Our products make it easier for coaches and athletes at any level to capture video, analyze data, share highlights and more.

We're seeking an experienced, automation-focused Senior Quality Assurance Engineer to join our North American Sports product team. This team develops insightful analytics and Recruit products for American Football, helping high-level coaches and analysts make faster, data-driven decisions on player performance and talent acquisition.

As the testing expert within your cross‑functional squad, you'll own quality end‑to‑end — building the strategies and automation that ensure we're shipping software our users love. You'll drive quality discussions, challenge the team to maintain high standards, and be the advocate for reliability and performance at every stage of delivery.

Senior Quality Assurance Engineer

As a Senior Quality Assurance Engineer, you'll:

• Lead quality initiatives. Build risk‑based testing strategies tailored to your squad’s architecture, drive quality discussions in scrum ceremonies, challenge defect priorities, and continuously look for ways to improve practices and keep your squad’s quality processes ahead of the curve.
• Design and execute tests spanning front‑end UI, APIs, backend services, and data pipelines — validating transformations, service outputs, and complex logic at scale.
• Use your technical depth and quality instincts to coach teammates, raise the bar for quality standards across the team, and influence how the whole squad thinks about quality.
• Partner closely with Engineering, Product, and Design, contribute to hiring, and invest in your own professional development.
• 4+ years of software testing experience with hands‑on expertise across the full stack — API testing, backend and data‑heavy systems, and front‑end validation — plus proficiency in automation frameworks like Playwright and languages like Python or TypeScript.
• You’ve owned quality for a squad, led testing initiatives end‑to‑end, defined success criteria, and designed approaches that measurably reduce risk in production.
• You dig to root causes of complex problems, back your findings with data, and measure outcomes.
• You think critically about the user experience and let that understanding shape your testing approach.
• AI‑powered working. You actively use AI tools in your day‑to‑day workflow — for test case creation, failure diagnosis, documentation, and beyond — and look for new ways to apply them to raise the team’s efficiency.
• Performance testing exposure. Familiarity with load, stress, and scalability testing concepts and tools (e.g. JMeter) for validating API and backend performance.
• Passion for or experience in Basketball, American Football or Ice Hockey — whether as an athlete, coach, or fan — and an appreciation for the unique challenges of sports technology.
