  • Automate Everything: Build and own the test infrastructure, coding robust automation for all acceptance suites within our CI/CD pipelines.
  • Innovate: Implement AI-driven testing tools to accelerate test case generation and visual regression checks.
  • Coach & Mentor: Guide engineers on TDD/BDD practices, ensuring the entire team writes high-quality, testable code.
  • Quality Gatekeeper: Challenge requirements early to ensure they are unambiguous, complete, and fully testable before a single line of code is written.

  • Be cautious of an offer made with no real interview, or pressure to decide quickly or share financial details early.
