About the role

We are seeking pioneering and collaborative engineers to build our next generation of intelligent products. Our quality engineers are conscientious hackers who thrive on collaboration and are adept at driving large-scale projects in the fast-changing domain of artificial intelligence.

Responsibilities

  • Built and maintained test infrastructure, release orchestration tooling, and performance testing systems as production-grade software
  • Designed and built test automation frameworks, including migration from Cypress to Playwright
  • Defined the right automation framework and strategy at each layer of the testing pyramid (unit, integration, API, end-to-end)
  • Maintained release orchestration tooling, managing build promotion, deployment gating, and rollback across environments
  • Built observability into test frameworks and scripts, tracking flakiness, execution time, and failure patterns
  • Solved challenging engineering problems, from flaky test infrastructure to AI-assisted testing tooling

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience as a software engineer building test infrastructure, developer tooling, or release engineering systems
  • Strong programming ability in JavaScript/TypeScript, designing and building backend services and tooling for test infrastructure from scratch
  • Experience building or scaling CI/CD systems, release orchestration pipelines, or test infrastructure (environment management, test parallelization, execution frameworks)
  • Understanding of the testing pyramid and experience choosing the right automation approach and tooling for each layer
  • Experience building observability or monitoring into test frameworks, tracking flakiness, execution trends, and failure signals to drive automation reliability
  • Hands-on experience using AI tools in the quality workflow, from test generation to flaky-test triage
  • Comfortable mentoring junior engineers and raising the quality bar on the teams you work with
  • Thrived in fast-moving engineering environments and enjoy solving hard infrastructure and tooling problems independently
