About the Role

Allocate is looking to add a Quality Engineer II to the team! In this role, you’ll be expected to leverage AI tools like Claude Code as a core part of your development workflow. We expect you to lean into these tools to accelerate test creation, expand coverage, and drive quality at the pace our product demands.

Quality engineering here is automation-first and built around the test pyramid. We have a strong foundation of automated tests in our CI/CD pipeline, and we’re continuously expanding our coverage at every layer. We look for the right type of test at the right level of the stack, and we expect our Quality Engineers to bring that same thinking to everything they ship.

Manual testing is not the default here. You’re expected to automate by default and apply sound judgment about the rare cases where hands-on manual validation genuinely adds value (particularly for high-risk or complex scenarios that automation alone can’t fully cover).

Essential Responsibilities and Duties

• Use AI tools like Claude Code as your primary development environment for generating, maintaining, and refining automated tests

• Build and maintain automated coverage across E2E user flows and REST APIs, contributing to our E2E automation framework

• Collaborate with engineers and product to plan test cases and coverage for new features and user stories

• Troubleshoot failures, investigate logs, and help drive root cause analysis on bugs surfaced in testing or production

• Become a subject matter expert in your product domain, learning its business rules, user workflows, and edge cases well enough to anticipate where things are likely to break

• Champion quality across the team, pushing for testability, meaningful coverage, and quality standards early in development rather than at the end

• Stay current on AI capabilities in testing and quality (e.g. AI-driven exploratory testing, agentic test generation, self-healing tests) and share what works with the team

• Actively participate in team meetings and maintain a strong presence across remote communication channels
