Software Engineer- Simulation Models

Overview In this role you design, build, and refine simulation platforms that accelerate development for Cisco IOS XR and SONiC. You will create digital twins for routing and AI fabric products, and scale large distributed systems while contributing to open-source efforts. You’ll bridge software engineering with hardware-aware modeling and provide cross-team support to ensure end-to-end validation. This is a chance to shape next-generation routing platforms and impact how networks are tested at scale.
