This role sits at the boundary between engineering and operations, turning real-world production learnings into long-term reliability improvements through tooling, automation, and operational best practices. You’ll also partner closely with internal teams and customers to diagnose and resolve complex deployment and performance issues.

- Experience working with storage protocols and APIs such as NFS and/or S3
- Proficiency in systems programming and debugging in Go or a comparable language
- Strong understanding of Linux internals, system performance, and system behavior under load
- Experience operating production systems within an on-call rotation and responding to high-impact incidents
- Demonstrated experience building tooling, automation, or diagnostics to improve reliability and operational efficiency
- Experience supporting complex infrastructure deployments in collaboration with customer-facing or solutions engineering teams
Preferred:
- Experience working with distributed storage systems in large-scale production environments
- Experience contributing fixes or improvements to storage infrastructure or storage-related services
- Experience building observability tooling or reliability frameworks for infrastructure systems
- Experience supporting AI, HPC, or other high-performance computing workloads
