About the Role

We’re building product in a highly dynamic, modern development environment where engineers and Product Managers ship together. Quality is not a final gate - it’s embedded in how we build. We’re looking for a Quality Engineer who is excited to shape how quality works in an AI-assisted, fast-iteration setup.

This role blends exploratory testing, systems thinking, automation, and AI-driven testing approaches. You’ll help define quality practices for a team that moves quickly and values real-world product reliability.

Tasks

What You’ll Do

Lead exploratory testing to uncover edge cases, usability issues, and real user risks
Design and execute test strategies that evolve with the product
Use AI-assisted tools to generate, expand, and maintain test coverage
Partner closely with Engineers and Product Managers during feature development-not after
Identify quality risks early and help teams address them before release
Contribute to automated testing where it makes sense (API, integration, end-to-end)
Continuously improve testing workflows, tooling, and feedback loops

Requirements

What We’re Looking For

Strong experience in exploratory testing and risk-based testing
A modern quality mindset: quality as a team responsibility, not a silo
Comfort using AI tools to assist with test generation, analysis, and validation
Experience working in fast-paced, iterative product environments
Ability to think in systems, not just test cases
Clear communication and confidence collaborating with Engineers and PMs
Pragmatic judgment about when to automate and when to explore manually

Nice to Have

Experience building or maintaining automated test suites
Familiarity with modern testing frameworks and CI/CD pipelines
Experience testing AI-powered or data-driven features
Background in product, UX, or customer support insights
Interest in improving developer and tester experience through better tooling

Benefits

Why Join Us

Define what modern QA looks like in an AI-enabled product team
Work alongside builders - Engineers and PMs who ship

Experiment with new testing approaches and tools
Help scale quality without slowing teams down

How We Work

Quality is embedded from discovery through production
Rapid iteration with frequent releases
Heavy use of modern tools, including AI-assisted development and testing
Minimal process overhead, strong ownership
Focus on impact, learning, and continuous improvement
