Sr. Solutions Architect - Storage Hardware & Networking

Everpure (NYSE: P) has evolved from storage pioneer to data platform, closing fiscal 2026 with $3.7 billion in revenue, its first billion-dollar quarter, and accelerating growth into FY27. Our strategic agenda spans the companies defining the next era of technology - hyperscalers, AI labs, the AI hardware supply chain, data platform providers, and the broader AI ecosystem.

This type of work—work that changes the world—is what the tech industry was founded on. So, if you're ready to seize the endless opportunities and leave your mark, come join us.

THE ROLE

As a Sr. Solution Architect you will own the product definition, technical guardrails, and lifecycle strategy for the hardware components and high-performance networking fabrics powering Everpure’s FlashArray and FlashBlade platforms. Partnering closely with Engineering, Supply Chain, and Field leadership, you will convert complex compute, chassis, and interconnect innovations into scalable, resilient platform capabilities. By defining reference architectures and validating real-world system performance, you will directly drive the commercial readiness, cost efficiency, and operational excellence of our flagship storage portfolio.

WHAT YOU'll DO

• Subsystem Lifecycle & Roadmap Ownership: Define and drive product requirements, qualification criteria, and multi-year lifecycle roadmaps for FlashArray and FlashBlade hardware subsystems (compute, chassis, interconnect) and networking fabrics (Ethernet, Fibre Channel, NVMe-oF) to maximize fleet reliability and performance.

• Architectural Guardrails & Standardization: Establish technical guardrails and reference architectures that guide Engineering, Manufacturing, and Field teams in making consistent, cost-effective hardware decisions across all product lines.

• Hands-On Technical Validation: Act as the technical authority for subsystem behavior by validating configurations, characterizing performance metrics, and resolving complex architectural trade-offs alongside Engineering in lab environments.

• Field Enablement & Commercial Impact: Partner directly with Field Systems Engineers and Sales leadership on strategic proofs-of-concept, technical escalations, and competitive positioning to win enterprise customers through technical differentiation.

• Technical Positioning & Collateral: Champion and deliver high-value architectural briefs, comparison guides, and technical FAQs that educate internal go-to-market teams and external enterprise customers on hardware performance and trade-offs.

WHAT YOU BRING

• Hardware & Networking Architecture Expertise: Deep technical command of storage or server hardware architecture (compute, chassis, interconnects) and enterprise networking fabrics (Ethernet, Fibre Channel, NVMe-oF).

• Hands-On Technical & Lab Rigor: Demonstrated capability to validate hardware configurations, analyze complex system performance telemetry, and troubleshoot deep architectural issues directly with engineering teams.

• Cross-Functional & Commercial Influence: Proven ability to collaborate across Engineering, Supply Chain, and Sales to balance performance, unit cost, and supply constraints into executable product plans.

• Technical Communication & Field Alignment: Exceptional skill in translating complex hardware and networking details into clear architectural guidance and enablement tools for both technical and go-to-market audiences.

• We are primarily an in-office environment and therefore, you will be expected to work from the Santa Clara, CA office in compliance with Everpure’s policies, unless you are on PTO, or work travel, or other approved leave.
