We successfully hired from HN in the previous round and are looking for another OpenZFS Developer (3+ years of experience) to join our team!
Klara Inc. provides development & solutions focused on open source software and the community-driven development of OpenZFS and FreeBSD. We develop new features, investigate/fix bugs, and support the community of these important open source infrastructure projects. Some of our recent work includes major ZFS features such as Fast Deduplication (OpenZFS 2.3: https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/discussions/15896) and AnyRAID: https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/pull/17567.
We’re looking for an OpenZFS Developer with:
- Strong C programming skills and solid understanding of data structures
- Experience with file systems, VFS, and OS internals (threading, locking, IPC, memory management)
Klara provides open source development services with a focus on ZFS, FreeBSD, and Arm. Our mission is to advance technology through community-driven development while maintaining the ethics and creativity of open source. We help customers standardize and accelerate platforms built on ZFS by combining internal expertise with active participation in the community.
We are excited to share that we are looking to expand our OpenZFS team with an additional full-time Developer.
Our ZFS developer team works directly on OpenZFS for customers and with upstream to add features, investigating performance issues, and resolve complex bugs. Recently our team has upstreamed Fast Dedup, critical fixes for ZFS native encryption, improvements to gang block allocation, and has even more out for review (the new AnyRAID feature).
The ideal candidate will have experience working with ZFS or other Open Source projects in the kernel.
Without a checksum, hardware RAID has no way to KNOW it needs to use the parity to correct the block.
