Pure Storage is looking to solve the problem of streamlining the development cycle of their FlashBlade and FlashArray products by eliminating bottlenecks in testing and delivery, ensuring high-quality software reaches customers faster.
Requirements
- Deep expertise with CI/CD platforms and modern automation practices for large-scale systems.
- Proficiency in one or more modern programming languages (e.g., Python, Rust), with a track record of building automation, developer tooling, or scalable services.
- Strong Linux/Unix fundamentals, including advanced troubleshooting, debugging, and performance tuning.
- Hands-on experience with containerization and orchestration technologies (Kubernetes preferred; Docker Swarm, Nomad, or similar are also valuable).
- Proven background in observability, with experience designing and integrating monitoring, logging, tracing, and alerting into CI/CD pipelines and production systems.
- Experience with build systems (e.g., Bazel, CMake), cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure), or contributions to open-source CI/CD and developer productivity projects.
Responsibilities
- Design and build developer platforms and automation services that improve reliability, scalability, and velocity of software delivery.
- Architect and implement high-availability solutions (disaster recovery, failover, scaling strategies)
- Develop services, frameworks, and automation tooling in Python, Go, or Rust to improve developer productivity and system reliability.
- Extend and optimize CI frameworks (e.g., Jenkins or equivalent) for complex, multi-machine, distributed build/test environments.
- Apply strong Linux/Unix fundamentals to design resilient systems, debug issues across layers, and tune performance.
- Embed security into CI/CD systems by design, including access control, patch automation, and system hardening.
- Build observability and debugging tools to surface metrics, logs, and traces that accelerate troubleshooting and root cause analysis.
Other
- 8+ years of software engineering experience, with a strong background in designing scalable architectures and building reliable systems end-to-end.
- We are primarily an in-office environment and therefore, you will be expected to work from the Santa Clara office in compliance with Pure’s policies, unless you are on PTO, or work travel, or other approved leave.
- Participate in on-call rotation, incident postmortems, planning, and continuous improvement initiatives, bringing a software engineer’s perspective to reliability and scalability challenges.
