DryvIQ brings intelligent content discovery, classification, sensitivity detection, and policy-driven governance to enterprise unstructured data across cloud and on-premises repositories. \nWe are seeking a Principal Software Engineer in Test (SDET) to lead the evolution of test automation architecture and engineering quality across Nasuni's DryvIQ Kubernetes-based distributed application environment. \nThis is a hands-on principal engineering role with C#/.NET as the primary automation development stack. You will own critical architectural decisions, modernize and scale established automation frameworks, and establish engineering practices that improve reliability, testability, and release confidence across teams. \nWe're looking for someone who can combine deep software engineering expertise with sound technical judgment and the ability to influence others. You do not need to have built an automation framework from scratch. What matters is demonstrated ownership of complex automation systems and measurable improvements to their architecture, scalability, and effectiveness. \nWhat You'll Do\nOwn the technical direction and architecture of established C#/.NET automation frameworks, improving scalability, reliability, maintainability, and execution efficiency. \nDesign and implement reusable test libraries, API clients, fixtures, test-data capabilities, diagnostics, and shared automation infrastructure. \nDefine risk-based testing strategies across APIs, microservices, asynchronous processing, integrations, system workflows, and end-to-end scenarios. \nEstablish automated validation for Kubernetes-based distributed applications, including deployments, upgrades, service dependencies, recovery, concurrency, and failure scenarios. \nLead test architecture reviews and influence product designs to improve observability, testability, and defect prevention. \nPartner with Engineering and DevOps to strengthen CI/CD quality gates, execution parallelism, environment reliability, and actionable release feedback. \nLead root-cause investigations of difficult cross-system failures using logs, metrics, traces, Kubernetes evidence, and application behavior. \nDrive improvements in flaky-test reduction, coverage of critical product risks, test execution performance, and diagnostic effectiveness. \nEstablish reusable engineering patterns and help other teams adopt them through code reviews, pairing, technical guidance, and collaboration. \nUse approved AI-assisted engineering tools to accelerate test design, code development, debugging, and analysis, independently validating correctness, security, and suitability. \nDevelop robust validation approaches for AI-enabled or non-deterministic product behavior, where applicable. \nQualifications\nMust-Have\n9+ years overall Software Engineering Experience with a a focus on QA Automation and Tools Engineering. \nDeep hands-on programming and automation development expertise in C# and .NET. \nProven experience owning significant architectural improvements to established automation frameworks. \nStrong understanding of software design, reusable components, asynchronous programming, debugging, and maintainable test-code architecture. \nHands-on experience validating Kubernetes-based, containerized, distributed applications, including microservices and asynchronous workflows. \nExperience designing automated API, integration, system, and end-to-end testing with sound judgment about appropriate testing layers. \nExperience improving CI/CD automation reliability, execution efficiency, test infrastructure, and engineering quality feedback. \nAdvanced root-cause analysis skills using logs, metrics, Kubernetes/container evidence, APIs, and system diagnostics. \nDemonstrated technical leadership across teams, including influencing engineering decisions, establishing standards, and mentoring engineers. \nPreferred\nPython/PyTest experience, especially reusable utilities, tooling, fixtures, or shared libraries. \nAWS or Azure, including EKS, AKS, or comparable Kubernetes environments. \nEnterprise connectors, SMB/NFS, S3, Azure Blob, or cloud/on-premises data integrations. \nExperience with performance, resilience, fault-injection, or failure-recovery testing. \nPlaywright, Selenium, Cypress, or comparable UI automation tools. \nPractical experience using AI-assisted engineering workflows with disciplined validation. \nIdeal\nExperience leading automation modernization for a complex enterprise SaaS product. \nDemonstrated cross-team adoption of automation frameworks or engineering standards. \nExperience with enterprise storage, content management, data governance, or security platforms. \nExperience validating AI-enabled classification, sensitive-data detection, or other non-deterministic functionality. \nAbout Nasuni\nNasuni is the unstructured data foundation for enterprise teams-and the AI that supports them.
