About the role

Cisco Systems is seeking a senior backend engineer to shape the ingest processing pipelines for our Splunk-integrated data platform. You will design and implement high-throughput distributed systems and collaborate across product and platform teams in a hybrid/remote environment. The role emphasizes code quality, testing, and scalable architectures, with opportunities to mentor engineers and drive multi-year roadmaps. We value innovation and a strong track record in large-scale data processing.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
