  • Validating advanced networking features such as EVPN, BGP Route Reflection, and essential IP routing and switching technologies.
  • Creating and maintaining scalable automated testing frameworks utilizing Python and Pytest effectively.
  • Integrating automated test suites into CI/CD pipelines ensures continuous validation while maintaining software quality effectively.
  • Conducting performance, stress, and scalability testing with tools like Spirent TestCenter or comparable traffic generation solutions.
  • Resolving intricate networking problems, analyzing routing convergence, and pinpointing underlying causes of system-wide malfunctions.
  • Collaborating with cross-functional engineering teams while mentoring junior engineers to promote testing best practices and continuous improvement.

Do what you love

To be successful in this role you will:

  • Demonstrate expertise in Network Validation, QA Automation, or Systems Testing, supported by practical knowledge in computer science, engineering, or related fields.
  • Demonstrate expertise in L2/L3 networking concepts, including TCP/IP and IPv4/IPv6, with practical experience configuring, debugging, and testing routing stacks like FRR.
  • Demonstrate expertise in BGP protocols, attributes, state machines, scaling techniques, and advanced Python proficiency for automation using Pytest and libraries.
  • Leverage expertise in high-scale traffic generation tools like Spirent, Keysight/Ixia, Cisco TRex, or Xena Networks for performance validation.
  • Utilize Docker to containerize routing daemons, manage multi-container network topologies, and create virtualized network test environments with advanced tools.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
