Customer Platform, SDK & Interoperability Architect - Randa 1.6T AEC Platform

We are looking for a Customer Platform, SDK & Interoperability Architect.

Location: Hyderabad, India

Responsabilities

· Architect the customer-facing software platform for Randa, including the adaptation layer, SDK, diagnostic tools, telemetry interfaces and reference integrations.

· Define stable APIs, extension points and versioning contracts that support customer-specific requirements without forking the core platform.

· Own C and Python management libraries, command-line tools, log-analysis utilities, integration examples and developer documentation.

· Lead interoperability and qualification across NIC, switch-ASIC and host-BMC platforms; maintain the test matrix, known-failure catalog and regression strategy.

· Represent Kandou software in customer technical discussions and escalations, converting field requirements into governed, reusable platform capabilities.

· Partner with firmware, platform validation, product management and field engineering to deliver secure, backward-compatible and supportable customer releases.

Essential Experience

· 10+ years of platform, embedded or systems software experience, including architecture or technical leadership on shipping products.

· Device-adjacent software experience on networking silicon, AEC/AOC, optical modules, retimers, storage or comparable high-speed hardware.

· Strong API and SDK architecture skills with hands-on C and/or C++ plus Python development.

· Experience designing adaptation, plugin or hook-based architectures that isolate customer-specific logic behind stable interfaces.

· Customer or OEM integration experience across NICs, switch platforms, BMCs, drivers or management software.

· Experience with semantic versioning, backward compatibility, release governance and technical documentation for external developers.

· Working knowledge of hardware management and sideband interfaces such as I2C/SMBus, MCTP or similar protocols.

Excellent customer communication, technical decision-making and cross-functional leadership skills; BS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or Computer Science, or equivalent experience.

Useful Experience

· CMIS, OSFP MSA, SFF conventions or pluggable-module management software.

· Hyperscaler or tier-one OEM qualification and field-issue triage.

· REST, gRPC, Go or Rust bindings, and schema-driven API development.

· Telemetry pipelines, diagnostic analytics and privacy-aware customer data handling.

· Hardware-in-loop lab automation, host emulation and automated interoperability testing.

· Secure software supply chain, artifact signing, access isolation and standards-group participation.
