Software Development Engineer, Test
Onebrief
• Implement strategies that improve release integrity — from automation in CI/CD pipelines to validation processes that increase confidence in deployments. • Instrumenting quality health metrics and dashboards that give teams clear visibility into product stability, release readiness, and test effectiveness. • Driving internal tooling initiatives that improve the developer experience and enable teams to test, measure, and ship with higher confidence. • Partnering across engineering, infrastructure, and product to identify opportunities for system-level quality improvements and advocate for automation-first approaches. • Using data and experimentation to continuously refine our approach to quality and ensure we’re focusing on the most impactful areas. • Working with your fellow engineers to develop first class quality measures that align with overall quality strategy, with a focus on monitoring and observability
Job Requirements
- Understanding of modern quality engineering best practices, with the judgment to know when to apply or adapt them pragmatically.
- Strong technical foundation in release management, automation frameworks, and CI/CD systems, with experience improving release reliability through data-driven quality initiatives.
- 2+ years of experience building and maintaining test automation at multiple layers (integration, end-to-end) for complex applications, using modern languages such as C++/C#, GD Script, or Python.
- Proven experience using shift-left quality practices that improve code quality, deployment confidence, and developer velocity.
- Hands-on experience with performance, resilience, and security testing, including integration of those checks into CI/CD pipelines and observability systems.
- Experience building internal tools or developer utilities that enhance testability, observability, and overall release integrity.
- Strong understanding of API quality, including contract validation and dependency testing in distributed systems.
