Join to apply for the Senior Software Developer - V-Force role at VAST Data

VAST Data is looking to add a V-Force Developer to our growing team!

This is a unique opportunity to join one of the fastest-growing infrastructure companies in history—at the heart of the AI revolution.

“VAST’s data management vision is the future of the market.” – Forbes

At VAST, we’re building the data platform for the AI era—software infrastructure that powers the capture, refinement, protection, and activation of massive datasets across data center, edge, and cloud. Our platform is redefining what’s possible in high-performance, scalable data systems, and we’re just getting started.

About the Role:

We’re looking for an experienced software developer with strong skills in C, C++, or Python to join our V-Force team—a specialized engineering squad embedded within R&D. This is not a support role; this is a hands-on development position focused on solving the most challenging and high-impact problems across our platform.

As a member of V-Force, you’ll:

• Debug complex issues in real-world production environments
• Design and develop robust code solutions and enhancements
• Collaborate closely with R&D, product, and field teams on customer feature requests, POCs, and sales enablement
• Tackle real-time performance challenges in large-scale systems
• Contribute directly to the evolution of our file system and storage stack
  
  

This role is perfect for a developer who thrives on deep problem-solving, understands systems at the low level, and wants to have a direct line of sight to customer impact.

Requirements:

What We’re Looking For:

• Strong development skills in C, C++, or Python
• Systems programming experience and the ability to work close to the OS/kernel level
• Solid understanding of networking concepts (e.g., TCP/IP, OSI layers)
• Familiarity with version control tools (e.g., Git)
• Experience or interest in storage systems, file systems, or block-level storage (a plus)
• BSc/MSc in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field
