Senior Systems Software Engineer

Work on challenging, system-level problems that directly impact product quality and customer experience. Build software that matters alongside experienced engineers across software, firmware, and hardware domains. Grow into broader technical leadership while staying deeply hands-on and leverage and advance industry-leading AI tool chains.

We are looking for a Senior Systems Software Engineer who will thrive on building software that solves complex, system-level problems. This role focuses on designing and developing production-quality software that drives validation, analysis, and system understanding for enterprise storage systems, at scale, under stress, and in real-world environments.

This is not a test role . The ideal candidate works across the stack, partners closely with firmware, hardware, and systems teams, and plays a key role in shaping both technical direction and engineering best practices.

- Design and build robust software, tools, and frameworks that enable validation and analysis of complex storage systems - Develop solutions that exercise systems in realistic scenarios to uncover edge cases, performance limits, and reliability opportunities - Debug and resolve challenging issues that span multiple layers, including application, OS, driver, and hardware interactions - Collaborate with cross-functional teams to improve system design, observability, and overall product quality - Lead technical efforts within projects, such as driving design discussions, influencing decisions, and ensuring high-quality execution - Contribute to the evolution of internal tooling, frameworks, and development practices, especially ones accelerating through AI integration - Mentor and guide other engineers through hands-on support, code reviews, and technical coaching

- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field (Master's or higher preferred) - 6+ years of experience designing and developing software for complex systems - Strong programming skills in languages such as C or C++ - Strong scripting skills in languages such as Python - A solid foundation in operating systems concepts, concurrency, and system interactions - Proven ability to troubleshoot and resolve complex, cross-layer issues - Experience delivering well-designed, maintainable software - Experience with storage systems, distributed systems, or low-level system behavior (drivers, OS internals, kernel interactions) is a plus

- Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively across teams - Ability to take ownership of complex problem areas and drive them to resolution - Demonstrated ability to influence design and architecture beyond immediate deliverables - Familiarity with storage or networking protocols such as SCSI, iSCSI, NVMe, or Fibre Channel - Experience with performance analysis, system characterization, or large-scale infrastructure - Experience building tools or platforms used by other engineers - Familiarity with Artificial Intelligence tool chains
