The Opportunity   The future of networking is autonomous and AI-driven. HPE Mist Networking is building that future through   Marvis Minis  — a digital twin framework that runs directly on access points to continuously   validate   network health and feed data into our self-driving network engine.    This team owns the Minis platform end-to-end: the embedded agent, cloud data pipelines, SLE classifiers, and integrations with Marvis Actions and the Large Experience Model.   You'll   work across this stack — contributing to features, debugging cross-layer issues, and growing your   expertise   in both embedded and cloud systems.    This role will require being on site in Cupertino 2+ days a week What You'll Do   Develop and test Minis features  across embedded (AP firmware, switches, gateways, via   sandboxed test execution) and cloud (data pipelines, SLE classifiers, REST APIs)    Write and   maintain   Minis tests  — network and application validation tests such as DNS,   DHCP,  ping , MTR that run on networks like APs, switches,   gateways   and report results to the cloud via Kafka    Debug cross-layer issues  — troubleshoot problems that span AP firmware, cloud services, and data pipelines (e.g., why a downloadable mini fails on specific AP models, why SLE classifiers show incorrect data)    Contribute to cross-platform expansion  — help extend Minis to switches and WAN edge devices, working with peer dev teams    Build and improve cloud services  — work on Storm topologies, Airflow DAGs, Redis caching, Elasticsearch queries, and Kafka consumers that process millions of Minis test results    Participate in production operations  — monitor rollouts of features and respond to customer-reported issues    Collaborate  with senior engineers, the data science team, QA, and firmware teams    Required Qualifications (all   required )   4+ years of professional software engineering   2+ year Go, C, or Python:   This experience should be   hands-on development in at least   two  of   the following:   Go, C, or Python — meaning you have written, reviewed, tested, and shipped code in these languages in a team environment, not just coursework or personal projects. You should be able to read and contribute to an existing codebase of moderate complexity in these languages.    2+ years working on Linux-based systems. Linux   proficiency :   Should be c omfortable working in a Linux environment daily — you can write shell scripts, navigate the filesystem, use debugging tools ( gdb ,   strace ,   tcpdump ), manage processes, and understand file permissions and basic networking configuration (interfaces, routing, iptables).    Networking fundamentals: Understanding of TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP, and HTTP — sufficient to explain how a client obtains an IP address, resolves a hostname, and makes an HTTP request, and to interpret packet captures or traceroute output when debugging issues    1+ year of Cloud or distributed systems: experience with
