Job Type: Full-TimeSilver Peak is looking for software development engineers to drive the development of Silver Peak?s award winning virtual appliances targeted for deployment in both the private and public cloud. The Virtual Appliance Engineer will contribute to the design and implementation of Silver Peak?s virtual appliance offering. Silver Peak?s Virtual Appliances are Linux based guest appliances targeted to VMware, Xen and other hypervisor environments. Silver Peak?s virtual appliances operate at data rates far ahead of other competitive offerings and as such there is a strong development focus on optimizing Hypervisor performance.
In addition to responsibility for the standard development deliverables (design, documentation, and unit testing) the Virtual Appliance Engineer will also develop a broad understanding of virtual environments and how to optimize the use of shared virtual resources.
Silver Peak Systems is pioneering the Data Center Class Wide Area Network (WAN) Optimization market. Whereas previous WAN optimization vendors focused primarily on small branch office requirements, Silver Peak has redefined the high end of the market by addressing mission critical Data Center requirements. Silver Peak leads the industry with the highest capacity products as well as the unique ability to optimize all IP applications including high performance data replication. Its unique network-layer architecture enables Data Center replication between increasingly distant locations without sacrificing recovery performance objectives or data integrity. This has made Silver Peak the vendor of choice for leading Data Center infrastructure suppliers such as EMC, Hitachi Data Systems, Brocade, Dell, VMware, etc. This emerging segment of Data Center WAN Optimization is the fastest growing and most lucrative portion of the overall market.
By targeting mission-critical Data Center applications and leveraging its growing stable of established infrastructure partners, Silver Peak is able to gain access to customers that may have used previous generation solutions on a limited basis for branch office optimization. From this high ground in the Data Center, the company expands its footprint throughout an enterprise by demonstrating superior capabilities and the most cost effective solution for large networks. Major customers that have already standardized on Silver Peak for their global networks include: VMware, Google, Apple, Autodesk, Texas Instruments, ARM, Mayo Clinic, Verizon, Expedia, Visa, Linklaters, Facebook, Intuit, AT&T and many others. These advanced technology companies represent early indicators of mainstream market trends. In March 2010, Silver Peak was profiled in the Wall Street Journal as one of the top venture backed companies. Headquartered in Santa Clara, California, Silver Peak is funded by Artis Capital Management, Benchmark Capital, Duff Ackerman & Goodrich, Greylock Partners, Pinnacle Ventures, and JW Seligman.
