What you will do:
You’ll own problems end-to-end — the kind most engineering teams never get close to. No ticket queues, no standups, no permission. Just you, the codebase, and a team of people who care as much as you do. Everyone here is an IC, an architect, or a lead — most are all three.
Your Skills and Experience:
Deep OS internals. Networking from the socket layer up. Strong opinions on memory, concurrency, and correctness — and the humility to revise them. You’ve debugged something no one else could reproduce.You’ve read source code not because you had to, but because it was bothering you.
Key Competencies:
Fluent in ≥2 languages, honest about tradeoffs
You debug by understanding, not by guessing
Grit: you start hard things and finish them
Curiosity you genuinely can’t switch off
Low ego, extremely high standards
You write code the next engineer respects
MinIO Engineering Culture:
All leads, architects and ICs — no managers
Full ownership from day one, no permission
