Is Test Engineer different from SETI (Tools and Infrastructure)? What does SETI do?
- curiousDog 10y agoSearch for great tools and engineers on far away, exotic planets :-)
- junke 10y agoThe begs the question: can we SETI at home?
- rifung 10y agoI believe SETI is the new name for what was formerly Test Engineer. I think they changed the name because it was a better description of what they do. I suspect it also made it easier to hire for, although that might just be due to the aforementioned reason. This is based off what I was told when I interviewed there a year ago.
- CardenB 10y agoSETIs are what SETs used to be. TEs are different. So SETI == SET but SETI != TE and SET != TE
- Bahamut 10y agoFrom what I understand, SEs in Test are now called SETI, but I could be wrong. It sounds like SETI does all the things the test engineers do in Google (I interviewed with SETI a half-year ago).
- jochenw 10y agoYes, they are. That's why we started this little series of posts to highlight the difference. There already are some articles on SETI (aka SET).
