About the Role

Netskope AI Gateway helps global enterprises securely adopt and scale Generative AI. We are looking for a Staff Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) to own quality for significant areas of the AI Gateway product, its supporting services, and its APIs, across SaaS and on-prem/hybrid customer environments.

This is a hands-on individual-contributor role with real ownership. The areas assigned to you are yours: you set the testing direction and build what is needed to execute it, bringing hard calls to the QE lead as a peer rather than waiting for a specification or a checklist before you act.

Depth matters more than volume in this role. We are looking for someone who can get a long way into an ambiguous problem before needing help, go deep when a failure crosses service, infrastructure, and network boundaries, and work directly with developers and product managers to get the underlying problem fixed rather than routed around.

What You Will Be Doing

• Own Quality for Your Areas: For the features and services assigned to you, own the outcome: reliability, correctness, performance, security-related behaviors, and user experience expectations. Decide what needs testing and at which layer, set the bar for shipping that area, and be accountable for what gets through.
