About Us
Softdrive is a VC-backed startup putting the PC into the cloud. Our mission is to enable incredible computer interaction, prioritizing end user-experience over all else. We’re solving the pains of legacy VDI without the complexity or cost that has defined the industry for decades.
Our solution is 5x faster, 50% less expensive, and deploys 80% faster than legacy industry players. We deliver the lowest total cost of ownership in the market, handle GPU- and CPU-intensive workloads at scale, and eliminate the burden of physical hardware. We build and stream VMs to any device, across cloud, on-premises, and hybrid environments, so teams can stay productive from anywhere without being constrained by their hardware. We’re proud to build in partnership with Oracle, NVIDIA, and Autodesk.
Joining Softdrive means working on hard infrastructure problems that actually matter, at a company early enough that your work shapes the product, the team, and the culture. We move fast, operate with high ownership, and are building something the industry's biggest players haven't been able to crack.

Work with file shares, storage locations, and NTFS permissions used for FSLogix profiles. Support Microsoft 365 applications in virtual desktop environments, including Teams, OneDrive, and Office activation issues. Assist with profile resets, container repairs, and profile recreation when needed. Coordinate with infrastructure, desktop support, and application teams to resolve user-impacting issues. Document troubleshooting steps, findings, and resolutions. Recommend improvements to reduce recurring FSLogix and profile-related issues.
