Principal Software Engineer
INFINIDAT
At Infinidat, a Lenovo company, we empower enterprises and service providers with cutting-edge storage platforms that redefine performance, reliability, and cyber resilience at scale. Infinidat builds enterprise storage systems trusted by the world's most demanding data centers. Our Professional Services team develops and maintains a portfolio of storage management and automation tools that extend InfiniBox capabilities across the heterogeneous environments our customers run.
This is a core engineering role on a small, high-ownership team. There is no dedicated QA, no separate DevOps function, no product manager. The engineer in this role is responsible for the full development lifecycle across the entire portfolio: architecture, implementation, testing, packaging, build pipelines, and release.
The team's solutions must run reliably across a wide range of host operating systems and hypervisors - Linux, Windows, AIX, Solaris, VMware ESX/vCenter, Hyper-V, and Oracle Linux VM - as well as Podman-containerized deployments and Ansible-automated workflows.
If you want to own a meaningful portfolio end-to-end with minimal hand-holding, this role delivers that.
Core Development
- Design, implement, and maintain Python CLI tools (AADM, SnapSync) and their shared domain libraries
- Develop and extend the Infinidat Ansible Collection modules covering InfiniBox volumes, hosts, clusters, exports, snapshots, network spaces, and more
- Maintain and evolve the IPAT performance alerting service, deployed as a Podman-managed containerized application
- Extend host and hypervisor integration across Linux, Windows, AIX, Solaris, VMware ESX/vCenter, Hyper-V, and Oracle Linux VM
- Maintain InfiniBox and InfiniMetrics REST API and InfiniSDK integrations across the portfolio
- Build and improve AI-assisted exception triage pipelines (AADM, SnapSync)
Build, Packaging, and Release
- Own multi-distribution build systems: Docker-based builder containers, RPM and DEB packaging for RHEL, Rocky, Oracle Linux, and Ubuntu - Maintain GitLab CI/CD pipelines and release tooling across all projects
- Manage release cycles: tag, validate, and promote builds through unstable → stable → external channels
- Publish Ansible Collection releases to Ansible Galaxy and the internal GitLab registry
Quality and Reliability
- Design and maintain unit and acceptance test suites
- Investigate and root-cause field exceptions; own the triage-to-fix lifecycle
- Validate releases against the acceptance test matrix before promotion
Process and Operations
- Maintain Jira workflow and release notes across the portfolio
- Keep technical documentation current as tools evolve
- At least 7 years of Python development with a focus on systems or CLI tooling - not web frameworks
- Demonstrated enterprise storage background: block storage, NAS, replication, host connectivity via FC or iSCSI
- Strong Linux systems proficiency across multiple distributions (RHEL/Rocky, Ubuntu); direct experience building and publishing RPM and DEB packages
- Experience with remote host communication via SSH (paramiko or equivalent) and WinRM
- Container-based build and deployment experience (Docker and/or Podman)
- CI/CD pipeline experience (GitLab CI or equivalent)
- Strong written communication; this team operates async-first across time zones
Preferred Requirements
- Ansible module or collection development; familiarity with Ansible Galaxy publishing
- Direct Infinidat InfiniBox or competitive enterprise array experience (NetApp, Pure, EMC)
- Hypervisor integration experience: VMware ESX/vCenter (pyvmomi), Hyper-V, or Oracle Linux VM
- Windows and AIX host management
- SQLAlchemy or similar Python ORM
- AI-assisted tooling integration
- Experience with Podman quadlets and systemd service management
