Senior Customer Engineer

The Team + The Role

Pendo’s Customer Engineering team is the technical backbone of the pre- and post-sales customer motion. The team brings together work that has historically sat across Customer Success, Technical Account Management, and Solutions Engineering into one full-lifecycle technical owner. Customer Engineering helps customers connect technical execution to business outcomes and realize the value of their investment in Pendo.

As a Senior Customer Engineer, you own strategic and complex Enterprise accounts across acquisition, implementation, adoption, expansion, and escalation. You lead technical strategy for complex deployments, resolve ambiguous customer challenges, and partner closely with account teams to drive retention, expansion, and customer value. Your impact extends beyond your own accounts through playbooks, coaching, repeatable fixes, and workflow improvements that raise the capability of the broader Customer Engineering team.

This is a remote role supporting a central region.

What this looks like day-to-day

• New customer acquisition and selling: Partner with Account Directors on pre-sales motions for new customer acquisition, product expansion, and expansion across lines of business. You identify customer pain, craft and deliver tailored demos, and lead technical evaluations through requirements gathering, success criteria, installation guidance, and hands-on workshops.
• Complex implementations and value realization: Lead onboarding for strategic customers, including planning, implementation, integrations, and training. You build customer-specific implementation playbooks, guide complex deployments with executive visibility, and ensure customers realize value during onboarding and over time.
• Adoption, expansion, and growth: Identify opportunities to expand adoption across underutilized features, untapped products, and new lines of business. When adoption stalls, you diagnose root causes, design a path forward, and connect technical work to measurable business outcomes.

Position Summary

Join MyFundedFutures as the next QA Engineer responsible for ensuring that every release that reaches production meets a high bar for quality, stability, and correctness. This is a hands-on role with genuine ownership. You are the gate between code-complete and thousands of users.

You will work closely with product and engineering to define acceptance criteria, have thorough manual test and debugging skills, own the staging environment, build and maintain automation coverage and drive a culture where quality is everyone's responsibility and QA is the last line of defence, not an afterthought.

Key Responsibilities

• Own the QA gate for every release - nothing reaches production without the QA sign-off.
• Radiate knowledge of the trading products and asset classes the platform supports — including equities, futures, and leveraged instruments — so that test coverage reflects real-world user behavior, risk scenarios, and edge cases that matter in live trading environments.
• Stay current with changes to supported asset classes, new product offerings, and evolving platform capabilities; proactively update test plans and regression coverage as the product horizon expands.
• Execute end-to-end regression across all release tickets, verifying against defined acceptance criteria.
• Conduct production smoke tests of every production deploy, validating critical paths are intact.
• Maintain a stable, predictable Staging environment that PM and product can rely on for UAT.
• Build, maintain, and extend the automated regression suite covering critical user journeys: account creation, trading flows, payouts, and authentication.
• Own E2E test coverage; partner with developers on integration and API test coverage.
• Integrate regression suites into CI pipelines so every RC build is automatically validated before manual testing begins.
• Drive automation coverage toward a state where manual regression is focused on new features, not re-testing known-good functionality.
• File all bugs in Jira with clear reproduction steps, environment details as defined.
• Triage and prioritise incoming bugs; communicate release-blocking issues to the product engineering team.
• RanWork with developers during code review to ensure testability, meaningful test coverage, and that new features include adequate unit and integration tests before reaching QA.
• Support PM UAT on Staging - answer environment questions, provide test data, and reproduce issues on demand.
• Maintain test plans, test case documentation, and regression checklists as the authoritative QA reference.
• Document recurring issues, environment quirks, and common failure patterns so knowledge is not locked in one person.

Qualifications

Required

• Working knowledge of trading markets and financial instruments, including equities, futures, and leveraged asset classes. You understand how these products behave, what failure modes look like from a trader's perspective, and why accuracy and timing are non-negotiable in a live trading context.
• Proven experience as a QA Engineer on web and/or mobile software products with a structured, process-driven approach to release quality.
• Hands-on experience writing and maintaining automated E2E test suites using frameworks such as Playwright, Cypress, or similar.
• Solid understanding of the full QA lifecycle: test planning, regression execution, bug management, environment ownership, and release sign-off.
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and the ability to integrate test suites into automated build and release workflows.
• Experience with Jira or similar for bug tracking and release management
• Strong written communication skills - clear, precise bug reports and sign-off documentation are non-negotiable.
• Ability to work autonomously and alongside a team
• Reliable and thorough - you follow through, you don't rubber-stamp, and you treat the QA gate as a genuine responsibility.

Preferred

• Experience with React Native and/or Next.js web applications - familiarity with both mobile and web testing contexts.
• Background in fintech, trading platforms, or other regulated/high-stakes software environments where production quality is not negotiable.
• Experience with API testing tools (Postman or similar) and a solid understanding of REST and WebSocket APIs.
• Exposure to mobile testing via TestFlight and device-based regression for React Native applications.
• Familiarity with NX monorepos and multi-environment deployment pipelines (dev, staging, production).
• Experience maintaining QA documentation in Confluence or similar knowledge bases.
• Comfort operating across multiple products or teams simultaneously, helping manage parallel release cycles with independent cadences.
