  • Ensuring the platform behaves predictably during failures, maintenance, and scaling events
  • Improving how storage integrates with compute environments (GPU/HPC, Kubernetes, data pipelines)
  • Driving faster and more reliable incident detection, resolution, and prevention
  • Improving capacity planning to avoid emergency scaling and unexpected degradation
  • Continuously improving tooling, automation, and operational practices to make the platform easier to operate and scale

What We Look For In You:

  • Experience operating large-scale storage systems in production (distributed or vendor-based)
  • Strong understanding of Linux, storage performance, and system behavior under load
