Build the storage foundation that powers containerized workloads at the edge. On the Azure Container Storage enabled by Azure Arc (ACSA) team, you’ll work on robust, secure storage systems that operate in some of the most demanding customer environments—far from the cloud, close to where data is created. You’ll collaborate with engineers who are deeply invested in systems correctness, performance, and reliability, and you’ll see your work directly enable real‑world customer scenarios running Docker- and Kubernetes-based workloads at the edge.

As a Senior Software Engineer on the ACSA team, you will design, build, test, and support distributed storage capabilities for containerized platforms. You’ll work primarily in Go, with opportunities to contribute to Rust-based components, while partnering closely with experts in storage systems, systems programming, and Kubernetes. This role will allow you to accelerate your technical growth, deepen your understanding of cloud‑to‑edge architectures, gain hands‑on experience integrating open‑source technologies into a commercial product, and build software that operates at the intersection of reliability, security, and scale. This position offers flexible work options, with team members working either in a hybrid model (three days in the office) or fully remote.
