Senior🎓
Top SchoolRaman Gupta is a seasoned networking and embedded software engineer with 11+ years of experience delivering high-performance switching and router solutions across Broadcom, EZchip, Marvell, and other ASIC platforms. He has a proven track record of accelerating board bring-ups (notably Tomahawk2) and shipping products to release in record time while implementing complex dataplane features like VPLS, MPLS, BGP and ISSU. Raman designed nanosecond-precision PTP and integrated timestamping for low-latency use cases such as high-frequency trading, and contributed backend ACL functionality to the widely used Open Compute Project Switch Abstraction Interface (SAI). His background spans microcode development and debugging for multiple NPUs and traffic-management chips, plus hands-on Linux-based NOS feature work. Known as an individual contributor who thrives on low-level problem solving, he combines protocol-level expertise with practical system integration and deployment experience.
