We’re in an unbelievably exciting area of tech and are fundamentally reshaping the data storage industry. Here, you lead with innovative thinking, grow along with us, and join the smartest team in the industry.
This type of work—work that changes the world—is what the tech industry was founded on. So, if you're ready to seize the endless opportunities and leave your mark, come join us.
THE ROLE
The Storage Benchmarking Engineer will design, execute, and analyze performance benchmarks spanning both industry-standard storage benchmarks (fio, vdbench, SPEC SFS 2020, IO500, SPC-1/SPC-2) and the emerging class of AI/ML storage workloads (MLPerf Storage, DLIO, and GPU-driven training/inference data pipelines). As AI has made storage a first-order bottleneck in the GPU data path, this role sits at the intersection of high-performance storage and large-scale AI infrastructure.
This position demands strong end-to-end performance troubleshooting across the entire stack — compute (including GPUs), network (including RDMA/InfiniBand and high-speed Ethernet), and storage — together with close collaboration across engineering, product management, marketing, and sales. The ideal candidate has hands-on experience with both classic storage benchmarks and AI data-pipeline benchmarking, a track record engaging benchmark standards organizations and communities, and exceptional communication and writing skills.
