Engineering Manager, ObjectStore & Fusion at Purestorage

We’re in an unbelievably exciting area of tech and are fundamentally reshaping the data storage industry. Here, you lead with innovative thinking, grow along with us, and join the smartest team in the industry. This type of work—work that changes the world—is what the tech industry was founded on. So, if you're ready to seize the endless opportunities and leave your mark, come join us. THE ROLE As an Engineering Manager for the ObjectStore & Fusion team, you will lead a Prague-based systems engineering team responsible for the high-performance Amazon S3–compatible object experience across the Everpure Platform. Your mission is to scale our fleet-level data management capabilities, enabling customers to power modern AI, analytics, and cloud-native workloads. You will partner closely with Product and Architecture teams to define the technical strategy for object storage while guiding a talented team through the evolution of an early-stage, high-impact product area. WHAT YOU’LL DO • Drive Technical Delivery: Lead the execution of complex, cross-functional roadmaps spanning object protocols, metadata, and multi-array workflows to ensure predictable, high-quality releases. • Own the Object Fusion roadmap in partnership with product and architecture, aligning S3 feature development, performance, and scalability with Everpure’s broader file/object and Fusion strategies. • Cultivate Engineering Excellence: Foster a high-trust, inclusive team culture by providing consistent coaching, removing technical blockers, and establishing rigorous design review and testing standards. • Scale the Everpure Platform: Own the Object Fusion strategy in collaboration with global partners, aligning S3 feature development with broader performance and scalability goals for our FlashBlade and FlashArray platforms. • Collaborate across geographies and teams (FlashBlade, Fusion, Cloud, Support, Product Management) to align priorities, unblock dependencies, and ensure a cohesive customer experience across file, object, and fleet views. WHAT YOU BRING • Engineering Leadership: Proven experience leading software engineering teams through the delivery of complex, distributed production systems. You have a track record of coaching engineers, setting clear performance expectations, and fostering healthy, high-growth team environments. • Technical Acumen: A strong foundation in distributed systems, storage, or SaaS; you possess the technical depth to guide design trade-offs and have a background in hands-on development for large-scale environments. • Track record of leading end‑to‑end delivery of multi‑quarter projects, including planning, execution, risk management, and cross‑team coordination in a highly technical environment. • Strategic Execution: A track record of managing multi-quarter projects from design to rollout, demonstrating the ability to balance long-term technical debt with immediate business needs in a fast-paced environment. • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, able to influence across geographies, functions, and seniority levels, and to explain complex technical topics in clear, outcome‑oriented language. We are primarily an in-office environment and therefore, you will be expected to work from the Prague office in compliance with Everpure’s policies, unless you are on PTO, or work travel, or other approved leave. #LI-ONSITE WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM US: • Innovation: We celebrate those who think critically, like a challenge, and aspire to be trailblazers. • Growth: We give you the space and support to grow along with us and to contribute to something meaningful. We have been named Fortune's Best Workplaces in Technology™, Fortune's Best Workplaces in the Bay Area™, and certified as a Great Place to Work®! • Team: We build each other up and set aside ego for the greater good.
