Recruitment Fraud Alert
We’ve learned that scammers are impersonating Commvault team members—including HR and leadership—via email or text. These bad actors may conduct fake interviews and ask for personal information, such as your social security number.
What to know:
- Commvault does not conduct interviews by email or text.
- We will never ask you to submit sensitive documents (including banking information, SSN, etc) before your first day.
- Commvault recruiters may contact prospective candidates through LinkedIn and other professional networking platforms regarding career opportunities. If you are unsure whether a recruiting communication is legitimate, review the profile to ensure they have a badge verifying them as a Commvault employee.

About the Team
The Clumio backend team designs, builds, and operates the cloud-native systems behind Clumio's data protection solutions — from the core SaaS platform to the systems that back up and recover large volumes of enterprise cloud data. In these environments backup is a compliance-, audit-, and security-driven requirement rather than a nice-to-have, so recovery performance, cost efficiency, and reliable operation at scale are our key differentiators.
Built on a fully cloud-native architecture, the platform scales dynamically with workload, delivers faster recovery and lower cost than native cloud backup, and stays correct under real-world failure conditions through reprocessing and retries. Beyond core backup and recovery, the team also builds customer onboarding, metering and billing, reporting, alerting, and ML-driven insights. We operate a mature, production-proven platform on AWS — including Amazon S3, DynamoDB, and the industry's first data protection solution for Apache Iceberg — and are actively expanding into multi-cloud data protection across GCP and Azure.
