Job Overview:
We are looking for an experienced Senior Backup Software Engineer to design, develop, and optimize advanced backup software for enterprise environments. The ideal candidate will have deep expertise in developing backup solutions for virtual machines (VMs), Network Attached Storage (NAS), and hybrid environments (local and cloud), with experience using AI tools to streamline software development processes. You will play a key role in strengthening enterprise-grade backup offerings, ensuring high performance, reliability, and security.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design and develop robust backup and restore software for virtualized environments (e.g., VMware, Hyper-V), NAS devices, and cloud-based storage systems.
- Utilize AI tools during software development to enhance code quality, automate testing, optimize algorithms, or improve development workflows.
- Implement advanced features such as incremental backups, deduplication, compression, and encryption.
- Integrate backup solutions with major cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud).
- Troubleshoot and resolve complex technical issues related to backup and recovery processes.
- Stay current on industry trends and emerging technologies to drive innovation in backup solutions.
Required Qualifications:
- 5+ years of professional experience in developing backup-specific software for enterprise environments.
- Proven expertise in backup solutions for virtual machines (VMware, Hyper-V), NAS, and local-to-cloud or hybrid storage systems.
- Experience using AI tools (e.g., code generation, automated debugging, or optimization tools) to enhance software development processes.
- Strong programming skills in languages such as C++, Python, Java, or Go.
- Experience with backup protocols and technologies (e.g., VSS, CBT, RMAN, NDMP).
- Familiarity with cloud storage APIs and platforms (AWS S3, Azure Blob Storage, Google Cloud Storage).
- Knowledge of data deduplication, compression, and encryption techniques.
- Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work in a fast-paced, on-site environment.
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience with containerized environments (Docker, Kubernetes) and their backup requirements.
- Familiarity with enterprise-grade backup software (e.g., Veeam, Commvault, Veritas).
- Knowledge of disaster recovery and business continuity planning.
- Experience with performance tuning and optimization of large-scale backup systems.
- Contributions to open-source backup or storage projects are a plus.
