PYTHON DEVELOPER IN TEST

AMD are currently expanding the team responsible for System-level validation of our cutting-edge, networking, low-latency Ethernet Adapters, and SmartNIC technology in our Data Centre Group and are seeking senior engineers.

This is a position that focuses on System-level Testing.

As part of a larger team, you will play a pivotal role in helping to test our solutions to ensure they meet the end-customer requirements, utilizing a comprehensive framework of heavily automated test suites. These aren’t just simple scripts, but are powerful, multi-threaded test harnesses that stress our products to the limit, verifying that they do what they’re supposed to and are reliable in the face of adverse conditions.

Role/Responsibilities

Essential to product development in the AMD Datacentre group are our division’s set of automated test systems which provide continuous product validation and verification, and which continuously produce large datasets of information that need analysis and triage.

You will design, write, execute and support comprehensive test cases using modern test frameworks, based on defined and extrapolated use cases.

In close collaboration with a development team during the test cycle of our products, you will be using our home-grown tool chain to run literally tens of thousands of test cases, analyse the results, present results clearly and concisely, and dig deeper into the issues found to gain an understanding of the problem.

The role requires working across functional teams, with significant opportunities to learn about all aspects of the product design and lifecycle.

Requirements

We are seeking engineers with typically 2-4 years’ experience in a similar role, but will consider talented entry-level candidates who can demonstrate initiative and show experience with complex problem solving.

Candidates Will

• Must be especially adept with Python, but C/C++ experience is a bonus
• Solid understanding of Software Engineering principles, Data structure, algorithms, Operating Systems concepts and multi-threaded programming
• Excellent design and code development skills, familiarity with Linux and modern software tools and techniques for development
• Possess an inquisitive and curious nature, eager to understand how things work, and to get to the root-cause of issues
• Be able to demonstrate strong organizational abilities, attention to detail, teamwork and good interpersonal communication
• Ideally be familiar with networking protocols (TCP/IP, RDMA), but this is not essential
  
  
  

Academic Credentials

• A degree in a scientific or engineering subject, an equivalent qualification, or, alternatively, relevant professional experience
