Preferred Education
Bachelor's Degree
Required Technical And Professional Expertise
- Exposure to Agile Development: Experience working with agile practices and DevOps tooling to design, develop, and deliver software offerings.
- Programming Languages: Exposure to programming languages such as Python, GoLang and scripting languages (Ansible).
- Storage Technologies: Experience working with storage technologies, including Linux, Unix, AIX, and RTOS, as well as industry-standard protocols such as PCIe, NVMe, NVMeoF, Fibre Channel, and SCSI.
- Container Software: Exposure to container software such as Red Hat OpenShift or Kubernetes.
- Disaster Recovery: Exposure to fundamentals of DR and data resiliency.
Preferred Technical And Professional Experience
- Distributed Systems & Data Consistency: Strong expertise in designing and operating distributed systems, including replication strategies, consensus models, failure handling, and consistency trade-offs across multi-cluster environments.
- Disaster Recovery Architectures: Hands-on experience implementing application-level DR patterns such as active-active / active-passive setups, failover orchestration, RPO/RTO optimization, and geo-replication across Kubernetes/OpenShift environments.
- Cloud-Native & Kubernetes Ecosystem: Deep proficiency in Kubernetes, containerized workloads, and operators (e.g., CSI, Velero, ODF components), including storage abstractions, backup/restore workflows, and stateful application lifecycle management.
- Storage & Data Resiliency Technologies: Solid understanding of software-defined storage (e.g., Ceph, block/file/object storage), data protection mechanisms (snapshots, replication, erasure coding), and their integration with application-level recovery solutions.
- Observability, Automation & Reliability Engineering: Experience building highly observable and self-healing systems using metrics, logging, tracing, and automation frameworks; strong focus on fault injection testing, chaos engineering, and continuous validation of DR readiness.
