About WEKA

WEKA is architecting a new approach to the enterprise data stack built for the age of reasoning. NeuralMesh by WEKA, sets the standard for agentic AI data infrastructure with a cloud and AI-native software solution that can be deployed anywhere. It transforms legacy data silos into data pipelines that dramatically increase GPU utilization and make AI model training and inference, machine learning, and other compute-intensive workloads run faster, work more efficiently, and consume less energy.

WEKA is a pre-IPO, growth-stage company on a hyper-growth trajectory. We’ve raised $375M in capital with dozens of world-class venture capital and strategic investors. We help the world’s largest and most innovative enterprises and research organizations, including 12 of the Fortune 50, achieve discoveries, insights, and business outcomes faster and more sustainably.

What you'll be doing

We are looking for a highly technical and experienced Engineering Manager to lead multiple engineering teams within our Platform Group.

The Platform Group owns the critical layer where WEKA's software meets the hardware, enabling exceptional performance and scalability across our distributed storage infrastructure.

The group develops some of the most performance-sensitive components in our system, spanning high-speed networking (RDMA, DPDK, InfiniBand), NVMe storage access, memory management, and low-level Linux components.

Operating at the critical path of every I/O operation, the Platform Group tackles complex engineering challenges at the intersection of networking, storage, operating systems, and hardware optimization.

This is an opportunity to lead highly skilled engineering teams while remaining deeply involved in technical strategy, architecture, and critical engineering decisions that directly impact WEKA's performance and scalability.

As an Engineering Manager, you'll:

  • Lead, mentor, and develop multiple teams of highly skilled software engineers working on complex, low-level infrastructure.
  • Drive technical strategy, architecture, and execution across critical Platform components, ensuring high performance, scalability, and reliability.
  • Provide strong technical leadership, actively participating in architectural discussions, challenging technical decisions, and guiding teams through complex engineering trade-offs.
  • Oversee the development and optimization of performance-critical systems across networking, storage, and low-level Linux infrastructure.
  • Drive engineering excellence, technical quality, and execution while identifying opportunities for performance and architectural improvements.
  • Collaborate closely with architects, engineering leaders, and cross-functional teams to align technical priorities with product and business objectives.
  • Build and develop high-performing teams, foster technical leadership, and establish a culture of ownership, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

Requirements

  • 10+ years of software development experience, with a strong technical foundation in low-level systems programming using C/C++.
  • Proven experience managing multiple software engineering teams, with the ability to lead senior engineers and technical leaders.
  • Deep technical expertise in Linux-based systems, low-level software development, and performance-sensitive infrastructure.
  • Strong technical background in at least one of the following areas: high-performance networking, storage I/O, or Linux systems.
  • Solid understanding of system-level performance optimization, memory management, and hardware-software interactions.
  • Experience designing, developing, or leading complex, large-scale, distributed or high-performance systems.
  • Ability to lead complex architectural discussions, evaluate technical trade-offs, and provide meaningful technical guidance.
  • Strong leadership, communication, and execution skills, with a proven ability to build and develop high-performing engineering teams.

It's nice if you have:

  • Hands-on experience with high-performance networking technologies such as RDMA, DPDK, InfiniBand, or RoCE.
  • Experience with NVMe, SPDK, or high-performance storage systems.
  • Experience with Linux Kernel internals, filesystem drivers, or kernel-level development.
  • Familiarity with advanced memory management and performance optimization techniques, including NUMA, huge pages, or eBPF/XDP.
  • Experience with NVIDIA/Mellanox networking technologies, high-bandwidth Ethernet, DPUs, or GPUDirect Storage.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
