It's a new day with a new opportunity at 8am!
About the role:
8am is hiring a Software Development Engineer in Test to embed within our SaaS Platform team, the group that owns customer identity, authentication, provisioning, roles and permissions, risk profiling, and the APIs every other 8am product consumes. You will own the test automation strategy for that team and partner with engineers from requirements through release.
We do not embed SDETs everywhere. We place them where the rate of change and blast radius warrant it. SaaS Platform is one of those places. QE owns test strategy, risk assessment, and quality gates; SDETs own the automation that makes those gates enforceable. Your focus is end-to-end flow coverage of the critical user journeys that exercise the platform in production, plus contract coverage of the APIs downstream products depend on. We do not chase atomic line coverage at the E2E layer. Your work directly supports our Defect Leakage Rate target of under 15%.
This role is hired through an Employer of Record (EOR) partner in the Czech Republic.
About us:
8am builds software that helps professionals run stronger businesses. Our platform powers payments, client experience, and operational workflows for legal, accounting, and other service-based businesses. U.S. based professionals count on our purpose-built solutions to simplify operations, ensure compliance, and fuel profitable growth, so they can focus on their clients and do more of the work that matters.
More than 250,000 professionals across the U.S. rely on our products every day. As we continue to grow, we’re investing in the next generation of our platform and are looking for experienced engineers who want to help shape its future.
What you'll do:
- Own the E2E flow automation strategy for SaaS Platform, prioritizing critical customer journeys (auth, provisioning, identity, role and permission flows) over exhaustive atomic coverage.
- Build and maintain automation in Python with Playwright for UI flows and PyTest for API and contract coverage, contributing back to our internal framework when you find gaps.
- Integrate tests into CircleCI and our tiered quality gates (PR smoke, nightly, pre-release regression) so gates are enforceable, fast, and trustworthy.
