Key Responsibilities
We are seeking a Staff Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) specializing in Data Connectors & High-Scale Ingestion. In this role, you will be the technical authority responsible for designing testing frameworks and benchmarking tools that validate multi-source data integration pipelines processing petabyte-scale throughput across AWS, Azure, and Kubernetes.
Implement automated fault-injection pipelines (simulating schema drift, network partitions, rate limits, and authentication failures) to guarantee zero-data-loss execution
Utilize Kubernetes to dynamically orchestrate transient, high-concurrency test clusters and mock target endpoints at scale
Required Skills & Abilities
8+ years of software engineering/SDET experience in C++, Java, Go, or Python
Deep experience in testing streaming architectures (Kafka, Event Hubs), queueing systems, and API protocols (gRPC, WebSockets, REST)
Hands-on proficiency with AWS, Azure, and Kubernetes (Helm, custom controllers, or K8s operators)
Proven track record building custom distributed load-generation tools (e.g., Locust, k6, custom Go/Java engines)
