Staff Software Engineer (Storage)

Join our team as a Staff Software Engineer (Storage) and play a key role in designing, building, and operating the file and block storage behind our high-performance AI storage platform. You will work closely with infrastructure, compute, and platform teams to create reliable, scalable, and high-throughput systems that power some of the largest and most innovative AI workloads in the world.

• Design, build, and operate file and block storage systems for high-performance AI workloads.
• Implement highly scalable multi-tenant file and block storage, from the data path through the control plane.
• Mentor other engineers on building distributed, high-performance systems, and improve reliability, durability, and observability across the storage stack.
• Cloud-native infrastructure, Kubernetes, and scalable system architecture
• Wondering if you’re a good fit? We believe in investing in our people, and value candidates who can bring their own diversified experiences to our teams – even if you aren't a 100% skill or experience match. Here are a few qualities we’ve found compatible with our team. If some of this describes you, we’d love to talk

• 10+ years in storage systems engineering or infrastructure
• Bachelor's or Master's in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience
• Strong debugging in distributed, high-performance environments, and clear communication across teams
• You're curious about what storage looks like when it lives next to the GPUs
• You're an expert in making distributed systems fast, durable and simple to operate
• Storage protocols (e.g. NFS, S3) and file systems such as Ceph, Lustre, DAOS, or similar
• You love owning a system from whiteboard to production
• Proficiency in a systems programming language such as Rust, C++, or Go
