Staff Software Engineer, Storage Platform

What you'll do

• Develop Linux kernel drivers for NVMe fault recovery and GPIO overcurrent protection.
• Design and validate ZFS pool architecture using reliability models and fault-injection testing.
• Integrate NVMe controller recovery with ZFS and prototype, integrate, and prepare the platform for launch.

What they ask for

• 5+ years writing Linux kernel code, including hands-on driver development involving PCI/PCIe devices, block storage, or interrupt-driven hardware.
• Experience with storage systems such as ZFS or other copy-on-write filesystems, RAID, NVMe internals, or high-throughput network storage.
• Depth in filesystem internals, block layer/device management, or storage protocol implementation.
• Strong working knowledge of OS internals, including virtual memory, interrupt context constraints, synchronization primitives, and I/O stack behavior.

Nice to have

• Hands-on experience at the driver–hardware boundary, including DMA coherency, MMIO semantics, PCIe enumeration, and cache behavior.
• Experience with storage fault testing, low-level tracing or crash-dump analysis; embedded Linux build systems and hardware lab debugging are also listed as nice-to-haves.
