Description

  • Own the complete storage platform software stack, including Linux kernel drivers, OpenZFS pool design, NFS data serving, and automated fault recovery.
  • Design and implement custom Linux kernel drivers for NVMe fault recovery and GPIO overcurrent protection.
  • Work across PCI/PCIe, block layer, and interrupt subsystems to detect and recover from radiation-induced upsets without data loss.
  • Lead ZFS pool topology architecture by building quantitative reliability models and validating them through fault injection testing.
  • Develop the integration layer between NVMe controller reset handling and ZFS so recovered drives rejoin the storage pool cleanly.
  • Rapidly prototype and validate the architecture on commodity hardware before carrying it through integration and launch.
  • Build and ship a platform capable of preserving up to a petabyte of mission data through years of radiation exposure.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience writing Linux kernel code, with actual driver development for 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 such as NFS.
  • Depth in one or more of the following: 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.
  • Hands-on experience at the driver hardware/software boundary, including DMA coherency, MMIO semantics, PCIe enumeration, and cache behavior (preferred).
  • Strong working knowledge of storage-oriented data structures and systems reasoning, such as Merkle trees, NVMe submission/completion queue ring buffers, hash tables, and radix trees (preferred).
  • Experience testing storage systems through fault injection, low-level tracing tools such as ftrace, perf, or bpftrace, and crash dump analysis with kdump/vmcore (preferred).
  • Experience designing software recovery around storage hardware fault cases in domains such as storage firmware, autonomous vehicle data systems, large-scale distributed infrastructure, or embedded platforms (preferred).
  • Familiarity with embedded Linux build systems such as Yocto or Buildroot and cross-compilation (preferred).
  • Comfort working in a hardware lab with serial consoles, logic analyzers, and debugging PCIe enumeration failures alongside electrical engineers (preferred).

Benefits

  • Competitive salary with a hiring range of $181,000 to $248,500 USD.
  • Equity as part of the total rewards package.
  • Generous PTO and sick leave policy.
  • Parental leave.
  • Annual learning and development stipend.
  • Additional benefits and perks available through the company benefits program.
  • Equal opportunity employer with an accommodations contact for reasonable adjustments.
