About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Design and build the software that provisions, integrates, and operates high-performance storage for GPU-accelerated compute and AI platforms.
Develop control-plane services, drivers, and tooling that connect enterprise and scale-out storage systems to Kubernetes-based workloads across hybrid, edge, and air-gapped deployments built on the Mirantis K0rdent stack.
Integrate high-performance storage platforms — Dell PowerScale, VAST, and comparable systems — into automated, declarative provisioning workflows.
Build data-path, telemetry, and observability tooling to diagnose and resolve performance, reliability, and scaling issues.
Write production-quality software — primarily in Go — with strong testing, code review, and operational rigor.
Deliver infrastructure-as-code (Terraform/OpenTofu) and GitOps-driven pipelines (ArgoCD or Flux) for storage configuration and lifecycle.
Support bare-metal and hybrid provisioning where storage intersects host and cluster bring-up.
Deliver storage integration for k0s-based Kubernetes via Cluster API (CAPI) and K0rdent management/child cluster topologies.
Architect storage software for fully disconnected (air-gapped) environments, including local artifact/mirror connectivity (Harbor) and PKI/TLS considerations.

Requirements

What you’ll need

5+ years of software development, including production systems, with Go as a primary language.
5+ years building or integrating storage systems (distributed, scale-out, NAS, or object) at scale.
Hands-on experience with high-performance storage platforms such as Dell PowerScale, VAST, or comparable technologies.
Solid understanding of storage fundamentals: file/block/object models, throughput and latency behavior, caching, consistency, and failure modes.
Experience with Kubernetes storage (CSI, persistent volumes, storage classes) and infrastructure-as-code.
Strong written and verbal communication with technical audiences.
Proficiency in Python and/or Rust in addition to Go is preferred.
Experience with the Mirantis K0rdent stack (K0rdent Enterprise, K0rdent AI, k0s, MKE) and Cluster API is a plus.
Experience developing storage for GPU/AI workloads (high-throughput data pipelines, GPUDirect Storage).
Proven experience in sovereign or high-security air-gapped environments.
