The VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) Division enables organizations around the world to run their business critical and modern applications in a secure, resilient, and cost-efficient manner.
The Storage and Data Protection group is responsible for the full data lifecycle across the VMware stack, covering primary, secondary, and hyperscaler storage, as well as cloud-native storage for modern applications. The group delivers a comprehensive suite of data services, data protection, and recovery solutions, ensuring that data—whether in virtual machines or containers—remains resilient, accessible, and secure across the private and hybrid cloud.

Job Description:

You will oversee the design, reliability, scalability, performance , CSI drivers , volume provisioning frameworks, persistent volume management and data services (snapshotting, replication, encryption, policy).
This is a deep technical leadership role that combines distributed systems, storage internals, Kubernetes architecture and organizational leadership to deliver high performance, highly reliable storage solutions.

Job Role and Responsibility:
● Lead a high-performing technical team through the entire product lifecycle, from conception and design to deployment and continuous improvement.
● Define technical roadmaps, managing resource allocation, fostering a culture of innovation and accountability, and ensuring all product deliverables meet stringent quality standards and align with the overarching company vision.
● Mentor ICs and managers; drive engineering excellence, clarity, ownership, and inclusion.

● Partner with Product Management and executive leadership to define product roadmaps, technical requirements and project milestones.
● Work collaboratively with other Engineering organizations during the development, launch, and continuing refinement of VMware container technologies.
● Oversee the complete Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), covering the design, coding, testing, and deployment phases for scalable container solutions.

• Demonstrate a strong capacity for self-starting and maintaining productivity with minimal day-to-day oversight. This involves taking ownership of tasks, proactively identifying next steps, and solving problems independently to drive projects forward, requiring the ability to manage complex assignments from inception to completion without constant guidance.
