 **Atomic HR**

### Company Overview:

Our client is a publicly traded cloud storage company with two flagship products: a personal computer backup solution and a cloud object storage platform often compared to Amazon S3 — but chosen for its pricing and a no-egress-fees policy that has made it a go-to for cost-conscious builders. They run their own physical data centers (4 in the U.S., plus Netherlands and Canada), and their engineering culture is unusually transparent — they publish deep technical blog posts and hardware reliability reports that the industry actually reads. They’re expanding globally, with active hiring across LATAM, India, and the Philippines. This isn’t a company that abstracts away the hard parts; they own the stack, and it shows.

### Your Role:

The Storage Platform team owns the foundational durable storage layer that every product is built on top of. Their job — and yours — is to make sure data doesn’t get lost, performance holds at scale, and the architecture is ready for the next decade of growth. This is an open-ended, ambiguous, systems-close-to-the-metal role: you’ll be investigating unclear symptoms, optimizing for specific hardware behaviors, improving throughput, and helping redesign components that general-purpose tools can no longer handle well. You’ll be fully embedded with the U.S. team — not a satellite — which means deep collaboration, clear communication, and real ownership.

### You’ll:

- Build and evolve a storage platform operating at cloud scale — we’re talking exabyte-level storage with real durability constraints
- Optimize for different hard drive and hardware characteristics, improving throughput and reducing error rates across hardware failure modes
- Troubleshoot ambiguous, symptom-driven problems where the signal is limited and the root cause isn’t obvious
- Contribute to major architectural upgrades that will support the platform for the next 5–10 years — including support for emerging storage technologies
- Take ownership of parts of the stack where general-purpose components stop being the right fit
- Improve hardware utilization and efficiency as the business grows upmarket and scale increases
- Collaborate closely with a distributed team — coordinating, problem-solving, and communicating across time zones daily

### You Bring:

- Strong software engineering fundamentals with comfort operating lower in the stack
- Experience with complex systems where performance, reliability, and cost actually matter
- A genuine ability to work through ambiguity — you can navigate limited signal and multiple possible causes without getting stuck
- Solid collaboration and communication skills in English (strong enough for deep technical conversations)
- Proficiency in **Java**, or meaningful experience in adjacent languages (C, C++, C#, **Rust**) — fundamentals matter more than the specific language
- A track record of shipping in environments where engineering decisions have real downstream consequences

### Bonus points:

- Experience working with hardware or systems tightly coupled to hardware behavior
- Exposure to **Rust**or interest in growing into it
- Breadth across different systems and types of projects over time

### What They Offer:

- Fully remote contractor role based in LATAM (currently focused on Costa Rica, Mexico, Chile, and Colombia)
- Competitive USD compensation: $50K–$90K base (location/market-adjusted) plus ~10% bonus
- Full integration with the U.S. engineering team — real ownership, not a satellite setup
- A chance to work on infrastructure that underpins real customer data at meaningful scale
- A company with an unusually transparent engineering culture and a strong technical reputation

### Interview Process:

1️⃣ Recruiter Screen — behavioral alignment, comp, logistics, and a few targeted questions
2️⃣ Technical Phone Screen — with a lead engineer from the Storage Platform team
3️⃣ Panel Interviews (×3) — ranging from lower-level coding to higher-level system design topics
