Job Description:

At Cloudera, we empower people to transform complex data into clear and actionable insights. With as much data under management as the hyperscalers, we're the preferred data partner for the top companies in almost every industry. Powered by the relentless innovation of the open source community, Cloudera advances digital transformation for the world's largest enterprises.

The Data Platform Pillar is the bedrock of Cloudera's technology, where we design and build the core components that let our customers store, manage, and process data with unmatched scalability, security, and performance.

Cloudera is looking for a strong engineering leader with a distributed systems background to lead a team within the Storage Engineering group, focused on building Apache Ozone and Apache HDFS. The Storage team is responsible for primary storage and storage access layers, which are core to the Cloudera Data Platform.

Apache Ozone is an open source, massively scalable, distributed object store with a distributed file system interface. Ozone is designed to scale to tens of billions of files and blocks, and overcome the limitations of Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS), namely, millions of small files and managing a huge number of data nodes.

Ozone is one of the fastest-growing products inside CDP in terms of customer adoption and expansion revenue. This is an opportunity to lead a team that created and wrote most of the Ozone code and make a huge impact on the big data storage industry.
