Review functional specs, design test plans and validate the outlined functionality in reference to functional specs; o After reviewing the software/feature functional specs, engineer would be responsible to design a test plan to cover the feature from functional as well as scale point of view. o Work with project leads and subject-matter experts to review the test-plan for its approval. o Using agile process, plan for automation of the test plan using engineering software and tools. o Report any software issues or functional deviations found during test and review cycle. o Ensure test reports are updated and tracked on timely basis which will assist to reflect the progress and feature release.

• Automate the test cases to ensure feature would be regressed on future releases.

o Engineer would be responsible to automate the testcases as outlined in testplans, using advanced scripting techniques and software languages like Python. o Make use of internal infrastructure such that automated scripts can be ported on any test platform. o Review the scripts with stake holders and ensure it gets integrated into mainline regression. o As an owner of the test suite, engineer would be responsible for fixing the problems reported on the automated scripts.

• Engage in customer escalations and assist development team in replication.

o Participate in major customer escalations and work with other stake holders in understanding the problem. o Work to narrow down the problem which can be specific to platform, feature or design. o Replicate the issue which would assist development team for potential fix in the software, which would then be validated.

• Review customer found problems and fill in any test coverage gaps.

o Engineer would be responsible to review the issues found in the field deployment and perform root cause analysis for test gaps. o For any test gaps found during analysis, understand customer specific deployment and replicate the issue in lab. o Automate these coverage gaps using test automation framework for continual regression in future release.

• Develop expertise in networking and software technologies.

o Engineer would be engaged in technical forums to learn and understand the emerging technologies within networking industry. o Would be responsible to take necessary certifications to enhance the knowledge which can bring in innovative ideas in routine daily tasks.
