Remote Senior Software Quality Engineer

We are seeking a Senior Software Quality Assurance (QA) Engineer with strong technical skills and business awareness to establish our test automation practice. You’ll take our Playwright-based testing PoC to production, building frameworks and tooling that enable our development teams to own quality long-term.

This is a hands-on IC role reporting to the Director of Engineering, working across our Application Software Engineering Team (ASET) which includes our Construct platform crew and REx module crew. You’ll spend 80% of your time building test automation infrastructure and frameworks, and 20% coordinating testing efforts, triaging results, and providing quality metrics to leadership.

• Front-End & Back-End Testing: Experience testing web UIs, REST APIs, microservices, data validation, and output verification.
• Complex Systems & R&D: Comfortable operating in a research-oriented or emerging technology setting, adapting QA processes to novel and sometimes ambiguous requirements.
• Bachelor’s Degree: In Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field. - Quantum Domain Exposure: Familiarity with quantum software tools, frameworks, and SDKs (e.g., Qiskit, Cirq), or a willingness to learn and adapt best practices for quantum systems.
• AI-Driven QA: Experience with AI/ML-driven test automation tools (e.g., Applitools, Testim.io, Sealights) to enhance test generation, predictive analytics for flaky tests, or adaptive test maintenance in complex systems.
• Startup or Early-Stage Experience: Background in fast-paced environments where you’ve taken ideas from PoC to production quickly, worked across multiple teams simultaneously, and balanced building infrastructure with delivering immediate value.
• HPC or Large-Scale Testing: Experience with HPC cluster testing, container orchestration (Docker/Kubernetes), or large-scale performance testing is a plus.
• Agile/Scrum Experience: Background in establishing QA practices within agile teams.
• DevOps Processes: Experience with CI/CD platforms (e.g., Gitlab, GitHub Actions) or cloud-based testing (AWS/Azure/GCP).
