Senior SDET
with deep expertise in Storage, Networking, Virtualization, and Cloud—plus hands-on experience in Python automation, AI/ML, and Localization Engineering.In this strategic role, you’ll lead efforts to embed robust globalization (G11n) and localization (L10n) into enterprise-scale infrastructure products. You'll architect solutions, drive engineering best practices, and ensure international readiness across cloud-native systems.An ideal fit for those who excel at the intersection of deep tech, intelligent automation, and global user experience.
How You’ll Spend Your Time Here
- Lead the technical design and automation of globalized and localized systems for Storage, Backup, Virtualization, and Cloud platforms.
- Partner with cross-functional teams including Product, QA, DevOps, and Localization teams to integrate internationalization (i18n) and localization early into the software development lifecycle.
- Drive implementation of Python-based test automation for localization validation, AI-driven content verification, and workflow optimization.
- Provide technical leadership for integrating AI/ML models into localization quality workflows, including content extraction, translation validation, and context-based language improvements.
- Guide teams in implementing virtualized test environments for simulating geo-localized behaviors across regions and languages.
- Drive strategy and execution for global release-readiness of infrastructure products, ensuring alignment with market-specific requirements.
- Collaborate with Localization QA teams (LQA, GLQA) to build automated pipelines for end-to-end localization testing in client/vendor environments.
- Mentor junior engineers and act as a technical escalation point for localization automation and cloud-based testing infrastructure.
- Continuously monitor performance of localization systems, optimize test coverage, and provide insight through data analytics and reporting.
- Evaluate and integrate emerging technologies and AI-based localization platforms (LLMs, machine translation, etc.) into engineering pipelines.
WE’D LOVE TO TALK TO YOU IF YOU HAVE MANY OF THE FOLLOWING
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related technical field.
- 8–15+ years of experience in systems-level engineering with a focus on Storage, Networking, Virtualization, or Cloud technologies.
- Strong programming expertise in Python, with a background in test automation and scripting for infrastructure systems.
- Hands-on experience with AI/ML frameworks (e.g., spaCy, OpenAI, Transformers) and their application in localization workflows.
- Solid understanding of G11n, L10n, i18n principles, and industry-standard localization workflows.
- Experience with CI/CD pipelines, cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, or GCP), and virtualization platforms (VMware, KVM, Hyper-V).
- Familiarity with tools such as Robot Framework, Selenium, Postman, REST Assured, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, or Ansible.
- Proven ability to lead cross-functional technical initiatives, drive architectural discussions, and influence product globalization strategies.
- Strong communication and collaboration skills, with ability to work across global teams and stakeholders.
- Knowledge of or interest in multilingual content, voice interfaces, and localized UX testing is a plus.
- Fluency in English; knowledge of another foreign language (Japanese, French, Chinese) is an added advantage.
- Collaborate cross-functionally, leadership & mentorship experience, drives go/no-go decisions based on quality of the release, anticipate risks and come up with mitigation plans.
