To continue our growth, we are looking for a Systems & Network Engineer.
Within a dynamic and creative team, you will help strengthen our Quality Assurance group on our flagship solutions. The role involves independently deploying and building various IT system and network environments (switches, routers, firewalls, servers and applications) in order to test Stormshield firewalls in many configurations.
You will analyse how our products behave with the network traffic you generate and will provide analysis and recommendations to our development teams.

Design and execute load or stress tests to assess the stability and robustness of our solutions;
Enrich and keep our performance‑measurement infrastructures operational;
Deploy lab setups with varied equipment to test ongoing developments under real‑client conditions;
Develop automated tests to ensure reproducibility of our already performed performance measurements;
Diagnose failures of our security solutions for remediation (reproduction, system & network lab‑building, analysis…);
Propose improvements to enhance the products (functionality and quality);
Assist Stormshield teams (technical support, pre‑sales, developers…) in reproducing and analysing reported issues.
What is the technical environment?
Performance measurement tools: Spirent Test Center, Spirent Avalanche, Spirent Cyberflood, Cisco TRex Realistic Traffic Generator

You will join a Scrum Team of 5‑7 people (Scrum/Kanban). Collaboration is at the core of our way of working; teams are self‑managed and decide on their delivery commitments.
