Storage Engineer - Hosting

Join a Founders Fund-backed NVIDIA cloud partner building the high-performance infrastructure that powers the world’s most ambitious AI research. In the world of GPUaaS, the bottleneck is rarely the compute; it’s the data. 

You will be a Storage Engineer who understands that AI at scale requires more than just capacity; it requires massive throughput, ultra-low latency, and the ability to feed thousands of GPUs without a hiccup. You will architect and build the data layer that supports foundation model training and enterprise-grade production inference.

If you are interested in this exciting opportunity, get in touch and apply today! 

Responsibilities:

• Design & Deploy AI Storage: Architect and implement high-performance parallel file systems (Weka, Lustre, or similar) optimised specifically for GPU-heavy workloads and multi-node training.
• 
  
• Optimise Data Pipelines: Fine-tune storage performance to ensure maximum GPUDirect Storage (GDS) efficiency, minimising latency between the storage fabric and the GPU memory.
• Manage Scale & Reliability: Build and maintain petabyte-scale storage clusters across multiple global data centers, ensuring 99.99% uptime for mission-critical AI research labs.
• Infrastructure Integration: Partner with Network and Data Center engineers to configure high-speed storage networking (InfiniBand/400G Ethernet) and ensure seamless backend connectivity.
• Automate Storage Ops: Develop Terraform providers, Ansible playbooks, or Python scripts to automate the provisioning, monitoring, and scaling of storage resources.
• Troubleshoot Complex I/O: Act as the Tier-3 lead for storage-related performance degradation, identifying root causes in the filesystem, network, or Linux kernel.

Skills/Must have:

• Specialised Storage Expertise: 5+ years of experience with high-performance storage solutions (WekaIO, VAST Data, BeeGFS, or DDN) in a Linux-heavy environment.
• 
  
• AI Infrastructure Knowledge: Deep understanding of how storage interacts with NVIDIA GPU stacks (HGX/DGX) and the specific I/O patterns of ML training (checkpoints, small file reads, etc.).
• 
  
• Networking Proficiency: Hands-on experience with InfiniBand, RoCEv2, and NVMe-over-Fabrics (NVMe-oF).
• 
  
• Systems Automation: Strong scripting skills in Python, Go, or Bash, and experience with IaC tools like Terraform or Pulumi.
• 
  
• Linux Internals: Deep knowledge of the Linux storage stack, including XFS/ZFS, LVM, and kernel tuning for high-throughput networking.

Benefits:

• 10% bonus
• Stock options 

Salary:

• $200,000 base salary
