Sr. Distributed Systems Engineer

Role

As a distributed systems engineer, you'll work across the stack to solve problems as they come up and help build Archil volumes. You'll have significant influence over the technical and product direction.

We'll expect you to be able to :

• Be oncall for a production system to help our customers if anything goes wrong.
• Build out never-before-seen capabilities in a storage service
• Design distributed systems interactions for atomicity and idempotency
• Deploy infrastructure and generalize infrastructure across different clouds
• Operate through changing customer requirements with lots of ambiguity
• Lead teams of engineers through complex decisions and PR feedback

Who are you?

Why join us?

By building the highest-performance, simplest storage product in the cloud, we have a great chance of changing how the world builds the next-generation of applications (and with AI, more applications will be written in the next 5 years than ever before). We'd love for your to be a part of our journey.

About Archil

Archil is on a mission to change how developers build applications in the cloud, by building the next, default storage platform in the cloud.

Over the past 15 years, S3 has become the default way to store inactive data sets in the cloud, but the next-generation of AI and analytics applications need to actively process more data than ever before. We're solving this problem by building the first Volume storage product that's as fast as EBS, infinitely scaleable like S3, and connects to existing data sets in S3 and other repositories. Our customers choose Archil because this architecture radically simplifies how they think about working with their data (every application becomes stateless, no cold-start latencies, and no need to worry about checkpointing or backup). Hacker News agrees.

Hunter, the founder, has 10 years of experience building and operating cloud storage, including helping to launch Amazon's EFS product and working on bleeding-edge storage at Netflix. He started the company after working with hundreds of customers across these roles, and identifying a need for a new kind of storage product.

We're fully in-person in San Francisco. If you're also someone interested in distributed systems, completely focused on how to make customers successful, and interested in solving really big technical challenges, we'd love for you to join us.
