QA & Test Automation Engineer
Writes automated test suites, catches bugs before users do, and keeps every release production-ready.
About
Shipping fast without breaking things requires more than manual spot-checks. This employee writes and maintains automated test suites for critical user flows, runs regression tests before every deployment, monitors production for errors, and creates detailed bug reports with reproduction steps. It owns test coverage from unit tests to browser-level end-to-end tests and coordinates with engineering on bug prioritization. Quality isn't a phase — it's a continuous process baked into every release cycle.
