Senior Software Engineer role to develop and operate Distributed Service Bus for reliable communication in complex network environments.

О компании

's Software Platform organization is seeking a Software Engineer to join the Data Distribution team. The Data Distribution team builds and operates the Distributed Service Bus (DSB) — 's next-generation mesh networking communication layer that enables autonomous systems and operators to communicate reliably across denied, degraded, intermittent, and limited (DDIL) network environments. DSB manages multi-path routing across tactical radios, satellite links, and wired networks while providing pub/sub messaging, reliable request/response, bidirectional streaming, gossip-based dissemination, and gRPC proxy capabilities to every node in the Lattice mesh.

Обязанности

As a Software Engineer on Data Distribution, you will design and build the core networking infrastructure that Lattice depends on to connect thousands of assets in contested environments. The right person for this role has strong systems programming fundamentals and experience building distributed networking systems. If you are someone who thrives on solving hard distributed systems problems under real-world constraints — bandwidth-limited RF links, dynamic topologies, and strict latency requirements — then this role is for you.
Design and implement new features for the Distributed Service Bus, including gossip protocols, OSPF-style link-state routing, and flow control mechanisms
Build and extend the gRPC proxy layer that enables existing services to communicate transparently over the DSB mesh
Debug complex distributed networking issues spanning tactical radios, UDP/TCP transports, and mesh routing — from packet captures on deployed assets to cloud infrastructure
Collaborate with product teams across business lines to deploy DSB onto new hardware platforms and support migrations from legacy communication buses
Design and implement protocol-level optimizations for bandwidth-constrained RF links, including compression, prefix routing, and priority-based QoS scheduling
Write RFCs and technical design documents for new protocol features and API surfaces
Build deterministic simulation harnesses that allow the same production code to run in fully reproducible test environments
Improve observability through Prometheus metrics, Grafana dashboards, and CLI tooling (dsbtool) for live mesh inspection and debugging
Contribute to the security posture of the communication layer, including packet signing (ECDSA), FIPS compliance, and end-to-end encryption

Требования

5+ years of professional software engineering experience
Proficiency in a systems programming language (Rust, C, C++, or Go)
Strong understanding of networking fundamentals: TCP/UDP, socket programming, MTU, multicast, TLS/mTLS
Experience building or maintaining distributed systems (message buses, RPC frameworks, consensus protocols, or similar)
Familiarity with asynchronous programming models (async/await, event loops, futures)
Comfort working with Protocol Buffers and/or gRPC
Ability to read packet captures and use network debugging tools (tcpdump, Wireshark, etc.)
Must be eligible to obtain and maintain a U.S. Secret security clearance

Будет плюсом

Production experience writing Rust
Experience with gossip protocols, epidemic broadcast, or peer-to-peer overlay networks
Familiarity with link-state routing protocols (OSPF, IS-IS) or inter-domain routing (BGP)
Experience with deterministic simulation or property-based testing of distributed systems
Familiarity with Kubernetes and container orchestration
