SENIOR TEST AUTOMATION ENGINEER

The Role

AMD is looking for a software test engineer to join our Data Generation team in Poland. As a key contributor, you will build and own the testing infrastructure that keeps our ML training data generation systems running reliably at scale for AMD's AI research and FSR technology development.

The Person

You are a systems thinker with a deep ownership mentality and a passion for building quality from the ground up. You bring strong automation and testing expertise, strong grasp of distributed systems and backend infrastructure, and enough graphics knowledge to reason about rendering data and pipelines. You are comfortable operating independently — defining test strategy, building frameworks, and executing without a pre-existing playbook. You thrive when given scope, not instructions.

What You'll Get To Do

• Design and build automated testing infrastructure for our distributed job orchestration and compute platform, ensuring system reliability, API correctness, and stable operation 24/7.
• Develop and maintain CI/CD pipelines that validate all commits to the platform codebase.
• Define and implement test strategies for our data generation pipelines, covering functional correctness, performance regression, reliability under load, and output consistency.
• Build validation tooling to verify the correctness of rendering output data — images, buffers, and associated metadata — used for ML model training.
• Collaborate with data generation engineers and tech leads to understand system requirements and translate them into test coverage.
• Own test documentation, coverage standards, and quality reporting for the team.
• Contribute to the design and implementation of future testing architecture as the team scales.

Your Experience

• and pytest; strong automation testing skills with a track record of building reliable test frameworks.
• Experience testing backend services and distributed systems, including REST API validation.
• Hands‑on experience with CI/CD tooling (GitHub Actions or similar) and ETL pipelines — essential for this role.
• Strong grasp of computer graphics fundamentals and rendering concepts.
• Proficiency in Linux‑based operating systems and comfort working in Linux environments.
• Experience with JIRA for defect tracking and Git for version control.
• Strong analytical and debugging skills with attention to data quality and correctness.
• Excellent communication skills; comfortable driving quality standards across engineering teams.

Nice to Have

• Hands‑on experience with D3D12, Vulkan, or other graphics APIs.
• Experience with performance profiling and measurement tooling (CPU/GPU profilers, benchmarking frameworks, or similar)
• Familiarity with UI testing frameworks such as Playwright.
• Knowledge of Kubernetes and experience testing in cloud‑native environments.
• Experience with rendering engines, Blender, or other 3D content creation tools.
• Experience with machine learning data pipelines or ML training workflows.
• Familiarity with job orchestration platforms or distributed compute infrastructure.

Your Academic Background

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer/Software Engineering, Computer Science, or related technical discipline.
