  • Strong proficiency in Python (for automation and orchestration).
  • Proven experience building or extending test automation frameworks for complex back-end systems.
  • Proven ability to troubleshoot automated test failures within complex large-scale distributed systems, and identify root causes.
  • Experience with containerization (Docker/Kubernetes) and modern CI/CD tools (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or Jenkins).
Desired Skills:
  • Experience with Kubernetes or Terraform or Ansible for managing test-bed environments.
  • Experience testing high-performance networking protocols or distributed file systems.
  • Experience testing software that interacts directly with drivers or firmware.
Education:

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
