You keep a person's information usable and recoverable for years, which is a longer horizon than most storage work assumes. The failure mode that matters most here is quiet: backups that look successful and fail on restore, and migrations that lose something nobody notices for months.
Open for applications. Starts at: Pilot expansion.
We are taking applications for this role now and building the pipeline for it. The stage above is when the work itself is expected to begin, which is something you deserve to know before you apply rather than after. It is context, not a gate.
Where
In the office together five days a week, in one of our garages, and remote-friendly around your family, arranged one person at a time. We hire across the United States 🇺🇸, India 🇮🇳 and the UAE 🇦🇪.
The work
Design durable encrypted storage, snapshots, integrity checks, schema migration and conflict handling. Separate personal records from derived indexes and disposable caches. Work with cryptography and privacy engineers on backup keys, retention, deletion and restore behavior.
The milestone
In your first 90 days, demonstrate recovery from a damaged database and an interrupted upgrade, with documented recovery-point and recovery-time results.
Required
Nice to have
Evidence
Bring experience with databases, filesystems or synchronization systems. Understand crash consistency, compaction, migration and how apparently successful backups can fail during restoration.
Evidence, not credentials. We are describing work you can point at, in whatever form it exists.
The exercise
Design a restore workflow that cannot silently reintroduce a previously deleted personal record.
The package
Indicative pay ranges by market and level are on the compensation page. Plan numbers are confirmed in your offer letter.
Apply
One short form. A person reads every application and you hear back either way. You will get your own link to check where things stand, and you can withdraw or delete your application from it at any time, without an account.
