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

At Everpure, we build the high-performance foundation of the Enterprise Data Cloud, delivering six 9s of continuous availability to global organizations. As a Systems Software Engineer on our Core Engineering team, you will design and scale critical distributed infrastructure handling massive data volumes under rigorous latency constraints. Partnering closely with multi-functional engineering teams, you will shepherd complex technical initiatives from design to production rollout, directly expanding the capabilities and resilience of our platform.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Architect Resilient Distributed Systems: Design, implement, and optimize mission-critical platform components-spanning distributed consensus, concurrency control, and fault-tolerant storage-to sustain seamless six 9s availability and ultra-low latency for global enterprise workloads.
• Lead High-Impact Technical Initiatives: Drive core platform capabilities from technical design and prototyping through production rollout, partnering with cross-functional engineering teams to deliver scalable software that expands our cloud infrastructure.
• Tackle Complex Systems Challenges: Analyze and resolve multi-faceted issues across resource scheduling, data durability, and hardware-software bottlenecks, ensuring robust system predictability and throughput under peak customer demands.
• Champion Engineering Quality & Mentorship: Elevate team-wide engineering practices through thoughtful architectural discussions, thorough code reviews, and cross-team collaboration, cultivating an inclusive environment of continuous learning and technical innovation.

WHAT YOU BRING

• Core Systems Programming: Proficiency in writing modern, high-performance, and concurrent C++, with a focus on code clarity, maintainability, and testing discipline.
• Distributed Systems & OS Fundamentals: Solid foundation in distributed systems concepts (such as consistency models, replication, and fault recovery) and Linux systems internals (including memory management, multi-threading, and I/O performance).
• Analytical Problem Solving: Demonstrated ability to dissect complex architectural problems, debug distributed anomalies across system layers, and make balanced technical trade-offs between performance, simplicity, and reliability.
• Collaborative Technical Execution: Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with an eagerness to share knowledge, align across functional engineering teams, and deliver impactful technical solutions together.

We are primarily an in-office environment and therefore, you will be expected to work from the Santa Clara, CA office in compliance with Everpure's policies, unless you are on PTO, or work travel, or other approved leave.
