They will work with the firmware team who will write the device driver and this person will integrate into open source proxy server. They will stitch in the service abstraction layer on top.

This team develops middleware/infrastructure software and makes use of the kernel and drivers provided by the Platform Software and interfaces with our Cloud Infrastructure. The software runs on an embedded device – the router. The middleware provides networked infrastructure and services for applications to run within LXC containers on the router.
