Jobs in Sao Jose, United States

Alloy Automation is an integration development platform used by the likes of Amazon, Typeform, Xero, Best Buy, and many others to launch SaaS integrations at lightning speed. As the number of SaaS applications grows, integrations are more in-demand than ever, but most SaaS companies still build integrations in-house, a painful and slow process. We replace these outdated practices and help companies take their mind off integrations in order to focus on their core mission.

As we grow, maintaining product quality and confidence in every release is essential. We’re looking for a Software Engineer in Test to lead the charge in transforming how we test and ship software.

This person won’t just write automated tests. They’ll help drive a culture shift toward test-driven development (TDD), champion best practices in QA, and help engineers build a fast, reliable, automated testing pipeline. You’ll have a direct impact on how Alloy ships products, reduces bugs, and increases velocity, helping us scale with confidence.

• Design test strategies and build automated test frameworks for backend, frontend and integration testing
• Collaborate with engineers to shift from manual QA reliance toward automated, self-service testing
• Work closely with our Head of Engineering & Product to lead the push for test-driven development (TDD), pairing with developers to write tests alongside feature code
• Identify gaps in current testing processes and implement scalable solutions to increase test coverage, reliability, and product quality
• Own and maintain CI/CD test pipelines, ensuring fast, repeatable and reliable test runs
• Coach and mentor the engineering team on best practices for writing testable code and integrating tests into their daily workflow
• Collaborate with Product Managers, Support, SRE, and other Engineers to finalize requirements, identify real time use cases and improve test effectiveness.
• Help define and track quality metrics across the product, surfacing insights and process improvements to the broader team

• 3+ years of experience in software test automation, QA engineering or a similar role
• Strong hands-on experience building automated test suites (unit, integration, end-to-end) in modern languages and frameworks e.g. JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, etc.
• Expert with common test automation tools e.g. Cypress, Playwright, Selenium, Jest, Mocha, Pytest, etc. and experience working within CI/CD environments like GitHub Actions, CircleCI, Jenkins, etc.
• Passionate about automation and helping teams reduce manual overhead
• You’re curious, you want to know more, want to explore further, discover the unknowns and put efforts to deviate from a logical approach to uncover issues.
• Coach and strong collaborator - you enjoy partnering with engineers and helping them level up their testing practices
• Proactive and pragmatic - you can assess where automation will have the most impact and focus efforts there
• Detail oriented with a strong sense of product quality and a bias for action, coupled with a bias for shipping robust, well-tested code
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, evolving startup environment where you can help shape processes, not just follow them
