About the role
- Drive the technical resolution and stability of Everpure's highest-stakes cloud storage deployments for top-tier hyperscale partners.
- Serve as the technical bridge between field telemetry and core engineering, diagnosing high-complexity distributed systems failures and creating automation.
Responsibilities
- Lead Root-Cause Investigations: Analyze complex system behavior, memory dumps, field telemetry, and low-level code across platform, firmware, and software layers to isolate and resolve critical failures in large-scale distributed systems.
- Build System Health Automation: Design and deploy automated diagnostics, predictive health-monitoring services, and AI-assisted workflow tools that reduce manual triage time and prevent recurring failure patterns across growing global fleets.
- Direct Hyperscaler Engineering Collaboration: Partner directly with technical teams at hyperscale customer organizations to solve deep integration challenges, ensuring platform reliability and unlocking major expansion opportunities.
- Engineer Fleet-Wide Reliability Improvements: File, prioritize, and drive long-term engineering fixes from escalation findings back into core product roadmaps to continuously elevate system stability.
Requirements
- Systems & Storage Expertise: Deep hands-on experience in Linux systems engineering, platforms, or low-level firmware, along with a strong grasp of storage technologies (such as SSDs, NVMe, NAND, or distributed storage architectures).
- Advanced Debugging & Software Engineering: Proven mastery of troubleshooting complex distributed systems using languages like Python, Go, or C++, paired with the ability to build automated tools for log analysis, telemetry, and system diagnostics.
- Technical Communication & Problem-Solving: Ability to deconstruct intricate distributed systems failure modes into clear technical action plans, facilitating seamless collaboration with cross-functional SMEs and external engineering leadership.
- Location & Work Environment: We are primarily an in-office environment and therefore, you will be expected to work from the Santa Clara office in compliance with Everpure's policies.
