Job description

When a system is entrusted with protecting a base, a border, or an airport, “probably works” isn't good enough. You're the reason institutions can trust what we ship — the one who breaks it in the lab so reality never breaks it in the field.

What you'll own

• Own quality end to end across a distributed system — edge pipelines, AI services, web, and mobile.
• Build the testing foundation: API / contract tests, Playwright UI automation, CI/CD gates, and regression suites.
• Design test strategy for non-deterministic AI / CV — where “correct” is a probability, and edge cases matter most.
• Run load and stress testing against live RTSP pipelines; break it before the field does.
• Set the quality bar and culture as a founding QA hire.

What we're looking for

• 3+ years in QA / test automation, ideally on complex or data / AI-heavy products.
• Strong automation: Playwright / Selenium, API testing, CI/CD; Python or JavaScript.
• A rigorous, truth-seeking mindset — assume nothing, verify everything.
• Comfort testing systems that aren't purely deterministic.
