Job Description
Who You'll Work With
Arista Networks is looking for world-class Software Test Engineers (aka System Test engineers) to help us in building the highest quality networking products for the AGNI team.
Arista Guardian for Network Identity (AGNI) is Arista's network identity and access management solution.

  • Write test plans to validate Arista features and products.
  • Design test network topologies to validate functionality, performance, stability and scalability of features and products.
  • Execute test plans to verify all aspects of the product. Identify defects and validate resolution.
  • Work as an agile member of a combined development and test team, running in short cycles to develop functional software in quick iterations.

Qualifications
