What you’ll be doing:

Our Automation Engineers are part of a team of highly skilled Python programmers that are responsible for creating test coverage for all system functionalities and configurations. This is a challenging but crucial engineering task since the testing of a feature in storage can be more complex than its actual implementation. Together with the team, you will be responsible for the product’s reliability and stability, which is a core requirement of any enterprise storage product and is vital to its success.

As an Automation Engineer, you’ll:

• Create detailed, well-structured test plans and test cases;
• Implement automated distributed tests in Python;
• Gain an in-depth understanding of a complex, clustered system and be able to accurately analyze failures in those systems;
• Collaborate with the R&D team in order to identify and analyze problems, as well as verify and test solutions; and
• Become a storage expert who understands the terminology, protocols, configurations, architecture, and practicalities in the frontier of storage technology.

Requirements

• Extensive Python programming experience
• Prior experience as an Automation QA Engineer
• Storageֿֿ\Networking\Distributed Programming background
• An "under the hood" understanding of Python programming that can be used to implement a scalable distributed test environment
• Thorough experience as an Automation QA Engineer on a complex clustered system.
