We're passionate about technology, compelled by its potential as we help create the digital products, experiences, and technology-driven organizations that drive true change. We’re thrilled by the opportunity to build the future we want to see, with anyone willing to join us.

Slalom Cloud-Build’s Quality Engineering (QE) discipline brings a modern approach to software quality, playing a critical role in high-velocity software engineering teams. We work with current and emerging tools and techniques to help build reliable, scalable software. Our expertise in software quality principles and techniques enables key principles of whole-team ownership of quality, close proximity of software development and test activities, and reliable, scalable test automation.

Our capability is comprised of passionate, flexible technologists who love to practice and hone their craft. As tools evolve and technologies emerge, we work to stay in front of innovation in automated software development and delivery.

We work in cross-functional teams to build full-stack solutions across a range of established and emerging technologies and techniques, including:

• Front end applications targeting native mobile and modern web platforms. Examples include React, Native iOS/Android, and Vue.
• APIs and back-end services built using emerging frameworks and architectural patterns. Examples include microservices, Node, Typescript, Java and .Net.

• Data Engineering applications for real-time data solutions, data platforms, visualization, machine learning, and artificial intelligence.
• Operational efficiencies leveraging modern ecosystems and automated build and deployment pipelines.
• Collaborative build practices that allow our teams to be agile and responsive to our clients’ needs.

We are looking for candidates who are interested in working in a hybrid environment as we build the foundation and grow our team in Medellin and Bogota. We offer a flexible working environment to balance the need to work independently, with days that may require in-person collaboration at our office.
