Based on an in-depth understanding of the customer requirements and storage technology trends, architect and deliver compelling storage solutions to the largest cloud providers with the right balance between performance and cost.

What You Will Do:

  • Engage strategic storage vendors (HDD, SSD, RAID, HBA, JBOD enclosures, chassis port expander) in developing compelling storage solutions for customers. Identify opportunities to partner with vendors on optimized and validated solutions for customer workloads.
  • Work very closely with storage product managers to coordinate all vendor engagements to successfully achieve all of the company's business goals.
  • Assess existing storage solutions being sold to customers today. Develop a roadmap for next generation storage products based on existing storage products. Identify storage roadmap gaps. Work with senior management on determining viability of closing roadmap gaps with new storage products.
  • Monitor storage solutions from across the industry that includes DAS, SAN, NAS, NAND-based, PCIe connected, and Cold Store. Develop collateral and train the sales team on the strengths and weaknesses of ZT storage products.
  • Develop and maintain in-depth understanding of industry standard storage workloads and trends in connectivity.
  • Work with quality and reliability engineers (QRE) to monitor quality of deployed storage solutions in the field. Use this data in assessing new storage offerings from vendors.


What You Will Bring:
  • BS degree - preferably in computer engineering, electrical engineering, or software engineering - with 12+ years of experience (alternatively a MS and 10+ years).
  • Hands-on experience in running storage-based benchmarks (Orion, IOMeter, SPC). Ability to interpret results and optimize solutions for specific workloads that may be sensitive to IOPs, latency, or other performance metrics as defined by the customer.
  • Experience working in globally dispersed teams.
  • Ability to provide both technology, reliability, and cost assessments on new storage product offerings.
  • Track record of being able to course correct in a highly volatile business environment based on new requirements or updated information.
  • Experience in architecting cloud-based storage solutions.
  • Strong network and relationships in the storage community (highly desired).
