As a Staff Software Engineer on the Test Systems & Tooling team, you will lead technical initiatives that make sophisticated system-level testing practical across Engineering—spanning production-representative environments, workload replay/generation, and repeatable failure-mode testing. You’ll build platforms and tooling that enable teams to reproduce and prevent the kinds of issues that only emerge from complex interactions between workload, scale, configuration, and multi-tenant behavior.

Responsibilities

  • Build production-like test environments
  • Design and evolve tooling that makes it easy for engineers to spin up test cells that resemble production topology, configuration, and behavior, in partnership with Cloud/Infrastructure.
  • Enable production-representative workloads
  • Build capabilities for workload generation, multi-tenant testing, stress/load testing, and (where appropriate) traffic replay or replay-like systems to reproduce production behaviors in controlled environments.
  • Make failure-mode testing repeatable
  • Create tooling for injecting and validating failure conditions (latency, dependency faults, resource exhaustion, degraded-state recovery, and region-level failure scenarios) so we test them deliberately—not just learn from production.
  • Drive system-level test coverage
  • Identify high-impact system-level scenarios that are currently hard to test, and implement (or partner with the right teams to implement) repeatable coverage that’s incorporated into continuous and/or release validation.
  • Build shared frameworks and paved paths: Provide opinionated libraries, harnesses, and patterns that make it easier for product teams to write high-quality system and integration tests consistently.
  • Raise the technical bar through leadership: Mentor engineers and influence testing strategy across the org through design docs, code reviews, and cross-team collaboration.
