Network Engineer - Test
role at
Arista Networks
.
Overview
Arista Networks is looking for world-class Network Engineers to help us test the highest quality networking products you can buy.
At Arista, you will work side by side with the developers, helping us to explore, find and fix our bugs before they can reach our customers.
You'll bring your intelligence, creativity, and drive to work every day to help us understand how our products are going to be used by our customers.
Your job is to find the hard bugs before our customers do.
You will not spend your time running manual regressions of mind-numbing, 1000-page test plans, because Arista's developers automate all the basic functional and integration tests.
Instead, you'll bring your intelligence, creativity, and drive to work every day to help us understand how our products are going to be used by our customers and to make sure that they're going to work every time.

Work with the developers on your team in creating their plans for automated tests to complement the exploratory testing that you perform.
Be the testing expert for your team.
Participate in functional specification and software design reviews held by your team and provide customer centric input.
