PURE IN PRAGUE

We opened our R&D Second Home (besides the one in Silicon Valley) in Prague in January 2020 and since then we have experienced unbelievable growth. Our Engineers are solving complex engineering problems (from low-level system software to cloud computing) that help us innovate our cutting-edge products. Besides our world-class Software Engineering teams, we have many other talented colleagues working in Product Management, Sales, Finance, and HR to name a few. What’s more, we’ve developed these teams from talent across the globe.

FLASHARRAY

Our customers love our flagship product FlashArray, for its simplicity of management, a constant flow of new and exciting innovation and its ability to expand on cutting-edge technology with no downtime, ever. Most recently, we extended the value of our FlashArray capabilities into the cloud with CloudSnap and Cloud Block Store for AWS. These new innovations enable our customers to leverage the agility of the public cloud for both traditional IT and cloud-native applications. 

To help FlashArray remain an industry-leading product, our team in Prague is developing core and groundbreaking features for our customers across the globe. Data has no boundaries and with it, our engineering reach to tackle problems in the Data domain being in the cloud, private data centers, or the hybrid cloud. We are seeking engineers to solve tough problems and leapfrog us in the as-a-service model. Be part of the change, don't wait for one!

ENGINEERING PRODUCTIVITY

The Platform Automation Engineering team is a team consisting of C++/Python engineers with the focus to build platform solutions to enable engineering feature development. The engineers who join this team will have the opportunity to work on our core software - Purity by developing/enhancing feature sets that will allow us to build platform solutions. One such example is the Post Test Analysis (PTA) which is an extensible platform that automatically process, evaluates, and analyses automated test failures, and notifies and reconfigures other part of engineering productivity infrastructure. Why is this important? We are a customer focus company and customer experience is the key measure of success. To achieve this, every piece of code we deliver to our customers must be of the highest quality possible, and to that, we must test every piece of code in as many dimensions as possible. Working with such a large scale of (often low-level) automated tests would consume many hours of our engineers, thus PTA makes most of hard work for them.

  • Develop and extend our post test analysis platform.
  • Develop automated test framework and infrastructure for all-flash storage arrays.
  • Improve product quality and reliability of automated testing infrastructure.
  • Collaborate with world-class storage engineers to define test automation requirements by participating in product design reviews.
  • Find new ways to develop more efficient product leveraging open-source technologies
  • Collaborate with support, release, engineering and management teams to improve product quality by increasing automated test coverage.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED TO BRING TO THIS ROLE...

  • You enjoy software test automation and build test platforms to improve the quality of code delivery.
  • Software development experience, preferably in or have interest in Python.
  • Experience with working or interacting with Unix/Linux systems.
  • Experience with Test-Driven Development, and Continuous Integration.
  • Experience with networking and storage protocols and management a plus.
  • Experience in development and testing of RESTful web services and backend APIs a plus.
  • Tech Stack: Python, C/C++, Linux, container technologies, and more.
  • You are comfortable with a collaborative, transparent and agile environment.

You will be based in Prague, Czech Republic. As this is an office-centric role, you are expected to be present in the office for 4 days a week. As outlined in Pure’s Hybrid Work Policy, there will be variations over periods of time, depending on business need.
