Who We Are

Every technology runs on a network — and someone has to build the software that makes it work. That’s what we do. PLVision is an open networking software company that builds and customizes network operating systems, integrates silicon platforms, and contributes to open-source projects like SONiC and DentOS.

A few things worth knowing:

  • Headquartered in Kraków with a local office and Polish management team
  • 18 years building production-ready networking software
  • Member of the SONiC Governing Board
  • 40% of our engineers are Senior-level professionals
  • Trusted by world’s leading networking companies as a long-term engineering partner

The Role

  • Develop features for advanced Network Operating Systems
  • Develop, configure, investigate, and troubleshoot virtual and hardware data-center network topologies of varying complexity using diverse networking devices (e.g., routers, multilayer switches, DPUs/IPUs)
  • Investigate and implement optimal technical solutions through research and analysis
  • Create and maintain functional and design documentation for software modules
  • Collaborate with the validation (QA) team to ensure robust and reliable feature delivery
  • Contribute to open-source projects, helping shape industry standards

How We Work

  • Engineering depth. Complex challenges, not ticket queues. From NOS architecture to silicon integration — our work demands expertise that takes years to build. We actively contribute to global open-source — and that shapes the level we operate at.
  • Ownership. We think before we code, propose before we’re asked, and own the outcome. Not a resource for our clients — an engineering partner they trust with their hardest problems.
  • Expert environment. Strong engineers who hold each other to a high standard — and still share knowledge, support newcomers, and build professional relationships that last beyond projects.
