Responsibilities
- Design, implement, and maintain test plans for fullstack applications (UI, API, backend, and integrations).
- Develop and execute manual and automated tests to ensure quality at every layer of the stack.
- Lead end-to-end testing efforts, covering authentication, workflows, APIs, data consistency, and third-party integrations.
- Partner with Engineering, Product, and DevOps teams to improve software delivery and deployment pipelines.
- Build and mentor a high-performing QA team, including hiring, training, and setting testing standards.
- Define and track quality metrics that can be used to measure the overall effectiveness of the employed test strategy.
- Advocate for testability, quality practices, and continuous improvement across the organization.
- Own the strategy for regression testing, load/performance testing, and release validation.
- Champion best practices for SaaS application testing, including multi-tenant, role-based access, data integrity, and upgrade paths.
- 10+ years of QA engineering experience, including direct work with fullstack and SaaS platforms.
- Strong understanding of web technologies (HTTP/S, REST APIs, frontend frameworks, databases, microservices).

- Experience testing cloud-native applications (AWS, Azure, or GCP) is a plus.
- Strong communication skills, with the ability to advocate for quality across technical and non-technical teams. As a Senior QA Engineer, you will be expected to be able to both take direction from management and senior developers, as well as anticipate necessary efforts and be self-directed when appropriate.
