As an MTS-4 engineer, you'll be both a
systems builder
and a data problem solver
designing large-scale services, leading technical direction, and building tools that extract actionable insights from telemetry and logs. This is a high-leverage role for someone who wants to build at scale, solve tough data problems, and make a measurable difference to Pure s customers.
WHAT you'll BE DOING
-
Architect and implement backend services
for ingesting, extracting, and classifying telemetry logs at scale (eg, TALES platform). - Design
data pipelines
to process and analyze structured and unstructured logs, enabling real-time fleet intelligence and RCA automation. - Build
scalable distributed systems
using technologies like Redis, SQS, RDS, and S3 to support fault-tolerant, stateless services. - Develop and deploy microservices on cloud-native platforms (eg,
AWS
, Pure1Build
) using containerized infrastructure (Docker, Kubernetes). - Establish and maintain
robust observability
define SLOs, build health checks, monitor job queues, and implement alerting using tools like Datadog and PagerDuty. - Create and optimize
data models
for failure classification, metrics aggregation, and long-term log storage using SQL-based stores (PostgreSQL, Snowflake). -
Mentor junior engineers
, drive technical reviews, and write high-quality design docs that guide the team s architecture decisions. - Collaborate closely with platform, support, and product teams to align on service APIs, failure workflows, and operational ownership.
- Continuously improve system reliability, cost-efficiency, and developer experience through refactoring, automation, and design iteration.
WHAT you'll NEED TO BRING TO THIS ROLE...
- 7+ years of experience in software engineering and/or data engineering, building and operating backend services in
Python, Go, or Java
. - Strong knowledge of
distributed systems fundamentals
, service-oriented architecture, and asynchronous workflows. - Hands-on experience building
data pipelines
or log analytics systems
using cloud-native tools (eg, AWS Glue, Lambda, S3, Athena, Kafka, or equivalent). - Deep understanding of
database systems
SQL and NoSQL combined with strong data modeling and performance optimization skills. - Cloud infrastructure expertise, ideally in
AWS
, including IAM, cost-aware architecture, and autoscaling principles. - Familiarity with
CI/CD pipelines
, microservices lifecycle management, and containerization with Docker/Kubernetes. - Demonstrated ability to
design and lead
complex, cross-functional technical initiatives with minimal oversight. - Excellent communication skills able to explain design trade-offs, simplify complex systems, and influence across teams.
- A strong mentoring mindset and a willingness to help level-up peers and junior team members.
- bachelors or masters degree in Computer Science, Data Engineering, or a related field.
