This is a hands-on role with meaningful ownership over the end-to-end quality of production systems used by large enterprise customers.

What You'll Do

• Define and execute quality strategies and test plans aligned with the product roadmap and release cycles

• Partner closely with software engineers, product managers, and platform teams to embed quality throughout the development lifecycle

What Will Make You Successful

Must-Haves

• Experience automating browser-based enterprise applications using modern frameworks such as Playwright

• Experience with automated API testing and validating complex cross-service workflows

• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced startup environment while balancing speed with high quality

• Comfort operating as the sole QA engineer, with full ownership of quality practices, while working within a senior engineering team

Nice-to-Haves

• Practical experience with TypeScript and contributing to shared automation codebases

• Familiarity with cloud-native technologies, particularly AWS

• Strong written and verbal communication skills for documenting test plans and collaborating cross-functionally

• Interest or experience in testing AI-enabled products or ML-powered systems, including using AI to automate tests

Why Join Us

You’ll be the driving force behind quality at Asteri, owning our quality engineering practices end-to-end and shaping how enterprise-grade AI systems get delivered to production. We offer competitive compensation, a remote-friendly culture, and a pragmatic, production-first mindset as we build the future of work orchestration.
