Senior Software Engineer, Test – Org Modeling

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in California, +8 more states.

📋 Description

• Create and develop high-quality systems from start to finish — not merely adding tests, but designing the framework, tools, and procedures that empower the team to deliver with assurance.

• Construct quality incrementally: Establish the vision for various layers (unit, integration, E2E, Load/Performance, Security, Chaos testing, etc.) and lead the team through this process by taking responsibility for several layers of the guardrails.

• Actively partner in quality within your squad — participate in squad discussions, facilitate cross-team communication, manage incoming requests, troubleshoot problems, and drive them to resolution; represent quality in standups, planning sessions, and code evaluations.

• Lead performance and load testing efforts — collaborate with engineers on the design and execution of load tests, create dashboards to track results, and implement ongoing monitoring practices.

• Advocate for the use of AI tools in your daily tasks as well as those of your colleagues to create a cross-functional impact.

• Incorporate automated tests into CI/CD to support continuous testing and rapid feedback loops from commit to production.

• Oversee test results and failures — identify root causes, monitor defects, collaborate with engineering teams and stakeholders to resolve issues swiftly, and enhance signal quality over time.

• Promote contract and chaos testing — bring knowledge of contract testing patterns and chaos/resilience testing to uncover systemic vulnerabilities before they reach production.

• Encourage ongoing process enhancements — assess and refine testing tools, methodologies, and reporting practices to ensure the quality system remains pertinent as the product evolves.

• Work together on test planning with Engineers, Product Managers, and Designers to enhance coverage and guarantee that test cases mirror real user scenarios.

⛳️ Requirements

• A systems-oriented mindset regarding quality — you view testing as an engineering practice, constructing reliable, maintainable, layered systems rather than isolated test scripts.

• Extensive testing knowledge across several layers: functional, integration, contract, performance/load, chaos, and security testing — you don't need to master all of these, but you comprehend each layer and can set the vision, contribute to, and guide work across all of them.

• Technical acumen — you are proficient in reading and writing code; you're adaptable to various languages and frameworks based on the current stack.

• Experience with object-oriented programming languages (C#, Java, Python, or similar) is a significant advantage.

• Background in performance and load testing — you understand how to create meaningful load tests, analyze results, develop dashboards, and track performance trends over time.

• Proficiency in AI tools — you actively leverage AI tools to enhance your workflow and assist the team in automating processes more efficiently.

• Skills in troubleshooting and tool navigation — you are comfortable exploring unfamiliar systems, reviewing logs, utilizing observability tools, and diagnosing complex failures.

• Familiarity with CI/CD and DevOps — experience in integrating test automation into pipelines (like GitHub Actions, Teamcity, Jenkins, or similar) and a solid grasp of deployment procedures.

• Knowledge of SQL and data querying — proficient in SQL (preferably PostgreSQL and/or MS-SQL) for validating backend states and troubleshooting data-layer problems.

• Collaboration and team engagement — you are responsive, involved, and take ownership of quality requests from your team without needing prompting.

• Experience with API and contract testing — knowledgeable about testing integrations across service boundaries, including third-party APIs.

• Strong version control and code hygiene — maintain robust Git practices, ensure clean and reusable test code, and treat test code with the same diligence as production code.

• Self-driven, detail-oriented, and capable of operating and thriving in a fast-paced environment characterized by periods of uncertainty.

🏝️ Benefits

• Flexible working hours, recognition, and support for independent work: Flexible time off accompanied by numerous learning and development opportunities to further your career.

• Comprehensive onboarding program, leadership training for Titans at every level, and various programs and events.

• Exceptional work is acknowledged through Bonusly, peer-nominated awards, and more.

• Comprehensive health and wellness benefits: Company-sponsored medical, dental, and vision coverage (with options fully covered by the employer and 90% coverage for dependents), FSA and HSA, 401k matching, and telehealth options including memberships to One Medical.

• Support for Titans at all life stages: Parental leave and support, up to $20k in fertility services (i.e. IUI and IVF), surrogacy and adoption reimbursement, on-demand maternity assistance through Maven Maternity, free breast milk shipping via Maven Milk, pet insurance, legal advisory services, financial planning tools, and more.
