Senior SDET who designs and maintains automated test infrastructure for Cerebras' AI inference platform: validating Kubernetes deployments across cloud and hardware environments, testing CI/CD, ingress, NGINX, and load balancing, and debugging distributed-system issues, primarily using Python or Go.
You will build and maintain automated test infrastructure for an inference platform. You will validate Kubernetes deployments in cloud and hardware environments, test CI/CD, ingress, service discovery, NGINX, and load balancing, and investigate distributed-system issues. You will develop testbeds, identify reliability risks, improve observability and debugging, and create validation strategies for platform releases.
