Experience designing and executing systematic test campaigns for complex, multi-component software platforms — including writing unit tests, integration tests, and end-to-end system tests against documented requirements in environments where the test infrastructure must be built alongside the system under test.
Demonstrated systems engineering test mindset — the ability to look at a platform composed of multiple integrated products (Kubernetes, GPU orchestration, AI/ML training and inference pipelines, network automation, identity management, storage) and reason about where integration boundaries will fail, where configuration drift will introduce defects, where AI workload behavior will expose platform gaps, and where requirements gaps will surface only under realistic operating conditions.
Hands-on experience with test automation frameworks and CI/CD-integrated testing pipelines
Familiarity with Kubernetes platforms, containerized workloads, and infrastructure-level software components sufficient to write technically meaningful tests — not just UI-level validation, but tests that verify scheduling behavior, resource allocation, tenant isolation enforcement, storage mount integrity, and platform service availability under load.
