About the role
About this opportunity:
It will be practically impossible for human brains to understand how to run and optimize next generation of wireless networks, i.e., 5G networks with distributed edge compute, that will drive economic and social transformation for all aspects of society. Machine Learning (ML) and other Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies will be vital for us to handle this opportunity. We are expanding the Ericsson MLOps Engineering Unit with tech savvy developers with right attitude and skillset.
MLOps is an iterative process for building, deploying, operationalizing, and observing AI/ML systems. MLOps aim is to manage the end-to-end life cycle of AI/ML models through all the phases, experimentation, development, deployment, model performance monitoring and re-training and, when needed, re-design and re-architecture to keep models operating in optimal conditions in production environments. A MLOps platform provides services and components to assist and guide organizations through this iterative process. MLOps platform components are designed to overcome the challenges to develop and operate AI/ML systems at industrial scale on production environments.
Ericsson is now looking for Senior Software Engineer_Test to expand its MLOps Engineering Development team based in Chennai.
You will do:
- Ability to define test strategy and follow the guidelines
- Design test scenarios as the requirements and develop test automation scripts using test automation guidelines
- Ability to handle testing activities for a product release
- Implement and run non-functional tests: performance/load, reliability, resilience/chaos testing, and capacity validation for CPU/GPU workloads.
- Ability to understand the "microservice architecture" and work on cloud native platforms
- Collaborate with peer team members to develop solutions
- Ability to pay attention to minute details and work (individually and in team) well even under pressure to meet the deadlines
- Keep updated with latest industry developments
- Collaborate with product development teams and partners in Ericsson Businesses to industrialize a platform for machine learning models and solutions as part of Ericsson offerings including providing code, workflows and documents
- Manage communication, planning, collaboration and feedback loops with business stakeholders.
You will bring:
- A good understanding of the development life cycle of the software
- Proficiency in test automation framework. Having hands-on experience in "Robot Framework" is an added advantage.
- Proficiency in non-functional testing activities like Performance, Reliability, and its specific tools (Example: Jmeter, Locust, Litmus, Chaos Monkey).
- Proficiency in python programming language
- Proficiency in Docker and Kubernetes
- Working knowledge in CI/CD, Source control and collaborative coding tools like Jenkins, git, gerrit etc.
- Comfortable working with infrastructure-related concepts (CPU/GPU capacity, storage, networking) to design realistic test scenarios.
- Bachelors/Masters in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or related disciplines from any of the reputed institutes. First Class, preferably with Distinction.
- Applied experience: 2+ years of experience with infrastructure, platforms, networking, and software systems; and an overall industry experience of about 4+ years.
- Exposure with large scale systems, for example reliability/HA, deployment, operations, testing, and trouble-shooting.
- Experience with delivering software products, for example release management, documentation
