    Requirements

    • Strong experience in at least one modern testing framework (Playwright, Cypress, Jest, JUnit, etc.)
    • Solid software engineering background (TypeScript, JavaScript, Java, Python or similar)
    • Familiarity with Ruby
    • Strong experience with Ruby to build or interact with backend services
    • Experience building internal tooling, utilities, or engineering platforms
    • Deep understanding of CI/CD (Buildkite, GitHub Actions, GitLab, CircleCI)
    • Knowledge of cloud environments (AWS, GCP, Azure) and containerisation (Docker, Kubernetes)
    • Strong understanding of architectural patterns
    • Experience with quality telemetry, observability, or monitoring
    • Experience with Performance, Load testing and tooling
    • Proficient in English at CEFR Level C2 / ILR Level 5
    • Strong alignment with company values

    What You'll Do

    • Develop and maintain the Quality Platform: frameworks, libraries, pipelines, and integrations that enable high-quality delivery
    • Build reusable, language-agnostic automation libraries and internal SDKs
    • Own CI/CD quality gates, test orchestration, and smart execution logic (e.g., test selection, caching, parallelisation)
    • Implement and maintain recording/playback tools, contract testing, visual regression engines, and observability hooks
    • Handle AI & Innovation for Quality Engineering workflows
    • Improve feedback loops in local dev, PRs, staging, and production
    • Create self-service tooling for engineers to generate tests, diagnose failures, and validate changes quickly
    • Embed quality signals into engineering workflows (e.g., risk scoring, flakiness insights, coverage intelligence)
    • Build systems that convert quality noise into actionable insights
    • Own metrics dashboards: flakiness, failure cause classification, performance trends, release confidence
    • Partner with Infrastructure team to implement resilience tests (chaos, reliability gates, SLIs/SLOs)
    • Define and codify standards that scale across teams (naming conventions, folder structure, selector strategies, logging)
    • Turn rules into automated guardrails rather than documentation
    • Work closely with Infrastructure team to ensure safe automation practices, secrets handling, and permissions
    • Create “golden paths” for developers including out-of-the-box test setup, generated mocks & fixtures, recommended patterns and linting rules, fully managed test environments

    Nice to Have

    • Experience with AI-assisted testing tools or test generation frameworks
    • Knowledge of VCR/web mocking proxies, contract testing, and API schema validation
    • Exposure to static analysis tools and code quality scanners
    • Experience with platform engineering in any form (DevEx, SRE, Internal Platforms)

    Benefits

    • Fully remote: work from anywhere in the world
    • Autonomy and trust to do your job
    • 35 days of PTO annually
    • Paid sabbatical after 5 years
    • Generous U.S. benchmarked compensation and startup equity
    • Awesome medical coverage with 100% coverage for you and your family, or medical reimbursement options where applicable

    • Learning & development stipend
    • Annual bonus potential
