About The Role
We're looking for a Senior QA Engineer with 7+ years of experience across the full stack. Your strength is backend QA - integration testing, system-level validation, and data quality across connected services, but you also own frontend and end-to-end testing of the user experience.
This role suits someone who wants to understand how the whole system fits together and why the data looks the way it does. If you are the one who goes looking for the problems that don't show up on the happy path, this is the role for you. You'll work closely with developers, product managers, and designers to test how things behave from the UI through the APIs down to the data: exercising APIs, following data across services, digging into edge cases, and staying involved in quality from planning through release.
Our product changes constantly - new features ship often, and existing ones evolve based on user feedback. You'll make sure those changes hold up and ship at a high bar. Experience working with offshore teams is a plus.
