Staff Infrastructure Engineer (Storage)
Maxinsights, Santa Clara
The role
We are looking for a Staff Infrastructure Engineer to shape a storage system that is easy for business teams to use and relentlessly cost-efficient. You will own its architecture, data organization, and long-term evolution as workloads grow.
What you will do
- Design storage architecture around workload needs, defining data layout, partitioning, indexing, metadata, and access patterns.
- Drive down total cost through tiering, lifecycle management, compression, deduplication, and reduced data movement, with explicit durability and performance targets.
- Build practical storage interfaces and self-service capabilities; make ingestion, discovery, access, and troubleshooting straightforward for users.
- Align product, data, research, and infrastructure teams on requirements, ownership, and migration plans; lead adoption and verify improvements in production.
