Job

Company

Role

Who you are

8+ years of software engineering/SDET experience in C++, Java, Go, or Python
Deep experience in testing streaming architectures (Kafka, Event Hubs), queueing systems, and API protocols (gRPC, WebSockets, REST)
Hands-on proficiency with AWS, Azure, and Kubernetes (Helm, custom controllers, or K8s operators)
Proven track record building custom distributed load-generation tools (e.g., Locust, k6, custom Go/Java engines)

What the job involves

We are seeking a Staff Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) specializing in Data Connectors & High-Scale Ingestion
In this role, you will be the technical authority responsible for designing testing frameworks and benchmarking tools that validate multi-source data integration pipelines processing petabyte-scale throughput across AWS, Azure, and Kubernetes
Design and execute scalable performance, backpressure, and stress-testing harnesses for ingestion connectors (REST, gRPC, CDC, Kafka, RabbitMQ)
Build automation suites across AWS (S3, SQS, Kinesis, EKS) and Azure (Event Hubs, Blob, AKS) to test real-world connector data flows under degraded network conditions and extreme concurrency
Implement automated fault-injection pipelines (simulating schema drift, network partitions, rate limits, and authentication failures) to guarantee zero-data-loss execution
Utilize Kubernetes to dynamically orchestrate transient, high-concurrency test clusters and mock target endpoints at scale

Our take

The increasing reliance of businesses on data, plus the growing volume of data generated, is making organisations more vulnerable to cyberattacks. Veeam is a leading provider of backup, recovery, and data management solutions, focusing on simplifying the recovery process whilst also making it more capable and efficient.

The company's solutions focus on simplifying backups for virtual machines, achieving any recovery objective, maximising investments and reducing management overhead. It currently safeguards data for over 400,000 customers worldwide, including over 80% of the Fortune 500 and 70% of the Global 2,000.

Veeam also continuously introduces product updates, such as cloud-native solutions to protect data across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. It has recently appointed new leadership to help drive growth and product development across international markets, as it aims to sustain its leadership position and help clients fight back against increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks.
