DDN is trusted in some of the world’s most demanding data environments, and we’re hiring a Block Storage Engineer to help build and evolve storage systems where performance, resilience, and architecture quality matter every day.

This is not a generic software role. It is for engineers who want to work close to the metal, solve hard systems problems, and make a measurable impact in storage.

At DDN, storage is not a side concern. It is core to the platform, the product, and the value we deliver.

You’ll work on block storage architecture, contribute in C/C++, and help shape systems that must perform under real-world scale and complexity. If you want deeper technical ownership, stronger engineering challenges, and work that will be respected by other serious infrastructure engineers, this role is built for that.
- What you’ll do
- Design, develop, and enhance block storage systems and core architecture
- Build high-performance systems software using C and/or C++:
- Work across storage environments and protocols including SAN/NAS:
- Improve system performance, reliability, scalability,



and maintainability
- Contribute to architectural decisions for core storage capabilities
- Diagnose and solve complex storage issues at the systems level
- Collaborate with engineering teams to deliver robust storage functionality for demanding production environments
- Contribute to the evolution of up-to-date storage platforms, including distributed block storage patterns where relevant

What we’re looking for
- 5 to 20 years of professional experience
- Strong hands-on experience in C and/or C++:
- Good experience with SAN/NAS:
- Clear depth in block storage architecture:
- Current or recent experience in storage-focused engineering roles
- A strong systems mindset with comfort working on low-level, performance-sensitive components

Good to have
- Experience with distributed block storage:
- Background in enterprise storage, infrastructure software, or systems engineering
- Experience w
