At Cisco Meraki, we know that technology can connect, empower, and drive us. Our mission is to simplify technology so our customers can focus on what's most meaningful to them. The MV Cameras team is a small, fast-moving team building security cameras with a unique edge AI and storage architecture. The Meraki MV system is powerful, secure, and does not rely on any on-premise servers, making it easy to deploy and scale from one to hundreds of cameras per site. Our cameras are not only used for security but also AI-enabled analytics. MV cameras blend the best of cloud and IoT technology, making it simpler and easier for customers to use the camera as a sensor!
A Senior Software Engineer on the MV Cameras team takes the developing and delivering new cameras to market. Our device firmware is built on Linux and open-source software. We work individually and in small teams to release several new MV cameras each year.

- Define next generation architecture, mentor engineers and delegate development to others where required
- Own projects from block-diagram concepts, to prototype boards that don’t boot, all the way to shipping products
- Collaborate with Product Management, Quality Assurance teams and Manufacturing Partners to develop secure, reliable, and scalable manufacturing processes
- Collaborate with Hardware Engineering team on vendor/chipset selection and influence high-level architecture for new Meraki cameras
- Develop, port, and debug Linux device drivers
- Collaborate with other Engineers across product teams to continually improve our firmware design, development, and deployment practices
- Be a part of the leadership of the larger MV team: weighing in on development priorities, projects going on across the team, etc.
You are an ideal candidate if you:
- 8+ years of experience in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience
- Have 8+ years advanced programming skills in C and/or C++ for operating system kernel & systems development
- Have significant experience in leading the technical planning, specification, estimation, and execution of embedded firmware development for NPI
- Have expert knowledge of embedded systems development concepts, including cross-platform development and build tools (GNU toolchain, OpenWRT, buildroot, Yocto), bootloader (U-Boot), kernel configuration, device drivers, device trees
- Have strong systems and networking foundational knowledge (systems architecture, memory hierarchy, storage subsystems, LAN, and routing)
- Know common bus protocols like I2C, SPI, PCIe, USB and MDIO
- Are comfortable using source-level debuggers to solve problems at all layers of the stack as well as network protocol analyzers, logic analyzers, and hardware debuggers
- Have experience reading schematics and data sheets
Bonus points for:

We encourage you to drop us a line even if you don’t have all the points above. That's a lot of different areas of responsibility! We will help you pick them up because we believe that great engineers come from diverse backgrounds.

For non-sales roles the hiring ranges reflect base salary only; employees are also eligible to receive annual bonuses. Hiring ranges for sales positions include base and incentive compensation target. Individual pay is determined by the candidate's hiring location and additional factors, including but not limited to skillset, experience, and relevant education, certifications, or training. Applicants may not be eligible for the full salary range based on their U.S. or Canada hiring location.

Exempt new hires participate in Cisco’s flexible Vacation Time Off policy, which does not place a defined limit on how much vacation time eligible employees may use, but is subject to availability and some business limitations. All new hires are eligible for Sick Time Off subject to Cisco’s Sick Time Off Policy and will have eighty (80) hours of sick time off provided on their hire date and on January 1st of each year thereafter.

Employees on sales plans earn performance-based incentive pay on top of their base salary, which is split between quota and non-quota components. For quota-based incentive pay, Cisco typically pays as follows:
.75% of incentive target for each 1% of revenue attainment up to 50% of quota;
1.5% of incentive target for each 1% of attainment between 50% and 75%;
1% of incentive target for each 1% of attainment between 75% and 100%; and once performance exceeds 100% attainment, incentive rates are at or above 1% for each 1% of attainment with no cap on incentive compensation.
For non-quota-based sales performance elements such as strategic sales objectives, Cisco may pay up to 125% of target. Cisco sales plans do not have a minimum threshold of performance for sales incentive compensation to be paid.
