Meet the Team
Isovalent, now part of Cisco, is the company founded by the creators of Cilium and eBPF. Cisco Isovalent is building the next generation of products for securing workloads and AI infrastructure using advanced technologies across Linux and Windows.
Our software agent team builds high-performance, secure, and lightweight software agents that run across Unix, Linux, and Windows environments and multiple architectures, including aarch64, x86_64, s390x, ppc64_le, and SPARC. These agents operate across traditional and modern workloads in on-premises and cloud environments, including virtual machines and major container orchestration platforms.
Our agents collect rich information about workloads, including network traffic and system activities such as processes, users, and file access. They enforce network policies from a central controller, monitor and protect container-based deployments, and provide runtime security capabilities designed to mitigate high-severity vulnerabilities.
You will be an integral member of the software agent team and work closely...
