About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Develop and maintain automated test suites integrated directly into Harness CI/CD pipelines to validate pull requests (PRs) and protect the main branch in our trunk-based development model.
Write system and integration tests to verify the successful installation, configuration, and health of AWC foundational services deployed via Helm charts to Taikun Kubernetes Service (TKS) clusters.
Automate the provisioning and teardown of ephemeral test environments for PR-level testing.
Execute automated upgrade and rollback tests on persistent long-running development clusters to ensure backward compatibility.
Validate the end-to-end continuous delivery flow, ensuring that components managed by FluxCD properly reconcile with the Git repository state and that Helm charts are correctly published to internal OCI registries.
Track and report on test cycle stability. Assist in automating Jira ticket status updates based on CI/CD pipeline progress to improve release visibility.

Requirements

What you’ll need

2–4 years of professional experience as a Software Engineer in Test (SDET), DevOps Engineer, or Quality Engineer focusing on deployment automation and infrastructure testing.
Solid, hands-on understanding of Kubernetes core concepts (Pods, Deployments, Services, ConfigMaps, Secrets, Namespaces) and command-line operations (kubectl).
Experience with modern continuous integration and delivery tools (e.g., Harness, Jenkins, GitLab CI).
Familiarity with GitOps principles and tools like FluxCD or ArgoCD is highly preferred.
Practical experience creating, modifying, and testing Kubernetes deployments using Helm charts, and working with Docker containers and OCI registries.
Strong coding proficiency in Python, Go (Golang), or Java for building automated test scripts and interacting with REST APIs.
Proficiency with Git, pull request workflows, and collaborative code reviews.
A collaborative mindset with an eagerness to learn about cloud-native infrastructure, distributed systems, and declarative configuration management.
Experience building operators or controllers using controller-runtime/kubebuilder is a plus.
Understanding of reconciliation loops and CRD design.
Familiarity with OIDC, SAML, mTLS, or credential-brokering patterns (SigV4, token exchange) is a plus.
Hands-on experience with AWS or GCP APIs (IAM, S3, networking).
Comfort with Bazel, Make, or similar build tooling in a monorepo or multi-repo setup is a plus.
Experience instrumenting services with structured logging (slog), metrics, or distributed tracing is a plus.
