This consists of collaboration between deployment and test automation engineers within the core team and external teams ranging from Development, Cloud Platform (Infrastructure), Project/Product management, SRE Operations, etc. * Collaborate in a joint effort with global and overseas counterparts to acquire and/or author product automation code. * Work closely with the Cloud Platform Engineering Team to analyze and effectively scale the underlying infrastructure through the use of AWS Cloud implementations (ASGs - autoscaling groups, HPAs - horizontal pod autoscaling, EC2 node types, etc). * As a part of testing, work with and analyze the logging and visualization capabilities through an ELK-like stack (FluentD, Opensearch, Kibana). * Operate in unison with Deployment Automation engineers to functionally test the validity of environments and their underlying services. Other testing involves performance, high availability, destructive testing to instrument and create a highly redundant, fault tolerant, distributed service architecture scaled to customers' SLAs. * Assist SRE Operations with the triaging, diagnosing, and troubleshooting of both internal and customer facing issues, as they arise. * Adhere to a "release train" cadence of testing (and deploying) platform-based releases and the respective services. This is managed with an emphasis in test automation while working in conjunction with other key individuals/teams in a regulated pipeline. * Drive forth key deliverables from a test automation aspect tied to a defined roadmap and pipeline of customers' schedules ## Related Videos - [How Unit Testing Saved My Career](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1642-how-unit-testing-saved-my-career) - [WeAreDevelopers LIVE - Modern DevOps for IoT Devices and More](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1805-wearedevelopers-live-modern-devops-for-iot-devices-and-more) - [Continuous testing - run automated tests for every change!](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/190-continuous-testing-run-automated-tests-for-every-change) - [Enabling automated 1-click customer deployments with built-in quality and security](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/83-enabling-automated-1-click-customer-deployments-with-built-in-quality-and-security) - [From boy scouting to redrawing the landscape](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1140-from-boy-scouting-to-redrawing-the-landscape) - [Hiring AI Native Talents](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100268-hiring-ai-native-talents) ## Related Articles - [The 8 Best Code Testing Tools](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/402-the-8-best-code-testing-tools) - [The Most Popular IT Jobs on the Market](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/376-the-most-popular-it-jobs-on-the-market) - [Top-Paying Tech Jobs (with Salaries)](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/372-top-paying-tech-jobs-with-salaries) - [The 12 Best Jobs for Software Engineers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/401-the-12-best-jobs-for-software-engineers) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers)
