Senior Network Testing Engineer

Senior Network Testing Engineer

We are seeking a hands-on Senior Network Testing Engineer to design, develop, and execute comprehensive testing strategies for early-stage secure networking products. This is a deeply technical, engineering-driven role focused on validating performance, reliability, and compliance of mission-critical communication systems.

You will work closely with architects, developers, and product teams to ensure networking prototypes meet customer requirements, performance targets, and regulatory standards before release. You will play a key role in validating next-generation secure networking products deployed in high-impact, real-world environments.

What You'll Do

• Design and develop automated testing pipelines for networking prototypes
• Define test cases based on customer use cases and functional requirements
• Perform functional, integration, and unit testing across networking features
• Conduct throughput, latency, and packet loss stress testing for L2/L3 networking capabilities
• Evaluate system behaviour under variable networking conditions (latency, congestion, bandwidth limitations, instability)
• Set up and operate network emulators, simulators, traffic generators, and packet capture tools
• Support troubleshooting activities across modems and other networking products
• Analyse and resolve complex connectivity and internet working issues
• Produce clear, concise test reports with actionable recommendations for improvement
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure quality, cost, and timeline objectives are met
• Ensure compliance with regulatory requirements and industry standards

What Were Looking For

• Bachelors degree in Telecommunications, Computer Science, Electronics Engineering, or related field
• 5+ years of experience in networking, testing, and troubleshooting environments
• Strong understanding of TCP/IP, routing, switching, and Linux networking
• Hands-on experience with C/C++ and Python
• Experience developing structured testing plans and reporting frameworks
• Practical experience with traffic generators, network emulators, modems, routers, and network analyzers
• Experience testing networking topologies and operational behaviours
• Strong analytical and debugging skills
• Comfortable working in structured yet fast-paced product development environments
• Clear written and verbal communication skills

This is an opportunity to work on high-assurance secure communication systems where performance, resilience, and reliability are critical.

The hiring process can take approximately 3 months to reach offer stage due to multiple interview phases and required security clearances.
