Senior Software Engineer

• Implement and optimize Rust components in the BATS transport library and product modules (e.g., file-transfer engine, L3 tunnel), focusing on throughput/latency/CPU/memory.
• Implement new features; write unit/integration tests and maintain micro-benchmarks.
• Debug with Linux tools (logs, tcpdump/Wireshark) and basic profilers (perf, flamegraph); produce clear, reproducible findings.
• Participate in merge-request code reviews; follow CI gates; improve code quality incrementally.
• Write concise technical documentation (APIs, design notes, benchmark summaries).

• Strong Rust or Go programming on Linux; good grasp of sockets fundamentals (UDP/TCP), concurrency (threads/async), and memory/ownership.
• Comfortable with modern SDLC: Git (branching + MR), code review, CI/CD, and unit/integration testing.
• Able to read metrics/logs and apply basic performance analysis on Linux.
• Growth mindset: willing to learn transport protocol internals and system performance techniques on the job.

• Exposure to transport ideas (congestion/windowing/pacing, FEC/coding), or tools like perf, flamegraph, tcpdump/Wireshark.
• Networked application patterns (HTTP/REST, WebSocket, or RPC frameworks) and container literacy (Docker).

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Information Engineering, or a related discipline
• At least 3 years of working experience in software development

• Collaborative development in GitLab with MR-based workflow, coding standards, and continuous integration.
• Clear, pragmatic engineering practices; small team, high impact.

n-hop technologies is a leading technology company at the forefront of innovation in the field of data processing and network acceleration. We pioneered network coding theory and is the inventor of Batched Sparse Code (BATS), an efficient implementation of network coding. Our mission is to revolutionize the way data is processed, stored, and transmitted, empowering organizations to achieve unprecedented levels of performance, efficiency, and scalability. We are the winner of some significant global awards and have been granted various patents (http://www.n-hop.com): A. 2022 Claude E. Shannon Award – the highest honor in Information Theory B. 2021 IEEE Richard W. Hamming Medal (Citation: For fundamental contributions to information theory and pioneering network coding and its applications) C. 2019 Gold Medal with Congratulations from the Jury at the 47th International Exhibition of Invention of Geneva D. 2018 ACM SIGMOBILE Test-of-Time Paper Award
