We are seeking a Senior Backend Software Engineer to join the Control Plane team for the DDN
Infinia AI Data Platform. This role is critical in building the core backend services that power
manageability, API-driven control, automation, and intelligent supportability across large-scale
hybrid (OnPrem + cloud) environments. You will design and develop highly scalable, secure, and resilient backend systems that enable centralized orchestration, lifecycle management, policy enforcement, and integration with external systems. This role also involves enhancing API frameworks, improving supportability, and embedding security best practices across the platform. This is a hands-on technical leadership role focused on building foundational services that operate reliably at petabyte scale and support mission-critical AI/data workloads.
Key Responsibilities
Design and build scalable, high-performance distributed backend services powering the platform control plane.
Develop APIs for centralized management of storage and compute across multi-region hybrid (OnPrem + cloud) environments.
Architect and implement resilient microservices with robust consistency, fault tolerance, high availability, and low latency at petabyte scale.
Contribute to the evolution of an API-first platform, designing clean, versioned, extensible
APIs (REST/gRPC) for control, automation, and integration.
Own API lifecycle management including versioning, backward compatibility, deprecation strategies, and governance; ensure APIs are intuitive, consistent, and well-documented.
Enable APIs to support automation, policy-driven workflows, and ecosystem integrations.
Build backend systems supporting provisioning, scaling, upgrades, configuration, and full
lifecycle management.
Implement policy-driven orchestration and Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) integrations.
Support RBAC, multi-tenancy, and enterprise-grade self-service capabilities.
Instrument services with logs, metrics, traces, and events to enable deep obs
