## About the role

Make data a solved problem for every GPU workload at Fireworks. We own how data is stored, cached and moved across clouds, so that training and inference teams never have to think about where their data lives or how it gets to them, and no GPU ever waits on it.

- Strong software development skills in C/C++, Rust or Go, with experience writing performance-critical data path code. Python or Go for automation
- Deep understanding of distributed storage fundamentals: consistency models, replication and consensus (e.g., Raft/Paxos), metadata scaling, caching, and failure recovery
- Hands-on experience with Kubernetes, including CSI, to mount high-performance volumes into ephemeral GPU pods
- Experience deploying and operating storage clusters (e.g., WEKA, VAST, Lustre, Ceph, MinIO) across clouds using infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform or Pulumi
