Overview

DriveSavers is seeking an experienced software engineer with expertise in C/C++ and familiarity with storage technologies to help enhance our data recovery toolset. This is a highly technical, hands-on position focused on analyzing proprietary storage and backup formats, and developing robust recovery tools to retrieve critical customer data from damaged or inaccessible systems.

Responsibilities

  • Analyze proprietary on-disk formats and metadata to identify recovery strategies across all layers of the storage stack
  • Design and implement libraries and applications in C/C++ (or other suitable languages) for parsing, reconstructing and extracting data from a variety of storage systems, file system and backup applications
  • Collaborate with engineering teams to validate tool output and improve recovery workflows
  • Contribute to build system and automation infrastructure by integrating tools with source control, CI pipelines, and dependency managers (e.g., Git, GitHub Actions, Conan)

Skills Required

  • Advanced proficiency in C/C++, with a focus on systems-level and performance-critical development
  • Experience with binary data formats, storage technologies and file system internals
  • Familiarity with backup solutions and technologies
  • Familiarity with compression and encryption algorithms and implementations
  • Bonus: Experience in static and dynamic binary analysis, malware analysis, or digital forensics (e.g., IDA Pro, Ghidra)
  • Bonus: Working knowledge of Python or Rust for scripting and prototyping

Additional Information

  • This is a remote position open to candidates worldwide
  • Availability for some collaboration during U.S. business hours is preferred
  • Confidentiality and data security are critical -- background screening may be required
