IsraelWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Software Engineer at Dell Technologies, building high-performance infrastructure systems in C++ and Python. My work centers on large-scale storage systems, data pipelines, and engineering best practices.
I’ve been a core contributor to the UTS Filter (VMware ESXi VAIO), a virtualization layer intercepting and processing high-throughput disk IO for incremental data transfer. I designed and led implementation of multiple complex components, focusing on end-to-end delivery.
I owned VMware ESXi packaging strategy and rebuilt the build system (SCons) and CI/CD pipeline (Jenkins/Maven), including research and new deployment strategies. I also led RESTful communication between services, delivering both production code and POCs.
Previously, as a Software Developer for Storage & High-Availability Systems, I led the RDL (Raw-Data-Log) Demote tier from scratch to production readiness, including hiccupless failback logic to eliminate Data Unavailability (DU) during failover. I also resolved production bugs across the PowerStore stack—metadata corruption, race conditions, and hardware failures—strengthening reliability in data-intensive infrastructure.
Experience
Work history, roles, and key accomplishments
Served as a core contributor to UTS Filter (VMware ESXi VAIO), a virtualization layer intercepting and processing high-throughput disk I/O for incremental data transfer. Owned the end-to-end VMware ESXi packaging strategy, including reworking the build system (SCons) and CI/CD (Jenkins/Maven) pipeline, and led RESTful service communication research and implementation.
Led the RDL (Raw-Data-Log) Demote tier, a core data movement feature that reduced system write amortization by 3%, and implemented production-ready redesign including hiccupless failback logic to eliminate data unavailability during failover. Resolved production bugs across the PowerStore stack involving metadata corruption, race conditions, and hardware failures.
