The posting

Performance QE Engineer – distributed storage platform

DDN is hiring a Performance Automation Engineer to help build and extend our automated benchmarking infrastructure for the RED (Infinia) storage platform — covering S3, Block/CSI, and POSIX/HPC I/O paths, from test orchestration through results collection and dashboards.

The role requires knowledge & experience in storage performance testing, automation, and system‑level benchmarking, along with strong Python and Ansible skills to build scalable, repeatable test frameworks.

What You’ll Do

- Work upon performance testing for a large‑scale distributed storage platform supporting S3 object storage, POSIX file systems, and block‑level protocols.

- Write and maintain Ansible playbooks/roles for cluster setup, health checks, and install/configuration

- Contribute to Celery-based task orchestration for running I/O workloads in parallel

- Execute and troubleshoot storage benchmarks: FIO, IOR, mdtest, IO500, WARP

- Write Python scripts for parsing results, generating manifests, and normalizing metrics

- Help maintain the PostgreSQL results schema and Grafana dashboards

- Assist with test reporting integration

- Debug test failures and flaky pipeline run across protocols

- Contribute new benchmark profiles (YAML workload definitions) under review

- Work closely with developers to validate fixes and feature performance impact.

What You Bring

- Python (2+ yrs): comfortable with scripting, basic async/task-queue concepts (Celery a plus)

- Working knowledge of Ansible (writing/modifying playbooks and roles)

- Basic SQL skills (PostgreSQL)

- Linux fundamentals — filesystems, networking, processes

- Exposure to CI/CD tools (GitHub Actions or similar)

- Understanding of storage concepts (block/file/object) — willingness to learn benchmarking tools (FIO, IOR, mdtest)

Nice to Have

- Prior exposure to Redis/RabbitMQ or any message queue

- Grafana or other dashboarding tool experience

- Node.js basics

- Internship/project experience with performance testing or storage systems

- Familiarity with monitoring and metrics tools (Prometheus, Grafana).

Why it works

3×

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
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
