Job description

The Hyperscale Line of Business at Pure Storage builds and ships exabyte-scale infrastructure with an emphasis on speed, reliability, and operational excellence., As a Senior Software Engineer you will operate with a 90% hands-on coding focus. You will work at the heart of Engineering Acceleration: building and productizing the shared tools that make Hyperscale engineering teams faster and more effective. In this role, you’ll design and build Python and C++ tooling for high-toil developer workflows, use AI-assisted development to iterate quickly as requirements evolve, and turn promising prototypes into supported tools that engineering teams rely on daily., * Build shared tools for high-toil engineering workflows (triage, rebase/payload, release), taking them from prototype to supported, documented, and reliable.

  • Use AI tooling to prototype and iterate rapidly, staying responsive to changing requirements.
  • Use engineering metrics to diagnose workflow friction and directly improve developer velocity across the org.

Design & Reliability (~40% Focus)

  • Strong design and architecture judgment so fast-moving tools stay maintainable, correct, and safe to depend on.
  • Write robust software and implement clean interfaces (REST, gRPC, CLI) for the tools and services engineers use daily.
  • Partner with Tech Leads and Managers to shape technical roadmaps for dev tooling.
  • Mentor junior engineers, participate in deep code reviews, and establish operational excellence (incident response, change management, build observability).
  • 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, unless you are on PTO, or work travel, or other approved leave., US export law restricts Everpure from employing citizens of sanctioned nations (such as Syria, Cuba, Iran, and North Korea FULL LIST) who do not hold a second nationality or permanent residence in a non-sanctioned nation. Does this rule affect your employment by Everpure? Are you authorized to work in the country you are applying to work in?* Select… Will you now or in the future require sponsorship for employment visa status?* Select…

Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A “disabled veteran” is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A “recently separated veteran” means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran’s discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An “active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran” means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An “Armed forces service medal veteran” means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985. Veteran Status Select…

Requirements

  • 6+ years of production software engineering experience (calibrated for MTS4/Senior level) in developer productivity, tooling, or platform engineering.

  • Experience building internal tools or developer-facing software and turning prototypes into supported, shared tools, including containerization (Docker) for reproducible environments; fluent use of AI coding tools to move fast.
  • Hands-on experience designing clean interfaces (gRPC, REST, CLI) for tools and services.
  • Comfort using engineering metrics and monitoring tools (e.g., Prometheus, fb303, scribe, t-digest) to diagnose friction and measure improvement.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
