> - Distributed systems. Everything is distributed these days with NUMA, cache coherency, PCI transactions, etc. You’ll have to know how to use the right kind of atomic memory ordering, debug lockless algorithms, and know how the OS scheduler works at a deep level. If this doesn’t excite you, the job might not be a good fit.

I'm familiar with the things you mentioned, except PCI transactions. In this context, do you also have to deal with distributed transactions, lost responses, eventual consistency, and the like? Do you have to account for "response lost, don't know if it went through" situations?

Definitely going for it after all the responses here :)
