Senior QA Engineer (Automation / SDET)

We’re looking for a Senior QA Engineer to help us build a modern, scalable quality engineering practice across our growing suite of applications.This is a highly hands-on role focused on automation, exploratory testing, regression prevention, and building confidence in production systems as we scale. You’ll work closely with Engineering, Product, Design, and Customer Success teams to identify critical user workflows, uncover edge cases, and build robust automated testing systems that catch regressions before our users do.Our frontend applications are built with Vue 3, TypeScript, Vite, and Tailwind, with APIs powered by Elixir and Phoenix.This is not a traditional QA “gatekeeper” role where releases wait on manual signoff. We believe quality is a shared responsibility across engineering teams. Your role will be to build systems, tooling, and testing strategies that improve release confidence without slowing down development velocity.You’ll help establish and evolve our end-to-end testing strategy from the ground up, including lightweight automated test suites that run against every pull request and broader regression and performance-oriented suites that run continuously and nightly.We’re looking for someone who enjoys thinking beyond happy paths - someone who actively looks for unintended user behavior, edge cases, regressions, and opportunities to strengthen product quality across the organization.This role requires strong autonomy, excellent cross-functional communication, and a mindset focused on scalable quality engineering rather than manual checklist testing.This opportunity is a W2 engagement with an initial 3-month introductory period, with the expectation of continued long-term employment for the right candidate. Hybrid or remote for the right candidate. What You’ll DoDesign, build, and maintain scalable end-to-end test automation frameworks using Cypress, Playwright, or similar toolingCreate lightweight smoke and spot-check suites that run against every pull requestBuild broader nightly regression suites focused on functional stability, user workflows, and performance regressionsPartner closely with Product, Engineering, Design, and Customer Success teams to identify high-risk workflows and critical user journeysPerform hands-on exploratory and black-box testing to uncover edge cases and unintended behaviorsDevelop testing strategies that reflect real-world user behavior rather than only expected happy pathsHelp improve application reliability, release confidence, and overall engineering quality cultureCollaborate with engineers to ensure new functionality is covered by automated testing over timeContribute to CI/CD testing workflows and release processesHelp define QA standards, tooling, and long-term automation strategy across multiple applicationsInvestigate emerging approaches to AI-assisted testing, intelligent test generation, and modern quality engineering workflowsIdentify opportunities for performance, resilience, and potentially security-focused testing improvements
