Job description

Everpure (NYSE: P) has evolved from storage pioneer to data platform, closing fiscal 2026 with $3.7 billion in revenue, its first billion-dollar quarter, and accelerating growth into FY27. Our strategic agenda spans the companies defining the next era of technology - hyperscalers, AI labs, the AI hardware supply chain, data platform providers, and the broader AI ecosystem.

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

Drive the technical resolution and stability of Everpure's highest-stakes cloud storage deployments for top-tier hyperscale partners. As a Senior Software Engineer on the Hyperscale Product Escalations team (known internally as a Forensics Engineer), you will serve as the technical bridge between field telemetry and core engineering, diagnosing high-complexity distributed systems failures and creating automation that anticipates issues before they impact customer workloads. You will directly influence customer trust, enable multi-million dollar account success, and help architect the future of hyperscale storage solutions built for AI-driven infrastructure.

WHAT YOU'LL DO
  • Lead Root-Cause Investigations: Analyze complex system behavior, memory dumps, field telemetry, and low-level code across platform, firmware, and software layers to isolate and resolve critical failures in large-scale distributed systems.
  • Build System Health Automation: Design and deploy automated diagnostics, predictive health-monitoring services, and AI-assisted workflow tools that reduce manual triage time and prevent recurring failure patterns across growing global fleets.
  • Direct Hyperscaler Engineering Collaboration: Partner directly with technical teams at hyperscale customer organizations to solve deep integration challenges, ensuring platform reliability and unlocking major expansion opportunities.
  • Engineer Fleet-Wide Reliability Improvements: File, prioritize, and drive long-term engineering fixes from escalation findings back into core product roadmaps to continuously elevate system stability.
WHAT YOU BRING
  • Systems & Storage Expertise: Deep hands-on experience in Linux systems engineering, platforms, or low-level firmware, along with a strong grasp of storage technologies (such as SSDs, NVMe, NAND, or distributed storage architectures).
  • Advanced Debugging & Software Engineering: Proven mastery of troubleshooting complex distributed systems using languages like Python, Go, or C++, paired with the ability to build automated tools for log analysis, telemetry, and system diagnostics.
  • Technical Communication & Problem-Solving: Ability to deconstruct intricate distributed systems failure modes into clear technical action plans, facilitating seamless collaboration with cross-functional SMEs and external engineering leadership.
  • Location & Work Environment: We are primarily an in-office environment and therefore, you will be expected to work from the Santa Clara office in compliance with Everpure’s policies, unless you are on PTO, or work travel, or other approved leave.
