Data Lake Curriculum Engineer

MinIO is the industry leader in high-performance object storage and the company behind the world’s fastest, most widely deployed object store, powering production infrastructure for more than half of the Fortune 500, including 9 of the 10 largest global automakers and all 10 of the largest U.S. banks. Our enterprise offering, AIStor, is engineered to handle the scale, speed, and pressure of modern AI and analytics workloads—from terabytes to exabytes—all in a single namespace.

The MinIO team is looking for an expert in data lakehouses who also has experience working with AI/ML platforms (Kubeflow, H2O, MLflow), to join us as a data-focused Curriculum Engineer. This is a technical role in which you will build hands-on technical training teaching how MinIO and various technologies interact - both on a product-specific level (MongoDB, SQL Server, Snowflake) but also generally (open table formats like Iceberg, Deltalake, Hudi). In addition to creating training content and hands-on labs, you will be responsible for recording videos of the content that will be edited and published on YouTube and on MinIO Academy, our online learning portal. The training is also delivered live to our enterprise customers and strategic partners.

You will be part of a team of technologists, video editors, and motion graphic designers building a world-class training portfolio for MinIO. This role works hand in hand with MinIO engineering, support, and technical marketing to tell the Kubernetes-native, multi-cloud story that is MinIO object storage as it relates to the datastore.

Previous experience as a data lakehouse engineer or data architect is required, as well as experience building ML pipelines. Previous curriculum development and/or training delivery is helpful but not required. You will need solid oral and written communication skills to make our training relevant and easy to consume.

What You Will Do

• Build real-world, use case driven labs that establish best practices for using MinIO
• Support the labs with clear, concise training content and develop real-world and use case-based examples, guided exercises, and practical lab materials
• Package the labs and content into short, outcome-oriented training modules
• Record videos of modules
• Learn new platforms and technologies quickly in order to become a subject matter expert
