Leverage AI tools to accelerate the software validation cycle.
Contribute actively to the day-to-day activities of the system test team in an Agile environment.
Write test plans, review them with all stakeholders to cover the scenarios comprehensively, and execute them efficiently.
Build maintainable, high-quality and effective automated test scripts.
Review and triage test failures, and verify fixes.
Help address customer-reported issues by reproducing them locally and working with peer teams for faster resolution.
Stay informed of software and hardware trends and innovations, especially in firmware, CPUs, GPUs and accelerators.
Debug complex technical issues and collaborate with peer teams.
Develop technical relationships with peers and partners.
Mentor junior engineers and lead test plan reviews.
12+ years of experience in system testing, validation or test automation.
Strong experience in firmware test and automation roles.
Solid understanding of AI tools and how to leverage them in a large-scale distributed environment.
Proficiency in writing automation scripts in Python, and experience with test and performance-testing tools.
Solid understanding of automation frameworks, and fluency in Python.
Prior experience with cloud, security and data center technologies is an added advantage.
Strong troubleshooting skills.
Knowledge of operating systems, kernel-mode programming, device drivers, and related technologies and architectures.
Good interpersonal and communication skills.
Ability to write high-quality automation code with keen attention to detail.
Good understanding of the Linux operating system and hypervisors (VMware ESX, KVM).
Experience with software development processes and tools such as debuggers, source code control systems (GitHub) and profilers is a plus.
