What You’ll Do

This is a rare opportunity to work with one eye on the future, while staying closely rooted in delivering exciting new innovations today. You will partner with leaders across ThousandEyes to determine how best to map technology solutions to new market opportunities, and be a role model for the Engineering team in delivery and teamwork. Read on if you like the idea of rolling up your sleeves and shipping code as well as thinking through the more strategic side of product development.

What We’re Looking For

We are looking for a product-focused engineering leader to help accelerate our market-leading End User Monitoring business. We are shipping new features and scaling rapidly as we look to dominate this emerging segment. This is an opportunity for you to join a team and product and help lead it to greater things.

Here are some of the main things we are looking for:

• Data-driven mindset. We have a deep and varied data set, and need to be able to present this to customers in a simple, helpful way. You’ll be able to understand the customer need and find ways of delivering on this with our current data set, while helping shape where this evolves to in future.

• Strong technical vision. You can collaborate with and beyond the team to formulate a compelling vision for the product and technology. You have the communication skills to sell it internally and to customers, and to make sure it is represented in the team’s strategy and roadmap.

• Expert in software development. This is a partly hands-on role, so you will be excited by the opportunity to build new things. You will have many examples of successfully delivering complex enterprise software projects. We use technologies such as C++, Java, Kotlin, Kubernetes, Kafka, ElasticSearch and AWS. You’ll be comfortable using some of these to research and prototype new approaches.

• Natural collaborator. It takes a village to do anything worthwhile, and you’re happy working across Product Management, Sales Engineering and Engineering to help shape the future direction of the product line.

• Effective mentor. You have a passion to up-level the team and those around you. You are open to learning as well…nobody is an expert at everything.

• Deep knowledge of Internet technology. You’ll be happy talking TCP, IP, ICMP, UDP and HTTP, and be able to understand deeply how these play together with our technology. You’ll have a strong sense of how customers configure their networks, and of the challenges and opportunities this brings.

Minimum Qualifications

• Highly experienced Software Engineer with excellent knowledge of computer science fundamentals

• Demonstrated history of having delivered multiple large-scale Internet products

• Strong record of collaborative behaviour, mentoring and cross-functional work

• Strong knowledge of JVM languages such as Java or Kotlin, or C++

Preferred Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or similar

• Deep experience with developing and maintaining large-scale distributed production systems

• Familiar with Docker, Kubernetes and cloud technologies such as AWS 

• Experience with processing large data sets on Elasticsearch or similar data stores

• Experience with event-driven architectures (CQRS, Kafka Streams etc)

• Understanding of networking fundamentals

Cisco values the perspectives and skills that emerge from employees with diverse backgrounds. That's why Cisco is expanding the boundaries of discovering top talent by not only focusing on candidates with educational degrees and experience but also placing more emphasis on unlocking potential. We believe that everyone has something to offer and that diverse teams are better equipped to solve problems, innovate, and create a positive impact.

We encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every single qualification. Not all strong candidates will meet every single qualification. Research shows that people from underrepresented groups are more prone to experiencing imposter syndrome and doubting the strength of their candidacy. We urge you not to prematurely exclude yourself and to apply if you're interested in this work.
