**Hungry, Humble, Honest, with Heart.** **The Opportunity** You’ll be working with a team of highly talented engineers across a spectrum of geographies and experiences. The most successful candidate for this role will be someone who: + Constantly look for ways to improve the product, learning from customer questions and not limited to existing technologies. + Devise solutions and back them up with solid research and numbers to prove their efficacy. + Can convey ideas to a geographically diverse audience using excellent communication/writing skills. + Participate in design discussions, often outside one’s known comfort zone—learning on the go. + Proactively mentor junior team members, finding ways to fuel their intellectual curiosity and leverage their unique strengths. + Not hesitate to help with occasional customer escalations: Nutanix believes in putting customers first. While we have a huge, dedicated team to assist customers with any issues, there might be situations where engineering help might be sought to bail out a rare, unfortunate outage. + Take pride in working with open-source communities to convert product improvements into community projects. **About the Team** You'll be reporting to Prerna Saxena (LinkedIn (https://learn.hirebrain.com/web/job-library/copyForAts/2665/linkedin.com/in/prerna-saxena-92198a6) ), our senior engineering manager who has been with Nutanix since 2015.

What the Team Says: The team is an amazing group to work with—supportive, collaborative, and all-around awesome. You'll find yourself fitting right in and enjoying the camaraderie and teamwork. How We Work: At Nutanix, we have a hybrid work environment, giving you the flexibility to work remotely as needed. We also have in-person meetings twice a week to connect with the team, brainstorm together, and ensure we're all on the same page. This balance allows for both autonomy and collaboration, creating a dynamic and efficient work environment. **Your Role** + Rock-solid OS/systems fundamentals drive design and implementation. + Low-level coding debugging experience with at least one hardware architecture, preferably x86. + The ability to write and maintain enterprise-quality code. + Deep reasoning and analytical skills provide top-down thinking to break down abstract concepts into actionable pieces. + Proven feature delivery experience: **What You Will Bring** + Bachelor's/Master’s degree in Computer Science or equivalent. + 8+ years of experience building enterprise-grade software, preferably some with leadership experience. + Knowledge of x86 virtualisation and the KVM stack. + Code contributions to the Linux kernel/virtualization stack are an added plus. **Work Arrangement** Hybrid: This role operates in a hybrid capacity, blending the benefits of remote work with the advantages of in-person collaboration. For most roles, that will mean coming into an office a minimum of 2 - 3 days per week, however certain roles and/or teams may require more frequent in-office presence. Additional team-specific guidance and norms will be provided by your manager.
