Member of Technical Staff

We’re in an unbelievably exciting area of tech and are fundamentally reshaping the data storage industry. Here, you lead with innovative thinking, grow along with us, and join the smartest team in the industry.

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

The Fleet Insights team operates at the intersection of software engineering, data engineering, and cloud-scale observability. We build the backend intelligence that helps Pure Storage operate one of the most advanced storage fleets in the world. Our systems continuously ingest and analyze massive volumes of telemetry and log data to deliver actionable insights, drive root-cause automation, and transform how we support customers globally.

As a Senior Staff Engineer you will lead technical strategy and architectural evolution for highly reliable, high-throughput services that power Pure’s fleet observability. You will partner with engineers across the company to identify systemic issues, design scalable platform solutions, and ship innovative, customer-impacting capabilities. You will be both a deep systems builder and a mentor—amplifying team impact through design leadership, technical influence, and hands-on contributions.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Architect and implement large-scale, distributed systems for telemetry ingestion, analysis, and classification—designed for six 9’s availability.
• Design creative, scalable algorithms for log correlation, real-time event detection, and fault prediction.
• Drive high-impact technical initiatives across multiple teams, aligning long-term architecture with product and platform goals.
• Own the full lifecycle of innovation—from ideation and prototyping to shipped services in production.
• Collaborate with peers across engineering, support, and product to define service responsibilities, APIs, and operational models.
