Improve Your Match — 5 Practical Next Steps
1. Add REST/HTTP API development and mainstream backend architecture.
2. Learn SQL/database integration and persistent application data.
3. Build Docker + CI/CD deployment skills for production environments.
4. Strengthen modern C/C++ and Linux systems programming.
5. Build one portfolio project: secure server → database → REST API → Docker deployment.

Recommended Edgeline Direction
After this course: Linux/System Programming → Modern C/C++ → REST APIs & SQL → Docker/CI-CD → Web/Network Security.

Current Job Relevance Checked
Cisco — Software Engineer, Networking Protocols, Bengaluru — strong networking/systems alignment.
f5 — Systems Engineer, Network Security, Bengaluru — network-security relevance.
Telit Cinterion — Software Engineer, Connectivity/TCP-IP, Noida — direct TCP/IP/connectivity relevance.
SonicWall — Senior Software Engineer, C/C++ / SSL-TLS, Pune — direct systems/security relevance.

Source basis: Edgeline's published Secure TCP course curriculum plus current networking/backend/security job requirements checked in September 2026. The course explicitly covers TCP sockets, multi-client poll(), application-layer protocols, JSON, JWT, Bcrypt, TLS, Linux internals and Makefile workflow. Match percentages are curriculum-alignment estimates, not employer-issued scores.
