology of protected networks and their resources from SQL databases with minimal latency.

- Engineer methodologies to modify tunnel packets, thereby minimizing blocking and enhancing overall network performance metrics.

- Establish and maintain deep traffic analysis (DPI) systems to monitor, dissect, and optimize network communications across various protocols and connection types.

- Configure and oversee log collection from tunnel and firewall endpoints using rsyslog, ensuring comprehensive data capture for security analysis.

- Process and scrutinize log data using contemporary tools including Logstash 8.x, Elastic Search 8.x, and Kibana (ELK stack) for actionable insights.

- Collaborate seamlessly with DevOps teams to streamline the installation of clients and servers incorporating developed modules (Docker 24+, Docker Compose).

- Orchestrate initialization processes for network services and security systems with meticulous attention to detail and documentation.

- Perpetually enhance and optimize network performance, security, and reliability through innovative solutions and proactive monitoring.


Required Skills & Experience

- 3+ years of demonstrable commercial development experience with C/C++ and Python 3.10+ in networking technologies.

- Formidable proficiency in constructing and leveraging SQL databases with server and client APIs for high-performance applications.

- Verified experience creating network traffic management functions and comprehensive knowledge of iptables configuration and optimization techniques.

- Advanced capabilities in network traffic analysis and packet manipulation techniques – beyond surface-level understanding.

- Substantial experience with log collection systems and processing frameworks in production environments.

- Fluent comprehension of English technical documentation and effective research capabilities in English.

- Profound understanding of network security principles and implementation methodologies for enterprise-grade protection.

- Capacity to work autonomously while collaborating effectively in a distributed, remote environment.

- Exceptional problem-solving aptitude and meticulous attention to detail when debugging complex network conundrums.


Nice to Have

- Experience developing API modules in Python utilizing the Django framework for web-based interfaces.

- Proficiency with containerization technologies including Docker and Docker Compose for deployment scenarios.

- Background in access security controls (ACLs) and/or network anomaly detection systems – particularly in high-security contexts.

- Experience developing firmware or software for routers or analogous network hardware.

- Contributions to open source projects related to networking or security.

- Knowledge of advanced network protocols and tunneling technologies beyond standard implementations.

- Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines for streamlined network service deployment and maintenance.
