Introduction

IBM Software infuses core business operations with intelligence—from machine learning to generative AI—to help make organizations more responsive, productive, and resilient. IBM Software helps clients put AI into action now to create real value with trust, speed, and confidence across digital labor, IT automation, application modernization, security, and sustainability. Critical to this is the ability to make use of all data, because AI is only as good as the data that fuels it. In most organizations data is spread across multiple clouds, on premises, in private datacenters, and at the edge. IBM’s AI and data platform scales and accelerates the impact of AI with trusted data, and provides leading capabilities to train, tune and deploy AI across business. IBM’s hybrid cloud platform is one of the most comprehensive and consistent approach to development, security, and operations across hybrid environments—a flexible foundation for leveraging data, wherever it resides, to extend AI deep into a business.

Votre rôle et vos responsabilités

We are seeking a skilled test engineer to join our Db2 for z/OS team with a focus on the Query Accelerator component.  As part of the SVT (system verification test) team, you will be responsible for stress testing newly developed features as well as fixes for customer problems.  You will occasionally get involved in customers cases where a problem may need to be recreated.  Our SVT engineers have the big picture view of Db2 for z/OS and create/maintain applications, workloads, and automation in a native z/OS environment.
 
Your main duties will include working closely with development to understand new features so that you can either modify existing workloads or create new ones to test the function.  Db2 for z/OS uses the ‘design thinking’ process, and our SVT engineers are involved early in the design process to understand the test requirements.  You will also be responsible for monitoring and maintaining the test systems on which these workloads run.
 
We are looking for someone passionate about product quality and new technology. Candidates with strong programming, debugging, and problem troubleshooting skills are needed to excel in this position.
 
About the product itself...Db2 for z/OS is the IBM premier enterprise  relational database management system and is the undisputed leader for storing and harnessing mission critical data. It is the “gold standard” for system availability, scalability, security, and cost effectiveness. The Query Accelerator component (sometimes referred to as IDAA or IBM Db2 Analytics Accelerator) is a replicated and synchronized instance of a Db2 database that is highly optimized for rapid execution of complex queries.  This instance can run on a separate Linux or x/OS machine.

Join the innovative system verification team focused on delivering high quality software with heavy emphasis on stress testing for every outgoing delivery.
