Senior Software Engineer.

MinIO is the data and memory foundation for enterprise AI. Built for the speed, scale, and economics that AI and analytics demand, AIStor and MemKV unify every layer of the data stack, from agentic and inference context memory to tables and objects across core, edge, and cloud. Trusted by 77% of the Fortune 100, MinIO is redefining how AI factories, intelligent applications, and autonomous agents secure, persist, and unlock the full value of their data.

We’re building the complete data stack for AI — exascale object store, table store, agent memory, and brain: every layer of how AI stores, retrieves, and thinks over data. Hard problems with no existing answers. Bring your own.

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
• Operating Systems, Networking, Systems Programming, Distributed Systems, Storage Engines, Vector/Graph Retrieval, Low -Latency I/O, and Protocol Design

MinIO Engineering Culture:

• All leads, architects and ICs — no managers
• Full ownership from day one, no permission
  needed
• Decisions made by the people doing the work
• Craftsmanship is a first-class engineering
  concern
• No sprints. No standups. No Jira.

What We Offer:

• Health Care Plan (Medical, Dental & Vision)
• 401K with 3% Contribution
• Pre-IPO Stock Options
• At least 12 Public Holidays
• Flexible Time Off
