🚀 Senior SDET (Golang & Kubernetes) – Next-Gen AI Platform
đź“Ť UK - Fully Remote
đź’Ľ Permanent
Looking for a Senior SDET who actually enjoys breaking complex distributed systems and wants to scale test frameworks for platforms running AI, LLM, and GPU workloads
I’m working with a really impressive, fast-growing tech business that completely throws corporate ego out the window in favor of actual engineering quality and creativity. They need a heavy-hitting Senior SDET with strong Golang and Kubernetes experience to join their core product team. There’s no rigid blueprint here. If you’re the type of engineer who spots a bottleneck and constructively shakes things up, you’ll fit right in.
What you'll actually be doing
- Building from scratch: Designing and maintaining robust automated test frameworks and quality engineering solutions using Go.
- AI Infrastructure: Laying down automated testing strategies across API (gRPC/REST), integration, performance, and reliability testing for systems powering massive model training and inference.
- Cloud-Native stuff: Testing and deploying solutions on Kubernetes, spinning up Helm charts, and working directly with the Kubernetes API.
- Shaping the design: Sitting in on architectural discussions with backend, ML, and frontend teams to make sure scalability and testability are baked in before a single line of feature code gets written.

It searches the market for you

Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What you need to bring
- Strong, production-level experience building backend test frameworks in Golang.
- Deep knowledge of Kubernetes, containers, and microservices testing strategies.
- Solid experience testing secure APIs (gRPC and REST).
