Job Description

Meet the Team 

You will be a member of Cisco Nexus Dashboard Solutions team Cisco Nexus Dashboard is an excellent platform with integrated controller, orchestrator, analytics and assurance packages. Customer growth in last 2 years has been phenomenal. We work on cutting edge applications and there is ample creative liberty for developers to explore and adopt new technologies available as we adopt more AI coding suites and are developing solutions for or new AI based ethernet data centers. We have a plethora of different modules like telemetry collectors, ingestion pipelines, analytics pre and post processors, ML based engines, AI solutions, Integations for Vcenter, Slurm, openshift, Kubernetes.

Folks will get ample opportunities to problem solving in scaled, distributed performance oriented applications with these techonlogies; KAfka, ELastic, Mongo, open telemetry, Gpb, Gnmi, grpc, ML models, Nvidia tech stack in GPU servers,  golang, python software environments - you name it we have that technology adopted. We focus on problem solving for our customers who have deployed our data centers, key drivers of growth for Cisco Data centers.

Recent results tell us that our DC solutions for AI infrastructure support powered by Nvidia GPUs is growing at double digit growth numbers yoy.

• AI infrastructure demand: The rise of generative AI is creating a massive demand for high-bandwidth networking, which Cisco is positioned to supply through its AI-ready infrastructure solutions.
• Cloud repatriation: Many organizations are moving certain applications back to private data centers after cloud migrations, a trend known as "cloud repatriation".
• On-premises AI initiatives: The need to support new on-premises AI workloads is a top driver for organizations to expand their physical data center footprints.
