Senior C/C++ Core Developer

We are seeking a talented and experienced Software Engineer to design, build, and optimize high-performance distributed systems, core data engines, and backend infrastructure. This role requires deep system-level architecture understanding, the ability to handle large-scale clusters processing petabytes of data, and mastery of modern C/C++ and Linux environment internals.
Key Responsibilities
Design & Develop Core Components: Build, maintain, and optimize highly scalable, resilient distributed services, storage engines, or data-processing pipelines written in C/C++.
System Architecture & Resilience: Drive architectural discussions and implementations around high availability, data consistency, replication mechanisms, fault tolerance, and multi-node concurrency.
Performance Optimization: Optimize hot execution paths, low-level data structures, memory management, and I/O subsystems to guarantee high throughput and minimal latency.
Complex Debugging & Troubleshooting: Investigate and resolve intricate production issues spanning the application layer, distributed networking protocols, file systems, and operating system kernels.
End-to-End Ownership: Take full technical ownership of critical features-from ambiguous requirements and system design through implementation, rollout, and observability in production environments.
Teams
Storage Platform: Focuses on building a next-generation distributed storage platform handling petabytes of data across large clusters specifically designed to power AI, enterprise, and analytics workloads. Handling everything that touches the hardware and operating system aspects in a software defined storage system
Data Path: Focuses on engineering a highly distributed, latency-critical Hot I/O Data Path and Element Store engine. This role is responsible for the ingestion, state-of-the-art compression, encoding, and retrieval of multi-protocol data (files and objects) under massive concurrency and ultra-low latency requirements.
Database: Focuses deeply on core relational database internals, specifically designing low-level storage engines, B-Tree/LSM-Tree data structures, MVCC concurrency control, and query execution planners.
Kernel: Focuses on the lowest software layers, emphasizing Linux Kernel development and block-level storage/file system engineering.
Protocols: Focuses strictly on engineering high-concurrency data/metadata paths that replicate external AWS S3 object-storage behavior and correctness under heavy retry and failover pressure.
Cloud: Focuses on cloud-native storage deployment, adapting and scaling complex high-availability storage infrastructure across major hyper-scaler cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP).
Compute Kafka: Focuses on distributed event-streaming and messaging platforms, specifically building a high-scale, exactly-once broker compatible with the Apache Kafka wire protocol.
