• Architect local Kubernetes clusters (e.g., K3s, Kind, Minikube) and cloud emulator harnesses (AWS LocalStack, Azure Edge) to enable fully offline, system‑level validation
• Profile OS‑level resource usage (CPU, memory leaks, I/O bottlenecks, network latency) and run hardware‑in‑the‑loop (HIL) or local service‑level automated suites
• Maintain the physical/virtual San Jose lab environment, building automated orchestration tools to reset, patch, and reconfigure test rigs deterministically

What You'll Bring

• 8+ years in system‑level SDET, platform engineering, or embedded/infrastructure software testing
• Advanced programming skills in C++, Python, or Go with strong Linux internals, networking protocols (TCP/IP, sockets), and IPC knowledge
• Deep hands‑on experience with Kubernetes, container runtimes, and local cloud emulation (AWS/Azure)
• Experience in managing physical or virtual lab testbeds, edge hardware topologies, or local hardware‑software integration loops

What you'll get

• Unlimited paid time off, 12 paid holidays including 4 global VeeaMe Days for self‑care and 24 paid volunteer hours annually through Veeam Cares
• Paid parental leave: 8 weeks for all parents, 16 weeks for birthing parents
• Medical, dental, and vision coverage starting on your first day
• Mental health support, therapy sessions, and digital wellness tools via our Employee Assistance Program
• 401(k) retirement plan with company matching contributions
• Fertility, adoption, and surrogacy support through Maven, plus paid volunteer time
• AirVet: 24/7 virtual veterinary care at no cost
• Legal services, identity protection, and supplemental health insurance options
• Tax‑advantaged spending accounts for healthcare, dependent care, and commuting
