Description

Own the QA strategy and execution for the Network SDK, ensuring reliability and performance across hardware and software layers.

This role is on-site.

Responsibilities

• Design and maintain test frameworks and automation suites to validate SDK APIs, HAL, SAI, and data plane interfaces.
• Lead qualification processes for SDK releases, including functional, regression, performance, and scalability testing.
• Triage and root-cause low-level defects by collaborating with SDK developers, ASIC teams, and NOS integration teams.
• Partner with DevOps to integrate automated SDK tests into CI/CD pipelines for continuous validation.
• Mentor QA engineers on test methodology, automation design, and debugging practices.

Required Skills

• 8+ years in software QA or validation for networking SDKs, NOS platforms, or embedded systems.
• Strong understanding of networking architectures, including L2/L3 forwarding, ACLs, QoS, and multicast.
• Solid experience with C/C++ API testing and Python automation in Linux-based environments.
• Familiarity with hardware abstraction layers (HAL) and Switch SDKs such as SAI, DPDK, or P4-based platforms.
• Deep debugging skills using packet captures, logs, SDK traces, and hardware counters.
• Proven ability to architect test frameworks and drive complex system validation efforts.
• Bachelor's Degree in a related field.

Preferred Skills

• Experience validating multi-ASIC or chassis-based switching systems.
• Knowledge of platform demons and integration with Network OS layers (SONiC, EOS, NX-OS).
