Who We Are
At BriteCore, we’re a dynamic, forward-thinking company on a mission to empower Property & Casualty (P&C) insurers to grow their business and achieve operational efficiencies with modern cloud-native technology.

Our software platform is mission-critical, enabling carrier customers to manage policies, billing, and claims with an all-in-one core insurance solution that delivers real-time analytics and digital portals for agents and policyholders. While others rely on outdated solutions, we’re leading the shift towards modern cloud technology. With a commitment to continuous innovation, BriteCore delivers new capabilities and enhancements with a flexible and scalable core insurance platform designed to meet the evolving needs of insurers.

We believe in creating an inclusive and collaborative work environment where team members are encouraged to share ideas, challenge the status quo, and grow both personally and professionally. Our distributed team is united by a shared passion for transforming the insurance industry and delivering exceptional service.

Join us at BriteCore and be part of a company that’s shaping the future of insurance technology. You’ll have the opportunity to work with talented individuals and make an impact. Your contributions will make a difference. If you’re ready to create something different, let’s build the future of insurance software together.

Summary
At BriteCore, we’re transforming the insurance industry with cutting-edge technology—and quality is at the heart of everything we do. As a Principal Software Quality Engineer, you’ll define and drive the strategy and execution of software quality initiatives across our application engineering and services teams.

You’ll design and maintain scalable, AI-augmented test frameworks, embed automated quality checks into CI/CD pipelines, and help define what “great” looks like in a modern SaaS engineering practice. You’ll also work in environments enhanced by agentic AI tools like Cursor and Visual Studio Code, collaborating with AI copilots to move faster and smarter.

This isn’t your traditional QA role. You can contribute to the codebase, submit PRs, and build intelligent systems that surface and prevent bugs before they make it to production. You’ll work closely with developers, product managers, and support engineers to elevate quality across the stack—from architecture to customer experience.

If you’re an engineer who thinks quality is the product, you’re obsessed with customer experience, and you enjoy writing just as much test logic as you do fixing bugs in app code—this is your role.

This is a fully remote based role, however candidates must be located in Argentina or Brazil. Note: this is a long-term Independent Contractor position.

Note: Please submit your resume in English.

What You'll Do

• Design and own QA strategies that support full lifecycle testing—from requirements to release—with scalability and customer value in mind
• Build and maintain test automation frameworks tightly integrated into CI/CD workflows
• Use agentic-AI and LLM-based copilots (e.g., Cursor, GitHub Copilot) to accelerate test writing, defect triage, and exploratory testing
• Translate vague or incomplete requirements into robust test plans, test cases, and automation code
• Collaborate with engineering, product, and support teams to debug issues, contribute code-level fixes, and submit PRs that improve product stability and user trust
• Analyze bugs across layers (UI, services, integrations, data) to identify root causes and reduce regression risk
• Create dashboards and alerts that monitor application health and track quality trends
• Advocate for a test-first, automation-heavy mindset across the organization
  
  
  
  
  

What You’ll Bring

• Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science or a related field
• 5+ years of experience in software or quality engineering, with a strong foundation in coding and test automation
• Experience building or extending automation frameworks from the ground up (e.g., Pytest, JUnit, Mocha)
• Track record of contributing to production code—whether fixing bugs, writing internal tools, or enhancing developer workflows
• Fluency with AI-assisted coding tools (e.g., Cursor, GitHub Copilot, or other agentic AI IDEs)
• Proficiency in Python, Java, or Node.js (bonus if you’re comfortable navigating large codebases)
• Strong ability to analyze and break down product requirements into testable components
• Familiarity with cloud platforms (especially AWS), containers (e.g., Docker), and CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions, GitLab CI)
• Experience validating data quality and integrity—accuracy, completeness, uniqueness, consistency
• Comfort testing and automating REST APIs using Postman, Swagger, or direct cURL
• SQL expertise for data analysis and test validation
• Excellent debugging instincts and a relentless, proactive mindset for finding and fixing issues before customers do
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
  
  
  
  
  

Bonus points

• Experience with SaaS and high-availability production environments
• Familiarity with tools like JIRA, Confluence, Git, Gitflow, GitHub/GitLab
• Knowledge of end-to-end test platforms like Playwright, Cypress, or Selenium
• Experience working at a scaling startup
