SwiftStack - <a href="http://swiftstack.com/jobs" > - San Francisco, CA (preferred, will relocate)
We're a storage company focused on solving a lot of the hard problems around deploying and managing scalable storage systems. We build a management controller [0] around the OpenStack Swift [1] storage engine, and we sell that controller to customers. Some of our customers include eBay, PAC-12, and HP [2]. Our focus is on ensuring that the OpenStack Swift storage engine is well integrated into enterprise IT infrastructure and processes. This means we spend a lot of time automating day-to-day operations tasks, providing good visualization of monitoring data, integrating with auth systems, selecting hardware, building utilization tools, and on and on.
But we also get to build against new technologies[3], actively contribute to open source[4], and partner with major companies to build cool new features into Swift[5].
Interested? Send us an email at jobs+REDACTED_EMAIL. Tell us who you are, why you're interested in SwiftStack, and why we'll be interested in you. We'll get in touch with you shortly to continue the conversation.
