Experience working with large-scale distributed systems including deep dives into code, storage hardware, networking, and operating systems

The ability to take ownership and responsibility of issues and handle them effectively to resolution

We’d love to see:

Contributions to Open Source projects especially related to Storage, Automation, or
Performance Monitoring

Thorough knowledge and experience with data storage algorithms, technologies such as erasure coding, and complex production troubleshooting

A keen interest in keeping abreast of technological advances and proven success at incorporating new technology into existing systems
