Software Engineer – Platform Storage

In this role you help build the storage backbone for a high-performance, globally distributed research and trading platform. You will design and evolve storage abstractions and orchestration services across hybrid on-prem and cloud infrastructure, enabling researchers and engineers to access massive datasets efficiently. You’ll work with cross-functional teams to optimize throughput, reliability, and data locality, shaping a scalable in-house storage platform with long-term impact.

• Build scalable storage and orchestration services across hybrid infrastructure environments
• Design platform layers that provide seamless access across distributed storage technologies
• Evaluate and integrate open-source and vendor storage tooling into a unified platform
• Improve storage throughput, data locality and platform efficiency for research workloads
• Collaborate closely with compute, networking and observability teams across the wider platform estate
• Support troubleshooting, tuning and reliability engineering for production storage systems

• Strong backend or systems engineering background with Go, Rust, C++ or Java
• Experience building or supporting distributed systems at scale
• Strong Linux knowledge and an interest in infrastructure engineering
• Exposure to observability tooling such as Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog or ELK
• Understanding of cloud and infrastructure automation, ideally AWS, GCP or Terraform
• Any experience with Ceph, MinIO, JuiceFS, FUSE, RDMA, GPUDirect or DPDK would be highly beneficial

• collaboration across cross-functional teams
• problem-solving orientation
• attention to reliability and performance
• Go
