At Cisco Meraki, we know that technology can connect, empower, and drive us. Our mission is to simplify technology so our customers can focus on what's most meaningful to them: their students, patients, customers, and businesses. We’re making IT and networking easier, faster, and smarter with technology that simply works!

The MS Test Automation team is responsible for the quality of our Meraki network switch (MS) product line. It is constantly challenged with impactful problems focused around scaling, network troubleshooting, and stability and is the lynchpin of our business health.

In this role, you will use your experience with software, and testing to ensure the success of the team and product. You will grow and lead QA engineers, plan the team’s roadmap, and execute against that plan. Your team will be fully embedded within the software development group and work cross functionally with a number of other departments.

For example, your team will help MS developers write tests for new features, work with other test teams to plan changes to shared infrastructure, and collaborate with our Product Management team to tackle problems or even suggest new features.

• A bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related field
• 10+ years of experience hiring and leading teams of software engineers
• 6+ years of software test and/or QA experience
• 4+ years of software development experience
• Expertise in configuring and debugging networking equipment and protocols, especially switching
• Experience automating or scripting tests or other systems in languages such as Python or Ruby
• Leadership experience on projects involving substantial planning and coordination (either in a formal role or de facto)
• Expert knowledge of end-to-end testing of physical embedded devices

• Experience with hardware test tools such as Ixia.

We encourage you to drop us a line even if you don’t have all the points above. That’s a lot of different areas of responsibility! We will help you pick them up because we believe that great engineers come from diverse backgrounds.

At Cisco Meraki, we’re challenging the status quo with the power of diversity, inclusion, and collaboration. When we connect different perspectives, we can imagine new possibilities, inspire innovation, and release the full potential of our people. We’re building an employee experience that includes appreciation, belonging, growth, and purpose for everyone.
