- Build and maintain internal tools to improve testing, quality feedback, and development workflows for product engineers
- Develop CI/CD enhancements and quality gates to integrate testing and quality metrics across all stages of delivery
- Drive adoption of modern quality practices such as shift-left testing, test pyramids, and built-in quality gates
- Create self-service tooling and libraries that reduce friction for product teams
- Define key metrics (test coverage, execution time, flakiness, cycle time, etc.) to continuously improve test and release health
- Collaborate with developers, SRE, and DevOps to embed testability, observability, and automation in system design
- Mentor and support engineers on best practices in quality automation, tooling, and developer experience
- Architecture: Service-oriented, including legacy code and monolithic services
- Languages: Python (AsyncIO, Django), Java (Spring Boot)
- CI/CD: GitLab CI, Jenkins
- Cloud: AWS, Kubernetes
- Messaging: Kafka, RabbitMQ, NATS, gRPC
- Testing: PyTest, Selenium, Playwright, SonarQube, Allure TestOps
Monitoring: Grafana/LGTM, Prometheus
About You:- 5+ years in software engineering, including at least 3 years focused on test automation for large-scale web applications
- Proficiency in Python (preferred) or Java, and a strong understanding of test frameworks like PyTest, Playwright, and Selenium
- Deep understanding of test automation architecture (unit, integration, system), mocking/stubbing strategies, and CI/CD pipelines
- Hands-on experience with GitLab CI, Jenkins, or similar tools
- Familiarity with AWS, Kubernetes, and cloud-native deployment practices
- Strong passion for improving engineering workflows, reducing friction, and enabling autonomy through tooling
- Experience collaborating across teams and driving initiatives that improve engineering productivity and product quality
- Strong communication skills (written and verbal, English), with the ability to translate technical concepts for diverse audiences
Nice to Have
- Exposure to using AI/ML in testing or quality analysis workflows
- Contributions to open-source DevEx/Test automation tooling
- Work at the heart of the engineering organization to remove friction and drive quality across all teams
- Build tools that impact 35+ product teams and help deliver value to customers faster
- Join a culture that values experimentation, autonomy, developer happiness, and engineering excellence
- Remote, async-friendly environment
