Meet the Team

Our dedicated team members are building the future of Cisco’s core networking platforms, operating systems, and intelligent embedded infrastructure, powering global connectivity. You will join engineering teams focused on developing high-performance routing and switching architectures, low-latency telemetry, and hardware-software integration within business groups such as Cisco Networking, Security & Trust, and Supply Chain. As part of this collaborative environment, you will contribute to the evolution of next-generation distributed platforms and mission-critical network systems. Explore the opportunities at the intersection of embedded software, networking protocols, and silicon systems, helping to transform how Cisco delivers resilient, high-speed digital experiences worldwide.

Your Impact

As an Embedded Systems Software Developer Co-op, you will play a key role in advancing the architecture, scalability, and performance of Cisco’s core networking systems and platforms. You will partner with senior engineers and domain experts to tackle complex technical challenges, optimize system-level workflows, and build resilient solutions for next-generation platforms. Apply your training and problem-solving skills to evaluate architectural trade-offs, implement robust software components, and improve overall system efficiency. Success in this role means driving meaningful technical outcomes, contributing to high-impact projects, and helping build scalable technologies that connect enterprises and service providers worldwide.

Minimum Qualifications

Currently enrolled in a graduate degree program
Qualifying education should be in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Software Engineering, or a related field.

Practical experience developing in Linux environments, utilizing debugging tools (GDB, Valgrind) and Git version control.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with Linux kernel programming, RTOS, embedded device drivers, or packet processing datapaths (e.g., DPDK, XDP, eBPF).
Knowledge of advanced routing protocols (BGP, IS-IS, Segment Routing, MPLS) or network telemetry and performance measurement architectures.
Proficiency in Python or Bash for developing automated regression suites, continuous integration pipelines (Jenkins), and performance profiling.
Exposure to hardware interfaces (PCIe, I2C, SPI), FPGA development, or embedded security protocols (DevSecOps, secure boot).
