This role sits within the File System team, responsible for the storage architecture, metadata services, caching, snapshots, replication, recovery, and protocol capabilities that power Nasuni’s enterprise file platform. \nYou will design, develop, test, debug, and operate production-grade systems software used by large enterprise customers. You will work closely with engineers across File System, Platform, Control Plane, Security, Infrastructure, and QA to improve scalability, resilience, performance, and operational simplicity. \nThis role is ideal for engineers who enjoy C/C++ systems programming, distributed systems, file system internals, Linux, performance engineering, and production debugging. It is not intended for engineers focused primarily on front-end development, application-only feature delivery, or high-level architecture without hands-on implementation. \nLevel & Scope Definition \nYou will own complex file system features or components from design through production. You will make technical tradeoffs, write high-quality code, participate in design reviews, resolve difficult defects, and help improve engineering practices within the team. You will influence implementation approaches and reliability improvements while partnering with more senior technical leaders on broader architecture decisions. \nResponsibilities \nDesign and implement core file system and storage platform capabilities using C and C++. \nBuild and improve services related to metadata, snapshots, caching, replication, recovery, data consistency, and storage efficiency. \nContribute to NFS, SMB, S3, POSIX, or related file access and storage protocol capabilities. \nDebug complex issues across distributed services, Linux environments, and Kubernetes-based infrastructure. \nImprove performance, scalability, reliability, observability, and test coverage for production systems. \nPartner with engineering teams to deliver secure, maintainable, and operationally efficient platform improvements. \nParticipate in design reviews, code reviews, incident analysis, and root-cause investigations. \nUse AI-assisted engineering workflows where appropriate for code generation, debugging, test creation, log analysis, documentation, and workflow automation while maintaining accountability for correctness, security, and quality. \nMentor engineers through code review, technical guidance, and practical systems engineering practices. \nExpected Outcomes & Impact \nDeliver reliable file system features that support enterprise-scale workloads. \nImprove performance, resiliency, debuggability, and operational efficiency across core storage components. \nReduce defects and production risk through stronger testing, observability, and root-cause discipline. \nAccelerate team execution while maintaining high engineering standards. \nQualifications \nMust Have \n6+ years of software engineering experience, including substantial systems programming experience. \nStrong C and C++ development skills in production environments. \nExperience with Linux, concurrency, memory management, debugging, and performance analysis. \nExperience building or operating distributed systems, storage systems, file systems, or infrastructure software. \nUnderstanding of file system concepts such as POSIX semantics, metadata, caching, consistency, snapshots, replication, or recovery. \nExperience owning complex technical work from design through production release. \nStrong debugging, testing, code review, and root-cause analysis skills. \nPreferred \nExperience with NFS, SMB, S3, FUSE, VFS, Linux kernel interfaces, or object storage systems. \nExperience with Kubernetes, cloud-native infrastructure, or containerized distributed services. \nExperience with high availability, data protection, replication, or recovery workflows. \nExperience with performance benchmarking, profiling, observability, and production incident analysis. \nExperience mentoring engineers or leading feature-level technical design. \nIdeal \nExperience building enterprise-scale file systems, distributed storage platforms, or cloud file services. \nDeep expertise in metadata services, file system consistency, protocol behavior, or performance-sensitive storage paths. \nExperience using AI-assisted engineering workflows to improve development speed, troubleshooting, testing, or documentation. \nExperience Guidelines \n6-10+ years total software engineering experience. \n3+ years in distributed systems, storage, infrastructure, or systems programming. \n1-3+ years owning complex components, major features, or production-critical technical work. \nAI at Nasuni \nAI at Nasuni is used to improve efficiency, decision-making, and engineering outcomes. In this role, you will be expected to use AI tools where appropriate for code assistance, debugging, architecture analysis, documentation, test generation, and workflow automation while applying strong engineering judgment, validation, security awareness, and ownership.
