About the Role
This is a QA Engineer role on our Quality Engineering team. You'll be embedded directly alongside a product development pod, owning quality outcomes for that surface area manual testing and automation are not separate functions here; you'll do both.
You'll report to the QA Engineering Manager and work closely with developers, product managers, and your pod as a real partner in shipping quality software, not a downstream checkpoint.
AI tooling has changed what QA can do day-to-day. We expect you to actively use agentic tools like Claude Code, Kiro, or Codex to help generate and maintain tests you don't need to have architected pipelines from scratch, but you should be comfortable using these tools as part of your daily workflow.
What You'll Own
Your Pod
- Serve as the QA owner for your dev pod test strategy, automation coverage, and quality sign-off for your team's features
- Grow your automation depth and agentic tooling fluency over time
- Take ownership incrementally as you build trust and track record
Quality Execution
- Write and maintain test cases across manual and automated coverage for your pod's features
- Help ensure shift-left practices, automation coverage, and clear quality gates are part of the definition of done
- Surface quality risks to your dev team and PM early before code ships, not after
- Track relevant quality metrics for your area: defect leakage, escaped defects, automation coverage, regression stability
AI-Assisted QA Engineering
- Use agentic tools (Claude Code, Kiro, Codex, or similar) to help generate test cases, triage CI failures, and maintain regression suites
- Validate AI-generated test output for correctness you're responsible for what ships, even when a tool helped write it
- Bring ideas back to the team on ways AI tooling can speed up testing work
Automation & Execution
- Contribute to test plans, sprint readiness, and release sign-off for your area
- Flag capacity risks and blockers early
Who You Are
Must Have
- 3 to 7 years of experience in QA or Quality Engineering, ideally in a fast-moving SaaS product environment (daily/weekly/bi-weekly releases)
- Hands-on experience using AI coding/testing assistants (Claude Code, Copilot, Kiro, Codex, or similar) in your day-to-day work
- Solid coding ability you can read, write, and reason about code, and contribute to or review test automation frameworks
- Experience with both manual testing and test automation comfortable moving between the two
- Strong communication and partnership instincts with developers and PMs
- Familiarity with shift-left practices thinking about quality early in the dev cycle
- Comfort with ambiguity able to take a fuzzy quality goal and turn it into concrete test coverage
Strong Plus
- Exposure to agentic QA workflows — self-healing tests, AI-generated regression suites, automated triage
- Background or interest in AppSec or security tooling (SAST, DAST, SCA, integrations)
- Experience testing AI features — understanding of prompting, output validation, hallucination risks
- Experience working in a pod or squad model with embedded QA
