Role Overview:

Trellix is looking for quality engineers who are self-driven and passionate to work on on-prem/cloud products that cover SIEM, EDR, and XDR technologies. This job involves manual, automated testing (including automation development), non-functional (performance, stress, soak), security testing and much more. Work smartly by using cutting edge technologies and AI driven solutions.

About the role:

• Champion a quality-first mindset throughout the entire software development lifecycle. Develop and implement comprehensive test strategies and plans for a complex hybrid application, considering the unique challenges of both on-premise and cloud deployments.

• Collaborate with architects and development teams to understand system architecture, design, and new features to define optimal test approaches.

• Peruse the requirements documents thoroughly and thus design relevant test cases that cover new product functionality and the impacted areas.

• Design, develop, and maintain robust, scalable, and high-performance automated test frameworks and tools from scratch, utilizing industry-standard programming languages (e.g., Python, Java, Go).

• Manage and maintain test environments, including setting up and configuring both on-premise and cloud instances for testing.

• Execute new feature and regression cases manually, as needed for a product release.

• Familiarity with bug tracking platforms such as JIRA, Bugzilla, etc. is essential. Filing defects effectively, i.e., noting all the relevant details that reduce the back-and-forth, and aids quick turnaround with bug fixing, is an essential trait for this job

• Identify cases that are automatable, and within this scope, segregate cases with high ROI from low-impact areas to improve testing efficiency

• Analyze test results, identify defects, and work closely with development teams to ensure timely resolution. 

• Willing to explore and increase understanding on Cloud/ On-prem infrastructure

About you:

• 1-4 years of experience in an SDET role with a relevant degree in Computer Science or Information Technology is required

• Show ability to quickly learn a product or concept, viz., its feature set, capabilities, and functionality.

• Solid fundamentals in any programming language (preferably, Python or go) and OOPS concepts. Also, hands-on with any of the popular CI/CD tools such as Teamcity, Jenkins or similar is a must

• RESTful API testing using tools such as Postman or similar is a must

• Familiarity and exposure to AWS and its offerings, such as, S3, EC2, EBS, EKS, IAM, etc., is required.

• Exposure to Docker, Helm, GitOps is an added advantage.

• Extensive experience designing, developing, and maintaining automated test frameworks (e.g., Playwright, Selenium, Cypress, TestNG, JUnit, Pytest).

• Experience with API testing tools and frameworks (e.g., Postman, Rest Assured, OpenAPI/Swagger).

• Good foundational knowledge in working on Linux based systems. This includes setting up git repos, user management, network configurations, use of package managers, etc.

• Hands-on with functional and  non-functional testing, such as, performance and load, is desirable.

• Any level of proficiency with prometheus, grafana, service metrics, would be nice to have

• Understanding of cyber security concepts would be helpful.
