Scale and Performance engineer shall be responsible for validating feature scale and performance, run manual or automation S&P tests against all supported features developed across Ciena's Routing and Switching platform portfolio.
Work involves scale and performance validation along robustness test and automate test plans to verify product capabilities. Execution of feature scale test-plans, test bed design, test topologies, test Executions. Set up complex test beds based on Project requirements. Assist development engineers in product defect diagnosis/debugging and verification of fixes.
Day-to-day activities include planning, designing, automating, and validating tests around scale, performance, longevity and robustness tests across all supported features or feature combinations (Uni-D and Multi-D) to validate system behavior at limit and endurance. Develop test-plans, plan and design test-topologies and test methodologies with optimal resource usage.
Prepare/Automate robust, quality, S&P scripts with robustness and longevity also in perspective with optimal CPU and memory measurement reading mechanisms, and feature/systemic performance measurement mechanisms.
Use JIRA to file defects following proper template, and all logs/debug command output/traffic flow footprint, etc. relevant to the problem description.
Assist development engineers in product defect diagnosis/debugging/reproduction and verification of fixes.
Execution of test cases and reporting test results with artifacts using Test Rail
Work closely with engineers across teams/geographies to ensure quality for the features.
