Senior Software Test Engineer

  • Full-time

Company Description

Computing is undergoing a monumental transition — to the cloud. This has led scores of vendors to offer tooling for the enablement and operation of cloud services. Sadly for the companies who have tried them, those first-gen tools have fallen short. This is because all are variations on a flawed theme: cluster managers with restrictive and naive capabilities, built on the wrong abstractions, and usually packaged in a complex UX.

MosaixSoft is designed to be different, a Composable Cloud System that is elegantly simple and AI-powered. First, it gives app developers self-service access to a limitless universe of easy-to-combine services that exploit an expanding universe of public and private clouds, e.g., AWS, Docker, OpenStack, Azure and VMware. Then it gives ops AI-powered optimization to ensure that the workloads powering those apps run securely, with maximum performance, and at the lowest cost.

In short, the Composable Cloud System allows savvy companies to compose a dominating cloud engine for their digital businesses, providing a fundamental competitive advantage in the Cloud Era.

As a startup founded and led by distributed systems visionaries, well funded by a top-tier venture firm, and working with practitioners disgusted by the PaaSs, orchestrators and assorted cloud management systems of yore, MosaixSoft's mission is to radically speed up the evolutionary pace of cloud operations for online businesses the world over.
