We're hiring a QA Engineer who treats latency budgets like personal grudges and SQL like a second language. This gently-demanding role offers $80,000 - $114,000, full ownership of Jasmine projects, and the support of a team that ships together.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, build, and maintain reliable backend services using Karate and Mobile Testing
• Negotiate SQL tradeoffs with product when Blackstone timelines and reality collide
• Own the full lifecycle of technology systems from prototype to production
• Prototype rough SpecFlow ideas fast, then decide which earn a place in Blackstone's stack
• Identify bottlenecks and propose architectural improvements proactively
• Build the Load Testing tooling that makes every other St. Paul engineer faster
• Keep the Continuous Integration build pipeline green so St. Paul deploys never wait on a red light
• Translate technology compliance rules into Jasmine guardrails baked into the build

What You'll Bring

• Customer-focused outlook with strong interpersonal skills
• Comfort steering technology conversations toward a decision
• Confident communicator across email, calls, and in-person meetings
• Resilience measured across 4 years of technology cycles
• A Blackstone mindset: scrappy today, scalable tomorrow
• Comfort navigating ambiguity when the brief arrives half-written
• A point of view on Blackstone's space, sharpened by your own reading

We are a purpose-led technology company, and Blackstone calls St. Paul, MN home. We celebrate SpecFlow craftsmanship and hold ourselves to a high bar on the details that matter.

Here is the deal: $80,000 - $114,000, a mentor who answers, benefits that hold up, and a flexible freelance schedule that fits real life.
