  • Experience working with interdisciplinary teams to execute product design from concept to production.
  • Expertise in server technologies such as thermal, mechanical, power, and signal integrity.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the integration and delivery of SSD from OEM suppliers.
  • Support the rollout of new drives for new and existing platforms.
  • Design and build infrastructure to operate storage platforms at massive scale.
  • Collaborate closely with software engineers to drive operational excellence.

Financial wellness typically includes a 401(k) with company match (up to 2%), Restricted Stock Units (equity), FSAs, an emergency savings program, product and partner discounts, and even college-savings and home-purchase programs.
