## About the Role

We are seeking a Staff Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) to lead System-Level and Infrastructure Testing locally in our San Jose lab.

## What You'll Do

- Build and maintain end-to-end local test environments in San Jose, mirroring edge-to-cloud topologies, hardware interfaces, and localized system deployments
- Architect local Kubernetes clusters (e.g., K3s, Kind, Minikube) and cloud emulator harnesses (AWS LocalStack, Azure Edge) to enable fully offline, system-level validation
- Profile OS-level resource usage (CPU, memory leaks, I/O bottlenecks, network latency) and run hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) or local service-level automated suites
- Maintain the physical/virtual San Jose lab environment, building automated orchestration tools to reset, patch, and reconfigure test rigs deterministically

## What You'll Bring

- 8+ years in system-level SDET, platform engineering, or embedded/infrastructure software testing
- Advanced programming skills in C++, Python, or Go with strong Linux internals, networking protocols (TCP/IP, sockets), and IPC knowledge
- Deep hands-on experience with Kubernetes, container runtimes, and local cloud emulation (AWS/Azure)
- Experience in managing physical or virtual lab testbeds, edge hardware topologies, or local hardware-software integration loops

## #LI-AA3

## What you'll get

- Unlimited paid time off, 12 paid holidays including 4 global VeeaMe Days for self-care and 24 paid volunteer hours annually through Veeam Cares
- Paid parental leave: 8 weeks for all parents, 16 weeks for birthing parents
- Medical, dental, and vision coverage starting on your first day
- Mental health support, therapy sessions, and digital wellness tools via our Employee Assistance Program
- 401(k) retirement plan with company matching contributions
- Fertility, adoption, and surrogacy support through Maven, plus paid volunteer time
- AirVet: 24/7 virtual veterinary care at no cost
- Legal services, identity protection, and supplemental health insurance options
- Tax-advantaged spending accounts for healthcare, dependent care, and commuting
