The opportunity
SpaceX was founded under the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not. Today SpaceX is actively developing the technologies to make this possible, with the ultimate goal of enabling human life on Mars.
What you'll do
Design, implement, and maintain storage infrastructure across multiple tiers:: high-performance, capacity, archive, backup/recovery, and disaster recovery.
Architect and operate high-throughput, low-latency storage and support: exabyte scale file systems (e.g., VAST,) for simulation, telemetry, and high-concurrency workloads.
Administer storage systems including NetApp, Pure FlashArray/FlashBlade, Vast, and HPE Alletra.
Monitor and troubleshoot storage performance across the full stack: hardware, transport (RDMA), and protocol layers.
Troubleshoot complex issues that require an understanding of the interaction: of various protocols and operating systems.
Manage storage access, data permissions, and access controls across different protocols and operating systems.
What they're looking for
- Develop automation and tooling for monitoring, capacity utilization and: planning, configuration management, and alerting.
- Define and enforce standards for storage deployment, performance tuning, and operational management.
- Collaborate with compute, networking, and application teams to align storage: strategies with system architecture and workload requirements.
- Participate in scheduled maintenance, on-call rotation, and occasional physical installation of hardware.
