Staff/Senior-Staff/Principal Engineer – Network Switch SDK QA

Eridu AI is looking for a Technical Leader for Network SDK QA to own the quality and reliability of our platform software stack and switching SDK that drives our next-generation chassis. This is a hands-on technical leadership role — you’ll define QA strategy, design test frameworks, mentor engineers, and directly validate the core SDK layer that interfaces with hardware ASICs, platform demons, and network operating systems.

Requirements

• 8+ years in software QA or validation for networking SDKs, NOS platforms, or embedded systems
• Strong understanding of networking architectures, including L2/L3 forwarding, ACLs, QoS, and multicast
• Solid experience with C/C++ API testing, Python automation, and Linux-based environments
• Familiar with hardware abstraction layers (HAL), Switch SDKs (e.g., SAI, DPDK, P4-based platforms)
• Deep debugging skills using packet captures, logs, SDK traces, and hardware counters
• Proven ability to architect test frameworks, design test plans, and drive complex system validation efforts
• Leadership experience — mentoring engineers, driving technical reviews, and managing quality deliverables
