Distributed Systems Engineer
Location: Mountain View
Job Code: DSE
Narus is recruiting a software engineer to join our team to help improve our products in support of broader applications and higher performance. We have a high-caliber team and intellectually-stimulating environment, with software engineering challenges to match.
Narus' real-time, IP Management and Security Products are based on a distributed, multi-tier architecture. At the network layer, monitoring agents distributed across the network extract, abstract, and normalize both IP traffic and element information into network and session level events. At the application layer, Narus' IP Management and Security Products make use of a real-time, data-flow engine. This programmable engine implements flexible rules in order to extract and report events of interest to the customer.
Narus customers are typically Tier 1 and Tier 2 telecommunication service providers. Customers use the platform for IP security analysis, network health analysis, anomaly detection, forensic analysis and billing mediation.
The candidate who will fill the Distributed Systems Engineer position will initially focus on the communications infrastructure in the Narus distributed platform. The candidate will be expected to analyze, optimize and re-architect the communication protocol. The communication architecture is a key part of the Narus platform's scalability, reliability and availability.
