Summary Generated by Built In

Everpure (NYSE: P) has evolved from storage pioneer to data platform, closing fiscal 2026 with $3.7 billion in revenue, its first billion-dollar quarter, and accelerating growth into FY27. Our strategic agenda spans the companies defining the next era of technology - hyperscalers, AI labs, the AI hardware supply chain, data platform providers, and the broader AI ecosystem.

This type of work—work that changes the world—is what the tech industry was founded on. So, if you're ready to seize the endless opportunities and leave your mark, come join us.

THE ROLE

The Hyperscale Line of Business builds and ships products to hyperscale customers at exabyte scale, with an emphasis on speed, reliability, and operational excellence. The Build Platform and Tools team owns the developer productivity infrastructure (build orchestration, build systems, and containerized build environments) that every engineer in the organization depends on daily to build and test software.

We’re looking for a Staff Software Engineer to set the technical direction for that platform and to solve its hardest problems. You’ll define the multi-year architecture for build infrastructure across the Hyperscale org, lead the highest-ambiguity technical work yourself, and raise the engineering bar of the teams around you. Your success is measured less by what you personally ship than by how much faster the entire Hyperscale engineering organization moves.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

  • Own the technical vision and multi-year architecture for build orchestration, build systems, and containerized build environments across the Hyperscale Line of Business
  • Make and document the consequential architectural decisions: build system selection and migration, remote execution and caching strategy, hermeticity and reproducibility guarantees, and the tradeoffs each imposes on developers
  • Drive step-change improvements to build speed, reliability, reproducibility, debuggability, and ease of use across local development and CI workflows
  • Solve large-scale C/C++ build challenges at their root: dependency graph decomposition and pruning, static/dynamic linking tradeoffs, toolchain and sysroot management, and incremental correctness
  • Diagnose and eliminate whole classes of build-graph correctness issues, flaky builds, and incremental-build regressions rather than individual instances
  • Define the standards for containerized build environments - consistent, isolated, reproducible images with a clear lifecycle and upgrade path
  • Partner with the engineering manager to shape the team’s roadmap, sequence investments, and make explicit tradeoffs between platform work and near-term product delivery
  • Influence and align engineering leaders and teams across Hyperscale and the broader organization on tooling direction, migration plans, and shared standards.
  • Set the operational excellence bar for build infrastructure: observability, incident response, change management, capacity planning, and continuous improvement.
  • Establish the engineering metrics that define developer experience, and use them to justify investment and demonstrate impact
  • Mentor senior and mid-level engineers, review designs across the team, and grow the technical depth of the organization in build systems and developer productivity
  • Represent the team in org-wide technical forums, design reviews, and planning; act as the recognized expert on build infrastructure.
  • We are primarily an in-office environment and therefore, you will be expected to work from the Santa Clara office in compliance with Everpure’s policies, unless you are on PTO, or work travel, or other approved leave.

WHAT YOU BRING

  • Software engineering experience, with significant depth in infrastructure, developer productivity, build systems, or platform engineering
  • A track record of setting technical direction for a platform used by many engineering teams, and of leading multi-team or multi-quarter technical initiatives to completion
  • Deep expertise in modern build systems and toolchains with dependency management, build-graph correctness, incremental and reproducible builds, remote execution and caching, artifact generation, and build isolation
  • Hands-on depth with build systems and toolchains such as Make, CMake, Buck/Bazel, or custom/in-house build orchestration tools, including experience evolving or migrating a build system in production
  • Deep experience with large-scale C/C++ builds: dependency pruning, static/dynamic linking tradeoffs, toolchain management, and reproducible containerized builds
  • Strong command of Linux-based development environments, Docker, and the operational concerns of maintaining consistent build images and execution environments at scale
  • Experience designing and operating CI pipelines and integrating build tooling into continuous integration workflows
  • Demonstrated use of engineering metrics to evaluate and improve build performance, reliability, and developer experience and to make the case for investment
  • Excellent communication and written design skills, and a history of influencing technical decisions across organizational boundaries
  • Experience mentoring engineers and raising the technical standards of a team
