Preferred: * Exposure to NFS, POSIX file semantics, block volumes or CSI. * Storage observability tools: Prometheus, Grafana, ClickHouse. * Distributed databases or storage engines: CockroachDB, RocksDB or similar. 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. * You love working close to the metal on systems that have to stay up * You're curious about how storage is built, not just how it is used * You're an expert in shipping reliable Go services and finding out why things break ## Description You will independently deliver well-scoped components across the file and block stack, working alongside senior and staff engineers who own the architecture. * Build and improve control plane services in Go: provisioning, tenancy, quota, snapshots and lifecycle policy for file and block storage. * Contribute to the file system data path: NFS reliability, IO performance and the small-file workloads AI pipelines depend on. * Help deliver file and block as first-class Kubernetes citizens: CSI driver features such as dynamic provisioning, resize and snapshots. * Improve reliability, durability and observability of the storage stack with telemetry, metrics and dashboards. * Debug production issues in distributed, high-performance systems and turn what you find into lasting fixes. * Work cross-functionally with compute, platform and infrastructure teams. ## Related Videos - [Using WebAssembly to run, extend, and secure your application](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/652-using-webassembly-to-run-extend-and-secure-your-application) - [5 steps for running a Kubernetes environment at scale](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/88-5-steps-for-running-a-kubernetes-environment-at-scale) - [It's all about the Data](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/425-it-s-all-about-the-data) - [On developing smartphones on wheels](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/258-on-developing-smartphones-on-wheels) - [How building an industry DBMS differs from building a research one](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/768-how-building-an-industry-dbms-differs-from-building-a-research-one) - [All your telemetry data from any source in one place](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/57-all-your-telemetry-data-from-any-source-in-one-place) ## Related Articles - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [What Makes WeAreDevelopers World Congress Different From Every Other Tech Event?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/701-what-makes-wearedevelopers-world-congress-different-from-every-other-tech-event) - [What does the history of data storage tell us about the future?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/495-what-does-the-history-of-data-storage-tell-us-about-the-future) - [Making Data Warehouses Fast: A Developer’s Story](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/107-making-data-warehouses-fast-a-developer-s-story) - [Why Attend a Developer Event in 2026?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/688-why-attend-a-developer-event-in-2026) - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers)
