About the role

As a QA Engineer on our team, you'll test both backend API services and frontend web clients through a mix of automation and manual testing. You'll help us continue developing our CI/CD capabilities and pioneer strategies for reducing manual testing load. For us, "quality" means attention to detail, correctness, and strong error handling and recovery. You'll be embedded within a fully remote engineering team working on an e-commerce platform, working closely with developers to shape our testing strategy. We're open to candidates from mid-level through senior — the key trait we're looking for is someone who takes initiative to identify gaps and build solutions rather than waiting to be told what to test.

Responsibilities

• Design and build automated test suites for APIs and backend services (functional, regression, integration)
• Design and build browser automation tests for frontend client applications (e.g., using Playwright or Cypress)
• Work with engineers to define test strategy and acceptance criteria before features ship
• Propose and drive adoption of new testing practices and tooling, not just executing existing plans
• Improve test coverage and reduce manual QA load over time through CI/CD improvements
• Collaborate closely with developers to identify edge cases and failure modes early in the development cycle
• Generate test plans based on ticket acceptance criteria
• Verify successful production releases

Requirements

• Must have:
• Experience writing automated tests for both backend services and frontend web applications, including hands-on experience with a browser automation framework (Playwright, Cypress, or Selenium)
• Comfort reading and writing code for Node/JS/TS applications
• Strong debugging and root-cause investigation skills
• Experience with CI/CD tools (Jenkins, GitHub Actions)
• Willingness to use AI tooling
• Nice to have:
• Experience using AI tools for test generation, code review, or debugging workflows
• Security testing exposure
• Experience with test case management software (Testmo, TestRail, etc)

Benefits

• Health Care Plan (Medical, Dental & Vision)
• Retirement Plan (401k, IRA)
• Life Insurance (Basic, Voluntary & AD&D)
• Paid Time Off (Vacation, Sick & Public Holidays)
• Family Leave (Maternity, Paternity)
• Work From Home
