Python Automation Tech Lead

At Infinidat, a Lenovo company, we empower enterprises and service providers with cutting-edge storage platforms that redefine performance, reliability, and cyber resilience at scale. We are looking for a Tech Lead to join our System Validation & Verification team - someone who combines deep hands-on automation expertise with the leadership skills to drive technical direction, mentor engineers, and own end-to-end quality strategy for a complex, enterprise-grade distributed storage system. This role is centered on test design and development - the ideal candidate is someone whose craft is writing and owning tests for complex product features, and elevating a team to do the same at a high level. If you thrive at the intersection of architecture, code, and quality - and get energized by the challenge of making large-scale systems provably correct - this role is for you.

Requirements: • A test developer at heart - someone who has spent their career writing and designing tests for complex product features, not building CI pipelines or test frameworks • At least 10 years of experience developing automated tests for complex, integrated SW/HW products • Demonstrated experience leading or technically mentoring an automation or QA team • Strong Python development skills - you write production-quality automation code, not just scripts- MUST! • Deep understanding of complex, multi-service distributed systems and how failures propagate across component boundaries • Proven ability to design test strategies at the system level, not just feature level • Excellent diagnostic and troubleshooting skills, especially for non-deterministic or environment-sensitive failures • Strong communication skills - able to represent quality concerns clearly to engineering and product leadership • Engineering degree or equivalent experience Preferred Qualifications • Background in enterprise storage (SAN / NAS / Object Storage) - a significant advantage • Hands-on experience with file protocols (SMB, NFS) or object storage protocols (S3) • Linux internals and networking knowledge • Familiarity with storage architecture concepts (replication, snapshots, caching, RAID, data protection) About Infinidat Infinidat’s enterprise storage portfolio provides global Fortune 500 enterprises and service providers with best-in-class solutions for primary storage, next-generation data protection, disaster recovery, business continuity, and cyber resilience.
