- Title: multicast routing on a radio mesh
- Location: Lille (possibility of accommodation) or telecommuting
- Type : full time
- Position: developer
- Duration: internship (3-6 months) / alternation / employment
- Reference : Offer-2023-Multicast
Description
Nexedi has developed the re6st open source software (https://re6st.nexedi.com/) to automate the deployment of hybrid (radio + wireline) meshes with latency minimization routing and multicast features. Re6st is used as a backbone for cloud, drone swarms, 4G/5G networks. It is based on Juliusz Chroboczek's babel protocol (https://www.irif.fr/~jch/) whose RFC is now adopted at the IETF.
We are looking for developers interested in one of the following topics:
- Integrating new tunneling protocols into re6st (FOU, wireguard, etc.)
- Developing in babel a version of multicast optimized for radio networks
- Combining in the same re6st network several different service terms attached to disjoint address classes
- Strengthen bad link detection mechanisms to better cope with attacks and censorship (fair routing)
We are looking for a candidate with experience in C development, a mastery of Linux and an affinity for free software
Responsibilities
- Help develop an extension to re6st
- Help to develop an extension to babel
- Test and verify the performance of re6st with a virtual network (linux network namespaces)
- Help deploying re6st on a large infrastructure
Opportunities
- Development in C and Python
- Contribute to complex free and open source software solutions
- Understand multicast, the kernel network stack and learn routing (IGP routing) in detail
- Work with real time systems
