HCI Platform Architecture: Design and maintain the core HCI software stack including the distributed resource scheduler, software-defined storage engine, and virtual networking fabric that underpin Quantum's hyperconverged appliances.
Performance & Resource Efficiency: Profile and optimize resource contention across compute, storage, and network layers. Work with technologies like iSCSI, NVMe-oF, SR-IOV, and DPDK to minimize overhead and maximize workload density on shared HCI nodes.
Fault Tolerance & Self-Healing: Implement and maintain features such as automatic node failure detection, live VM migration, distributed snapshot management, and self-healing storage policies to ensure continuous availability of HCI workloads.
Virtualization & Workload Management: Develop and extend integrations with hypervisors (KVM, VMware, Hyper-V) and container runtimes (Kubernetes, Docker) to enable seamless workload placement, live migration, and QoS enforcement across the HCI cluster.
Scale-Out & Lifecycle Management: Ensure the HCI platform scales linearly as nodes are added, automating data rebalancing, capacity expansion, and rolling software upgrades without disrupting running workloads.

Minimum 8 years of experience in systems or infrastructure software development using C/C++, Python, or equivalent languages.
Leverage modern development tools and AI-assisted workflows (e.g., Claude code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, LLMs) to accelerate prototyping, code generation, and test automation.
Experience developing or optimizing the datapath in a software-defined storage layer, including I/O path, caching, replication, erasure coding, and low-latency data services.
Experience with hypervisors (KVM, VMware vSphere, Hyper-V) and container orchestration (Kubernetes, OpenShift) is a plus.
Experience with software-defined networking (OVS, VXLAN, BGP) and Linux networking stack is a plus.
Experience with HCI platforms such as Nutanix AOS, VMware vSAN, or Azure Stack HCI is a plus.
