Backed by Kleiner Perkins and Madrona.
About the role
You'll be one of the first hires on a team with a single mandate: find out how Qumulo breaks before our customers do. The platform manages exabytes of data for more than 1,100 customers across on-prem and every major cloud, and these are mission-critical workloads where a missed edge case becomes a customer's bad day.
What they're looking for
- 3+ years building and operating automated testing, validation, and/or certification for complex software systems
- Strong programming ability in C. Experience with Qumulo’s distributed file system, or parallel filesystems, would be a major plus
- A real breaker's instinct. You go looking for edge cases and ask "what happens if I do this?" before anyone asks you to
- A track record of building tests yourself, not just running test plans handed to you
- Hands-on experience across both on-premises infrastructure and cloud (AWS, GCP, or Azure), with a real grasp of where each one's limits are
- Working fluency in Linux (we run Ubuntu) and Python

This is a Systems Resilience Engineer role for the engineer who thinks like a breaker. You'll put on the customer's hat, work out how a feature will really get used, and design the tests that push it past its limits across hardware and cloud. You'll automate the testing our principal engineers run by hand today, and decide what gets tested, how often, and why. You'll help build this function from the ground up, including where we set the quality bar and which builds are good enough to ship.
Design and operationalize testing for new features: work out how customers will actually use them, how to scale-test them, and how to break them
Automate the manual, repetitive testing our principal engineers run by hand today,...
