Responsibilities

• Contribute to and execute test strategies for switch software and cloud deployments, covering functionality, compliance, negative, solution, integration, scale, interoperability, and performance scenarios.
• Design, develop, and maintain automated test cases and suites for APIs, microservices, and containerized applications; integrate tests into CI/CD pipelines for reliable, repeatable validation.
• Build and maintain test environments and test data for multi‑cloud or hybrid setups; use containers and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes) to reproduce and validate issues.
• Develop and validate test plans, test cases, and QA artifacts against product architecture and defined quality objectives; raise gaps and work with developers to resolve them.
• Perform root‑cause defect analysis in lab and staging environments using logs, metrics, and traces; create reproducible test cases, defects with elaborate details, along with regression checks.
• Execute and report on targeted performance, scalability, or interoperability tests as required for assigned components.
• Follow and help refine guidelines for testing programmable APIs and networked interfaces (REST, gRPC, GraphQL, YANG).
• Adopt and propose improvements to QA tooling and automation practices to reduce flakiness and improve efficiency.
• Participate in design and architecture reviews, peer test plan reviews to represent testability gaps and help define acceptance criteria.
• Collaborate closely with cross‑functional teams (development, SRE/DevOps, product) to clarify requirements and support release readiness.
