## About the Role

* 6+ years of experience as С\С++ Engineer
 * Strong hands-on experience with C and C++, including legacy codebases and older versions of C/C++
 * Strong understanding of Linux/Unix internals; FreeBSD/BSD experience would be a significant advantage
 * Strong networking background, including TCP/IP, UDP, and protocol/packet-level troubleshooting
 * Experience with distributed and high-performance systems, ideally systems processing significant volumes of network traffic
 * Proven experience with reverse engineering / discovery of large existing systems with limited documentation and limited knowledge transfer
 * Strong debugging and performance troubleshooting skills: memory issues, crashes, bottlenecks, network-related problems, etc
 * Upper-intermediate or higher level of English
 * Ability to go beyond reading code and systematically reconstruct the architecture: identify critical flows, component dependencies, business-critical vs. obsolete functionality, and document the acquired knowledge
 * Strong ownership mindset and ability to work autonomously
 * Experience with CORBA/RPC or similar legacy IPC/distributed communication technologies (would be a plus)
 * Experience with SIP, RTP, H323, VoIP, or real-time communications (is highly desirable)

## Description

In this role, you will contribute to a large-scale network and real-time communications monitoring platform used in carrier and enterprise environments., * Maintain and extend the C routing-and-session-detection engine, including protocol decoders for SIP and RTP/RTCP at the wire level

 * Work with the C++/CORBA management plane, including distributed-object/middleware components
 * Diagnose and resolve issues using libpcap/Wireshark captures and memory-safety tooling (AddressSanitizer, Valgrind, fuzzing)
 * Support and integrate with SBC vendors (Oracle/Acme, Sonus/Ribbon, AudioCodes, Avaya, Polycom) where applicable
 * Reconstruct and modernize builds for legacy C/C++ codebases (e.g., migrating to CMake or equivalent) and help build out CI pipelines
 * Operate and support the platform's PostgreSQL datastore
 * Collaborate across the six subsystems (C engine, C datastore, C++/CORBA management plane, Java web tier) to keep the platform stable on FreeBSD
