Responsibilities
- Design, develop, and maintain protocol stacks for various network layers (e.g., OSI model).
- Implement transport protocols (TCP, UDP) and network protocols (IP, ICMP, ARP, etc.).
- Enhance existing network stack components (e.g., socket libraries, network drivers).
- Troubleshoot and resolve network-related issues.
- Profile and optimize network performance (latency, throughput, packet loss).
- Optimize protocol performance, scalability, and reliability.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure seamless integration of network protocols.
- Document usage guidelines, best practices, and troubleshooting tips.
- Explore emerging technologies and standards related to network protocols.
- Work closely with hardware engineers, firmware developers, and system architects.
- Participate in code reviews and contribute to architectural decisions.
