Job Description

We encourage everyone to find the process that works for them. We don't have set hours, just things that need to get done. We are highly collaborative (and we're all very good friends, so that helps) when necessary, but we try to limit meetings so as to allow as much time and space to let our builders, build. 

From there, we are looking for a QA engineer who will be doing the following:

  • Build test and infrastructure tools and processes
  • Create, maintain and execute test plans and test cases
  • Develop and maintain automated test scripts
  • Participate in code/bug review processes
  • Identify areas of optimization
  • Mine issues from log files

Skills & Requirements

Below are some "requirements". But we use that term lightly. If you have all/some/or have alternative approaches to solving QA issues, that's fine too. Let us know.

  • Passion for finding bugs and making something BETTER
  • Intuitive sense of UX
  • Comprehensive knowledge of various QA methods (Functional, Integration, Regression, etc.), and when to use them
  • Experience with automation frameworks such as Selenium, UIAutomation (Xcode Instrument), Telerik, etc.
  • Experience working with cross-functional teams
  • Experience with cross-browser-compatibility issues, bug tracking systems, version control systems
  • Able to manage multiple environments (development, testing, staging, production)
  • Solid experience architecting data sets to exercise both common and edge cases of a system

Nice to have things:

  • Experience testing mobile applications
  • *nix skills
  • AWS administration experience
  • MySQL / NoSQL
  • PHP
  • jQuery
  • Splunk
