This is a unique opportunity to join one of the fastest-growing infrastructure companies in history—at the heart of the AI revolution. “VAST’s data management vision is the future of the market.” – Forbes. At VAST, we’re building the data platform for the AI era—software infrastructure that powers the capture, refinement, protection, and activation of massive datasets across data center, edge, and cloud. Our platform is redefining what’s possible in high-performance, scalable data systems, and we’re just getting started.

This role is perfect for a developer who thrives on deep problem‑solving, understands systems at the low level, and wants to have a direct line of sight to customer impact.

Requirements

Strong development skills in C, C++, or Python

Systems programming experience and the ability to work close to the OS/kernel level

Solid understanding of networking concepts (e.g., TCP/IP, OSI layers)

Familiarity with version control tools (e.g., Git)

Experience or interest in storage systems, file systems, or block‑level storage (a plus)
