The Role

Love testing distributed systems?

Pachyderm is hiring a Software Development Engineer in Test to help us architect and build out the framework for testing the core product - a distributed version-controlled filesystem and data processing engine. You'll be working on challenging distributed systems testing problems every day and helping us build a first-of-its-kind, containerized, data infrastructure platform.

Your primary focus will be to work on building the automation infrastructure, tools, and framework for testing the core product. In addition, you will help layout sustainable practices within engineering to continually raise the quality bar. At Pachyderm, OSS user and customer feedback is a major driver of our product roadmap and we believe that everyone within the company should experience that first-hand. In this role, you will be the customer voice within engineering. This is expected to be a development/automation focused role and some amount of manual testing. You will have a outsized impact in making your stakeholders (developers, customer team, and ultimately customers) successful and happy.

In this role, you will use Docker, Kubernetes, Go, Python, CI systems, various cloud providers, and more.

You will:

Design, develop, execute, and maintain an automated testing framework, tools, and infrastructure
Test the product for performance, resiliency, security, scalability, and reliability
Understand the end-to-end configuration, technical dependencies, code paths, and overall behavioral characteristics of the platform
Own the performance and longevity benchmarks
Analyze and understand existing test coverage and test cases, identifying opportunities for redesign, replacement, reusability, and improvement in efficiency and performance
Define and inspire changes to our product with our development engineering team based on feedback from tests and customer issues
Develop and contribute to internal and external knowledge bases
Care about developer happiness and be a champion for our customers
Go above and beyond to ensure customers are getting the most out of their investment in the Pachyderm platform

Qualifications:

Experience working in a continuous integration / continuous delivery development environment
Experience working with Kubernetes, Docker automation
Experience with automation in distributed systems
Strong programming skills and experience (Go, Java, Python, C++)
Must have strong communication skills when talking about technical concepts.
Professional experience in Databases and/or Distributed Systems
BS in CS (or equivalent technical degree) and 5+ years of relevant work experience (QA/Automation/Development)

Benefits:

Significant equity, 401k and full benefits (100% medical, dental and vision for employees, 50% for all dependents).
Flexible PTO - work/life balance is important and we want you to take time off to rejuvenate!
Remote friendly- we were remote before remote was cool and we intend to continue to invest in a remote first culture.
Tons of fun swag and surprise packages sent to your doorstep.
Tech and office stipends - what you buy is yours to keep.
Education and donation stipends - we want to support your career growth and the community.
Supportive parental leave (see also: work/life balance).
Encouraged fun - game days, fun activities, zoom hangouts and more (and - when responsible - visits to our home base for team on-sites)

We can't wait to meet you and hope you'll join our PACH!
