Cisco — Bengaluru, Karnataka

Entry level · Freshers eligible · Full-time

HireSetu listing reference 2f66c1 — confirm requirements below, then apply on the employer site.

Quick answer: The engineering title is broad, but the daily work is frontend: building the interfaces for Cisco's cloud-delivered security products in React and TypeScript. A bachelor's degree in computer science or engineering is a fixed requirement, and the cloud technologies on the list sit at a preliminary level.

HireSetu's note

The UI sits on other teams' plumbing

The interfaces here run on micro-frontends shared across several teams, wired to REST APIs with authentication flows and client-side state to manage. Expect integration work: your pages live inside a shell another team owns, and the API contracts underneath them keep moving.

The listing puts engineers in front of customers and into operations and monitoring, which is not the usual frontend brief. Observability is listed as a plus. In a security product the console is what customers look at every day, so a broken screen is the failure they notice first.

Order your CV around React

The requirements split into a frontend core and a cloud list, so lead with React and TypeScript, then your testing tools: Jest, React Testing Library, Cypress. After that, anything you've built inside a shared component library or micro-frontend, plus auth flows and state management, named with the library you actually used.

Docker, Jenkins, Terraform, S3, DynamoDB, Lambda, ECS and CodeBuild follow. GoLang appears in that same group, and you don't need to be a Go developer to apply. The wording is preliminary experience, so a single project where you touched a couple of these is enough to list them.

Two directions after a couple of years

One path is deeper platform work: Webpack, Babel and Yarn configuration, shared UI libraries, performance at scale. The other goes across into the services behind the APIs, which is where the AWS, Docker and Terraform exposure earns its keep. How much of the second you get depends on how the team divides frontend and platform duties, so pin that down when you talk to them. The security domain itself comes from the product.
