Senior Software Engineer - Software Engineer

Dell Technologies • Hopkinton, MA • 13h ago

Software Engineer/Senior Software Engineer

Join us to do the best work of your career and make a profound social impact as a Software Engineer/Senior Software Engineer on our Software Engineering Team in Round Rock, TX: Hopkinton, MA: Seattle WA and Raliegh NC.

What you'll achieve

We build enterprise-grade, massively scalable cluster-based storage systems running across Linux and BSD. Our portfolio includes a multi-petabyte S3 object store and a scale-out NAS platform. We're a modern, scrum-based engineering org that ships with high velocity and quality, using the best tools, hardware, and practices.

As a Software Engineer, you will contribute anywhere in our stack and help us decide where your strengths best fit as you onboard. If you can explain how and where you'll add outsized value in a distributed storage architecture, we want to talk.

You will:

Own problems end-to-end across design, implementation, testing, deployment, and supportability-within a cluster storage system.

Build and harden distributed services: durability, consistency, replication, data paths, metadata, control planes, scheduling, placement, and lifecycle management.

Optimize performance across compute, memory, IO, networking (including RDMA), and storage media (NVMe/SSD/HDD); drive latency and throughput improvements with data-driven profiling.

Advance reliability through observability, telemetry, failure injection, chaos testing, and automated remediation; raise the bar on serviceability and supportability.

Contribute to security & compliance with secure-by-default engineering.
