SHOULD YOU ACCEPT THIS CHALLENGE...

Join Pure Storage’s Fusion team, where we’re reshaping the way enterprises manage, secure, monitor, and optimize their storage infrastructure. Recognized by Gartner for our visionary approach, Fusion unifies block, file, and object protocols with advanced AI-driven capabilities—while you lead the charge on security hardening and next-level observability. You’ll collaborate with teams in Silicon Valley and Prague, forging the future of data management in a truly global environment.

We are seeking a talented and experienced Principal Software Engineer to join our team. The ideal candidate will have extensive experience designing, implementing and optimizing highly available and secure solutions implemented in Go and Java. You also will:

• Design, develop and implement features to extend storage capabilities over multi arrays deployments in a scalable, secure and highly available manner.
• Optimize the existing features so that they scale better, meet higher performance criteria and/or are more secure.
• Contribute towards architecture, design, codebase and processes so that feature teams can productize features more efficiently.
• Provide technical leadership and guidance to development teams on best practices for developing, deploying and operating features.
• Participate in planning the product roadmap and analyzing the scope of the newly developed features.
• Beyond your core responsibilities, you’ll play a pivotal role in developing the product that defines our future. At Pure Storage, Fusion isn’t just a project - it’s the foundation of our vision for the future of storage.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED TO BRING TO THIS ROLE...

• Minimum of 15 years of experience designing and implementing software.
• Experience with system software engineering in Go or Java.
• At least basic knowledge of security and observability standards, and be able to perform performance benchmarking and optimization.
• Ability to design and implement highly scalable, reliable, and secure software. You should understand parallel computing and asynchronous programming models.
• Ability to quickly understand the existing implementation and adapt the solutions to reflect the current codebase.
• You are a confident communicator and exemplary leader so that the best-practices are spread and adopted among the feature teams.
• Familiarity with DevOps practices and ability to maintain and improve continuous integration and continuous delivery pipelines and processes of our product in order to improve efficiency of the teams.
• Additionally, resiliency, team spirit, and a good sense of humor are welcome.

We are primarily an in-office environment and therefore, you will be expected to work from the Prague office in compliance with Pure’s policies, unless you are on PTO, or work travel, or other approved leave.
