I'm with a block storage vendor that works with a lot of companies migrating off VMware, and the diversity of KVM-based cloud management platforms we're seeing is fascinating. We have customers moving to OpenNebula, CloudStack, Proxmox, OpenStack, HP VME, Oracle Virtualization, and even some homegrown solutions. The common thread is that they're all looking for a storage backend that is not tied to a specific hypervisor and can deliver predictable high performance. The beauty of the KVM ecosystem is the freedom to choose the best tool for the job, and that extends to the storage layer. A good software-defined block storage solution should have the features (data migration, disaster recovery) and capabilities to make the transition away from VMware as smooth as possible.

Compensation at StorPool is location-adjusted. We align our ranges with each local market rather than having a single global scale. So the numbers look different in Bulgaria vs. Switzerland (or elsewhere), but the goal is to be competitive for top engineers in each region, which means 6+ figures for senior engineers in the US, Switzerland, Denmark, Luxembourg, Germany, etc.

Thanks for flagging this! You’re right — the job page flow can be a bit confusing. You can apply directly by sending your resume to the email address listed in the last section of the job ad. We’re also adding a form shortly to make applying more straightforward.
