The enterprise network is evolving. There are more applications in more places than ever before. Trends in cloud services, hybrid networks, and broad globalization are increasing the complexity of network management. Network operators need tools that help them understand what's happening in the network and provide actionable information so they can ensure the best possible experience for their end-users.
Riverbed's SteelHead appliance is also evolving. In addition to being the industry leading WAN Optimization Controller, SteelHead has a broad footprint in our customers' networks and a deep knowledge of network applications that make it an ideal platform for monitoring network performance. By continually measuring how end-users are experiencing the performance of the network SteelHead can provide insight into performance changes over time that, when combined with the centralized monitoring of SteelCentral, provides actionable information to network operators in real-time.
About this Position:
As a member of the SteelHead Performance Visibility team you'll work on bringing the vision of comprehensive network performance visibility into reality. Our team values owning our solutions top to bottom, so you'll have opportunities to work across the full stack including analyzing network protocols for end-user experience metrics, adding performance data collection to SteelHead's WAN optimization engine, designing RESTful APIs to publish performance data on SteelHead, building central data collection and analytics tooling with SteelCentral, and creating highly usable web interfaces to display aggregated performance statistics to the network operator.
What we're looking for:
To be a successful member of the team you'll need to be fearless in the face of new challenges; we're constantly tackling a wide variety of problems, but you won't hear us saying "I can't do that." You'll need to be passionate about providing a world-class user experience that makes it easy for our customers to make decisions based on the data we present. You'll need a strong analytical mindset, and a background in statistics or data science wouldn't hurt. You'll need to be a strong programmer in Python, C++ or another language. You'll also need a highly collaborative approach to solving problems, both within the team and across other teams at Riverbed.
Other skills that pique our interest are front-end web development experience, application-layer network background, experience with software testing methodologies, and experience with agile software development.
