Descripción de la vacante

Mistral is building a sovereign AI cloud for Europe. We are seeking a founding Engineering Team Lead for storage to own the stack and grow the team from day one.

You will decide what we build, what we buy, and ensure durable data across datacenters; you will write Go services and deploy trusted storage layers. This role blends hands-on engineering with people leadership, with ownership from the start.

Formación

• 2+ years of real people leadership managing engineers.

Responsabilidades

• Stand up the storage stack — block, file, object — for training, sandbox, and general compute workloads.
• Make the build-vs-buy calls: deploy and harden vendor platforms where they win; design and write our own services in Go where they don't.
• Own the data plane: allocation, duplication, tiering, backup and recovery, S3-compatible APIs.
• Plan capacity across datacenters and across failure domains — petabytes, not terabytes.
• Build the team from zero: hire, onboard and coach them, own performance and growth paths, and set the standard for ownership.
• Partner with Product Managers to shape the storage roadmap and make the technical and business tradeoffs.
