Meet the Team
We are part of Cisco’s Data center Networking Group that develops the Nexus switches used for various data center fabric designs. Cisco Nexus 9000 Series Switches, powered by Cisco Silicon One® and Cisco Cloud Scale architectures, provide high-speed, deterministic, low-latency, and power-efficient connectivity for AI and high-performance computing (HPC) workloads. With the availability of multiple form-factors, optics, and rich software features of the Cisco NX-OS operating system, Nexus 9000 switches provide a consistent experience for frontend, storage, backend, and out-of-band (OOB) management networks. The Nexus Infrastructure security team is responsible for the software security features on the switch and maintaining the security posture of the product.
Your Impact
At Cisco, we’re revolutionizing how data and infrastructure connect and protect organizations in the AI era – and beyond. We’ve been innovating fearlessly for 40 years to create solutions that power how humans and technology work together across the physical and digital worlds. These solutions provide customers with unparalleled security, visibility, and insights across the entire digital footprint.
Fueled by the depth and breadth of our technology, we experiment and create meaningful solutions. Add to that our worldwide network of doers and experts, and you’ll see that the opportunities to grow and build are limitless. We work as a team, collaborating with empathy to make really big things happen on a global scale. Because our solutions are everywhere, our impact is everywhere.
We are Cisco, and our power starts with you.
