Résumé du poste

NetApp is seeking a systems-focused engineer to design, develop, and optimize cloud storage services and distributed systems. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to model, measure, and improve performance, scalability, and cost-efficiency of cloud platforms while balancing quality, cost, and time-to-market.

The ideal candidate has strong analytics, hands-on AI/ML application to performance engineering, and solid OS knowledge; C is highly desirable.

Qualifications

• Minimum 4 years of experience in performance engineering or a related field.
• Knowledge of performance analysis, modeling techniques, benchmarking, and workload characterization.
• Understanding of performance tradeoffs in multi-tenant elastic cloud environments (latency, throughput, cost, reliability).
• Hands-on experience applying AI/ML techniques to performance engineering.
• Understanding of AI/ML workloads and their impact on cloud storage performance.
• Strong foundations in operating systems, data structures, and standard programming practices; systems programming in C is highly desirable.
• Proficiency with scripting and automation (Python, shell; Perl acceptable) and comfort with notebooks (e.g., Jupyter).

Responsabilités

• Design and execute performance benchmarks/workloads; measure, analyze, interpret, and socialize results to identify improvement opportunities.
• Apply AI-assisted performance engineering techniques and develop tools (e.g., performance analysis, automated regression triage, and ML-based capacity planning) to accelerate bottleneck analysis and guide optimization priorities.
• Evaluate design alternatives and prototype performance enhancements across cloud services and distributed components.
• Collect and analyze customer experience signals and usage patterns; prepare findings and recommendations for engineering and management.
