engineering

We are seeking a Senior QA Engineer to ensure the quality, reliability, and performance of our Edge Kubernetes Platform, supporting both connected and air-gapped environments. This is a hands-on role where you will design and implement automated testing frameworks, validate complex distributed edge systems, and partner with engineering teams to deliver secure, scalable, and resilient platforms.

As a Senior QA Engineer, you will own test strategy, automation frameworks, and quality processes for platform components, with a focus on Kubernetes, Rancher Gov stack, and edge deployments.

Key Responsibilities

End-to-End Test Strategy: Define and execute test plans covering functional, integration, performance, upgrade, and security testing for Kubernetes-based edge platforms.

Automation Leadership: Build and extend automated test frameworks for UI, API, and platform-level validation (Selenium, Cypress, Playwright, PyTest, etc.).

CI/CD Integration: Integrate automated test suites into CI/CD pipelines, ensuring rapid, reliable quality feedback.

Platform & Edge Validation: Test Kubernetes clusters (upstream, RKE2) in air-gapped and edge environments, validating multi-cluster operations and lifecycle management.

Upgrade & Resilience Testing: Design and execute tests for cluster upgrades, workload orchestration, and fault-tolerance scenarios.

Performance & Scalability Testing: Conduct benchmarking, load, and stress tests to validate system reliability in resource-constrained edge environments.

Security & Networking Validation: Partner with security and platform engineers to verify network segmentation, access controls, and zero-trust enforcement.

Defect Management: Identify, document, and drive defect resolution across cross-functional teams.

Process Improvement: Mentor QA engineers, contribute to quality best practices, and continuously evolve test strategies for distributed edge systems.
