The EngProd team uses industry-standard systems like Ansible, Jenkins, Kubernetes, Grafana, Spinnaker, MySQL, ElasticSearch, Google Cloud, and Varnish and also internal systems that we’ve built from the ground-up to automate CI/CD, testing, analysis, and visualization
We believe observability is one of the cornerstones of a stable system, and endeavor to make sure we can monitor and visualize all aspects of our tooling and infrastructure
Arista Software Engineering roles demand a strong and broad software engineering background

It will cover all aspects of software development spanning the addition of new features, debugging problems and fine tuning code for scalability and performance
You will own your projects from definition to deployment and customer interactions, and you will be responsible for the quality of everything you deliver

Review and contribute to the specifications and implementations written by other team members
Design and develop features, feature tests and solutions. Fix bugs and refactor code as needed
Work with Arista’s software engineers to identify bottlenecks and limitations in our workflows, tooling, and infrastructure and provide fixes for those problems
Provide support for our tools and infrastructure to Arista’s development team

Our take

Arista is a supplier of cloud networking solutions, addressing the needs of internet companies, cloud service providers, and enterprises. While the business is not tied to a crowd of large customers, companies are nonetheless attracted to its CloudVision Software - which has the potential to save them a significant amount of money.

The company's growth so far has led to it being seen as a rising star in the computer networking industry. It competes directly with digital giant Cisco, but despite this boasts impressive revenue growth. In fact, Arista has been vocal with its confidence that it can continue to grow at a rapid pace, as it further develops its offering for the networking market.
