After that you meet with colleagues from other teams to evaluate the impact of a requested version update for a postgreSQL. You find out that the newer version has a risk of an incompatibility with older 3rd party applications. You come up with a counter proposal that is compatible and satisfies the requester’s needs. Just before lunch, you review a couple of updates submitted by development teams. You categorize these updates by customer impact and translate their changelog entries into documentation which describes the changes from a customer perspective. You go for lunch with a team member to one of the restaurants nearby the office. As the place is popular amongst SUSE employees you run into colleagues from another team and have a conversation about the latest technologies developed in their area. After lunch you have a meeting with the QA team leads to check the current progress of testing, you point out some updates which need to be tested with a higher priority because they are required to fix severe bugs. In the afternoon, you realize that a problem which is usually found during testing by QA engineers could be checked at an earlier stage. That’s why you focus on improving the internal tools and automated checks. Your Python code is reviewed by a colleague immediately and you can deploy it to production before you leave the office.\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slMVL4cHzQI \n\n#Salary and compensation\n No salary data published by company so we estimated salary based on similar jobs related to Engineer, C, Python, Sales, Apache and Linux jobs that are similar:\n\n $80,000 — $120,000/year\n
