Job summary

CoreWeave is hiring a Senior Software Engineer for storage, focusing on multi-tenant file and block storage. You will work on the NFS path, durable volumes and a Go-based control plane inside Kubernetes, delivering reliable storage for AI workloads.

You will independently deliver well-scoped components with experienced engineers, shaping the architecture and driving features end-to-end. The role emphasizes strong debugging, collaboration, and production-grade systems thinking.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering or a related field.
• 4–6 years building distributed systems, storage systems or infrastructure services.

Responsibilities

• Contribute to the file system data path: NFS reliability, IO performance and small-file workloads AI pipelines depend on.
• Help deliver file and block as first-class Kubernetes citizens: CSI driver features such as dynamic provisioning, resize and snapshots.
• Improve reliability, durability and observability of the storage stack with telemetry, metrics and dashboards.

• Work cross-functionally with compute, platform and infrastructure teams.
