What the job involves
- As a Senior Software Engineer on our Protocols team, you’ll work to take our Multi-Protocols Interface to the next level

Our take
For data-driven organizations, WEKA supplies a platform for storing, processing and managing data across the cloud and on-prem. As an AI-native platform, it supports the transformation of data silos into pipelines capable of fuelling next-gen workloads like AI and HPC.
With traditional infrastructure often hindering data-led processes rather than helping them, WEKA is somewhat of a breath of fresh air for its customers. The company's comprehensive approach, alongside support for both Windows and Linux, enables it to serve many types of organization including those that are just taking off.
WEKA does have a few notable competitors, such as VAST Data, but has stood out thus far by delivering the fastest file system on the market. It has also raised considerable funding, the latest of which will support expanded product offerings, and has made notable partnerships such as with NVIDIA.
