Job description

NextGenAgTechwith In Time Tec builds web and mobile software used tooperatefeedlots, manage cattlepurchasingand transportation, andmaintainfinancial records used by owners and lenders. Our products support yard operations, animal health, billing, financing,logistics, and reporting acrossweb, iOS, and Android.

The testing challenge is consequential: a defect can affect an operator’s books, an animal-health workflow, or a time-sensitive decision in the yard. We are expanding QA capacity while building automation that helps us release faster without accepting greater operational or financial risk.

The mandate

You will own test strategy and automation architecture for a product suite spanning yard operations, cattlepurchasing, financial workflows, and dispatch. This is a hands-on senior individual-contributor role: you will write code, make framework decisions, review tests, mentor engineers, and give leadership a clear view of release risk.

Our automation practice is growing rather than finished. You will have meaningful authority over framework andcoveragedecisions, along with responsibility for ensuring those choicesremainmaintainable as the product evolves.

What you will own

End-to-end test strategy: what to automate, what should remain exploratory or manual, and where testing investment reduces the most risk.

Playwright framework architecture, including fixtures, reusable utilities, parallel execution, tracing, reporting, and maintainability standards.

UI, API, integration, contract, and data-layer coverage for critical workflows.

Release-quality gates and risk-based recommendations about whether software is ready to ship.

CI/CD test health, including lower flake, faster feedback, and actionable failure reporting.

Root-cause analysis of production incidents and escaped defects, translated into durable regression coverage.

Standards for AI-assisted test design and automation, including human review and coverage-gap analysis.

Technical mentoring and testability guidance for QA and development engineers.

What you would test

Yard operations, including lots, pens, feed delivery, commodities, animal-health records, and treatments.

Financial workflows, including billing, interest, loans, payments, statements, hedges, and lender-facing reporting.

Purchasing andlogistics, including cattle records, hauling, dispatch, and automated notifications.

Customer workflows across web, iOS, and Android in English and Spanish.

What success looks like

In your first60 days, you assess current coverage, test debt, pipeline health, and the highest-risk operational and financial workflows.

Within six months, youestablishthe framework architecture, automation priorities, ownership standards, and initial release-quality gates.

Within one year, the team has materially better regressionsignal, more stable automated coverage, and a faster path from code change to trustworthy feedback.

What you bring

Five or more years of experience in QA or SDET roles, including substantial hands-on test-automation experience.

A track recordof designing or significantly scaling a production test-automation framework, not only writing individual tests.

Deep, practical Playwright or comparable modern automation experience, including fixtures, parallelization, retries, tracing, and reporting.

Strong programming or scripting experience in TypeScript, Python, C#, ora comparablelanguage.

Experience with API, integration, contract, and CI/CD testing.

Strong SQL skills for test-data setup, financial and operational validation, and investigation across application and database state.

Risk-basedreleasejudgment and the ability to communicate that judgment to technical and nontechnical stakeholders.

Experience mentoring engineers and improving how a team designs for testability.

Mobile automation for native iOS or Android applications.

Performance and load testing, accessibility testing, visual regression, or security-testing fundamentals such as the OWASP Top 10.

Internal quality tooling, dashboards, or production-telemetry feedback loops.

Experience in agriculture, fintech,logistics, oranother operationally sensitive domain.

Technology

Our core testing environment includes Playwright, Postman, GitHub, GitHub Actions, Azure SQL, Docker, and AI-assisted test design and automation.
