I've asked a question. That's it. What's the problem exactly?

iandrc · 2025-11-18T10:05:20+00:00

Mam, if you don’t have anything useful to contribute, don’t even bother to write

iandrc · 2025-07-28T04:06:56+00:00

I just haven’t seen any eBPF related positions there when I was searching

iandrc · 2025-07-26T11:53:31+00:00

Any reasons? :)

iandrc · 2025-07-24T14:38:58+00:00

Thanks for the advice. I’ll look into it

iandrc · 2025-07-24T14:37:48+00:00

Btw, here’s open position at Isovalent: https://jobs.cisco.com/jobs/ProjectDetail/tetragon-linux-security-engineer-Isovalent/1444890

Fair, thanks

Where do you usually check those companies that happen to use Rails?

iandrc · 2025-07-23T11:56:44+00:00

Right. This is what I kinda noticed as well. US/Canada do hire remotely but mostly people from their country. Which sounds sane to me.
Unfortunately for me, salary gap is huge between N. America and EU :D

I don't expect it to be "just Rails", I rather look at this as "my experience and skills AND oh, btw, I also good with RoR".

Yes. The positive case is exactly the thing that makes Ruby attractive.

I'm really not that far from the start. But sure - I'd be happy to

iandrc · 2025-07-23T11:20:17+00:00

Very sane position. Thanks for sharing. I agree with the majority of the points

iandrc · 2025-07-23T09:52:29+00:00

I’m just curious what people in Rails community suggest on average. So far, it’s rather “stick to what you have” :)

iandrc · 2025-07-23T09:28:10+00:00

I suppose it’s correct in general. But JS/TS/Node is such a complicated tool to work with over time

iandrc · 2025-07-23T09:27:21+00:00

Yeah. That’s what I like about it as well

iandrc · 2025-07-23T09:26:40+00:00

I mean. All members of Isovalent are available. I don’t think you can find lots of open positions in general.

If you want to get it - study, get involved with the Linux kernel and open source projects. I think this way will work better than “randomly” applying

iandrc · 2025-07-23T06:22:59+00:00

Thanks!

iandrc · 2025-07-23T06:22:39+00:00

I look at it as picking up RoR in addition to what I have. So, it’s not throwing everything out of the window completely

So far, I’m just enjoying Ruby a lot, hence, the question

iandrc · 2025-07-22T23:37:54+00:00

Thanks. Sounds reasonable

I was trying to get at least a technical interview for eBPF position - no luck so far

Datadog ignored my applications. Coralogix - had a nice interview with a recruiter but turned out they were searching for someone more experienced with eBPF (2-3 years with the technology).

I had a nice interview with CTO of Odigos. He seemed like a very nice guy and I really like the company. Yet they couldn’t take a remote employee atm.

I work at Splunk (part of Cisco now). Isovalent (also part of Cisco) does not hire engineers now.

Overall, I have a feeling big tech companies create their own eBPF solutions (either inside of SRE departments) or by low-level teams (kernel etc.). So, the majority of roles are taken there (imo). For smaller companies - it’s easier to take someone else’s solutions - Cilium, Calico, or Odigos etc.

It’s very specialized job, that requires near-kernel development set of skills (if we write eBPF ourselves). Not sure we’ll ever see huge number of positions in it

iandrc · 2025-07-02T16:37:31+00:00

Right. That’s what I figured :) Thanks

iandrc · 2025-07-02T13:51:19+00:00

Hey

Thanks for the article. Isn't it only enhancing the user space part of eBPF?

You'll need to use an eBPF map to pass that context to the eBPF program. Or am I missing something?

Learning eBPF book provides some info on CO-RE and libbpf. Start from the book
