About the Role

Behind every great software company is the team building it. We are an engineering team of highly collaborative, fully distributed, humble learners. We pride ourselves on building best-in-class products powered by innovative technologies.

At CaptivateIQ, Quality Engineering is part of the Reliability, Infrastructure and Quality (RIQ) pillar and partners with teams throughout the engineering organization. Members of the team coach and play with our engineering teams to improve our products. We do this using the Quality Assistance approach: Quality Engineering works closely with the development teams to enhance their testing strategies, lead efforts to resolve pain points, assess and mitigate product quality risks. We help solve quality challenges by implementing solutions and frameworks that our engineering teams use to deliver high quality code instead of just doing testing.

Responsibilities:

• Work closely with our Frontend engineering team to deliver improvements to our core frontend components and design systems that are used across the organization.
• Support our Frontend engineering team with improvements to testability of our core frontend components and design system framework that are used across the organization.
• Support and maintain internal solutions built by our team.
• Provide testing guidance on projects, ensure that various quality aspects were taken into account, including performance, usability, integrity and help developers set clear expectations for both functional and non-functional requirements while evaluating potential product quality risks.
• Improve and maintain the existing test automation and delivery pipeline across the org.
• Analyze bottlenecks and make a difference by suggesting improvement actions.
• Make sure that testing goals are identified and met at the project level.
• Assist in long-term quality improvement efforts, such as establishing additional quality gates.

Requirements:

• 4+ years experience in a software engineering role
• Proficiency with Typescript, React, Python and Django
• Experience with both frontend and backend development, with a strong focus on frontend
• Experience with modern test automation frameworks such as Jest and Cypress
• Experience using modern testing methodologies to test a large SaaS product
• Strong communication skills, both written and verbal
• Experience building or maintaining a positive, productive remote-first culture
• Experience making data-driven decisions on product and process

Nice to have:

• Understanding Single Page Applications (SPAs), micro front-end architectures (MFAs) and Content Delivery Networks (CDNs)
• Ability to build and maintain Github Actions pipelines
• Experience with building and maintaining Deployment Processes
• Experience in improving Developer Experience
• Relevant experience with full stack development
