Datacenter Product Introductions team is looking to scale its test automation and CI/CD coverage to keep pace with NPIs. We are hiring contractors to expand test and automation for solutions involving BGP++, Open/R, Fabrics, Switches and Optics.
Responsibilities
Test and automate end-to-end network test cases (control-plane, data-plane, performance, stress/soak) using the inhouse test framework used by DNE team.
Build and run traffic-generation tests with Ixia/Keysight in lab environments.
Convert qualification test plans into automated, repeatable suites and onboard them as CI/CD conveyor nodes (DC/BB push pipelines) that gate releases.
Triage test failures for flakiness vs. legitimate regressions; file and track issues to the appropriate oncall.
Maintain and improve existing automation, test configs, and lab tooling; Collaborate with Netcastle (lab infra), Routing, and FBOSS XFN partners to unblock coverage.
Required Qualifications
3+ years in software/network test automation or QA engineering.
Hands-on networking fundamentals: BGP, routing/forwarding, L2/L3, data-plane vs. control-plane concepts.
CI/CD pipeline experience and comfort working in a Linux environment with source control.
Experience with traffic generators (Ixia, Keysight, or equivalent).
Nice-to-have Skills
Exposure to Open/R, BGP, ECMP/UCMP, or large-scale DC fabric topologies. Experience qualifying network hardware/optics or vendor NOS (e.g., Arista EOS). Familiarity with lab automation, device provisioning, or scale/performance testing.
Years of Experience: 5-7 years in software/network test automation or QA engineering. Degrees/Certifications Required: Bachelors of Science or network engineering
