Most storage jobs are console administration: provision a LUN, hand it over, close the ticket. This one is not. We build, own and operate our own private cloud on our own hardware, and storage runs the whole way from the enterprise arrays through Ceph to the persistent volume a container actually mounts. You would own that path end to end, and you would own the thing most organisations only claim to have, which is a restore that has been proven rather than assumed.
What you would own
- Kubernetes-native storage. Rook and Ceph, the CSI layer, StorageClasses, and how a persistent volume claim becomes real capacity. This is the centre of the role, not an adjunct to it.
- Provable backup and restore. Not just that backups ran, but that a restore has been performed, timed and witnessed. You would own the evidence, and the schedule that keeps it current.
- The enterprise arrays. Pure Storage and NetApp, including snapshots, replication, provisioning, capacity planning and performance work.
- Disaster recovery. Designing the tests, running them, and fixing what they expose.



RPO and RTO you can defend with a number rather than an intention.
- The storage standard. Documentation, monitoring, alerting on failure rather than on absence of success, and the capacity roadmap.

What the first year looks like
- Establish provable backup and restore across every tenant and platform system, with independently witnessed evidence. This is a stated company priority, and it would be yours.
- Bring Ceph and the Kubernetes storage layer under the same operational standard as the arrays.
- Run at least one full DR exercise end to end and close what it uncovers.
- Remove the single points of knowledge, so no part of the storage estate depends on one person being reachable.

What we need you to have done
Two hard requirements for this role.

1. Kubernetes storage, hands-on in production. Rook and Ceph, or a CSI driver you have operated. You should be able to explain what happens between a per
