Job description

COMPANY

Our product value management platform connects commercial and product teams to optimize decision making, drive process efficiencies, and engage customers with compelling products and experiences. Propel has a proven track record of improving product quality, speeding time to revenue and profit, and improving customer satisfaction. Recognized as a Deloitte Technology Fast 500 winner and one of Fortune's Most Innovative Companies in America, Propel is built on Salesforce and drives product success for hyper growth startups, corporate pioneers, and Fortune 500 leaders in the high tech, medtech and consumer goods industries.

ROLE

We are looking for a Senior Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) who treats quality engineering as a software engineering discipline.

This role is for a deeply technical engineer who intentionally applies strong development skills to product quality, reliability, and delivery confidence. You will own quality engineering for complex features and product areas: shaping test strategy, building durable automation, validating integrations and real user workflows, and improving the speed and trustworthiness of delivery feedback.

The ideal candidate is an accomplished engineer who has intentionally chosen quality engineering because they care about reliability, customer experience, and preventing failures-not merely detecting them. They write clean, maintainable production-quality code; understand how modern systems fail; and use AI-assisted development tools thoughtfully to improve test design, implementation, debugging, and analysis. They also understand that AI does not replace test strategy, domain reasoning, independent validation, or engineering accountability.

This is a hands-on quality engineering role: automation and test-platform engineering are core to how we scale quality, but you will also personally perform functional and exploratory testing when needed to understand the product, validate risk, and support release decisions.
