Senior Software Test Engineer
What you’ll be doing: As a Senior Software Test Engineer, the team will look to you for testing not only at the feature level, but on the product level. Not only will you be involved in writing tests and feature specs with developers, it’ll be your responsibility to manage test implementation and quality validation for the entire project. This includes everything from choosing and laying the groundwork for new test suites, to pushing back on deadlines when a project needs more TLC before release. Product confidence is a top priority for each team, and we’ll look to you to be its vanguard in each project.
Your core priorities will be to:
Experience with any programming language, we welcome engineers from various technical backgrounds
You are comfortable focusing on automated testing, but can manually test when necessary
Experience leading testing projects and balancing multiple concurrent projects with varying priorities
Passionate about software quality, using open source technologies, and learning new things.
You love to stretch and break other people’s code and are comfortable writing tests to validate code
Can communicate with non-technical team members about progress, challenges, or new ideas
Have a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience
What you should have:
Have experience with TDD, Cucumber, Selenium, or Rspec
Have mobile testing experience
Employ a working knowledge of testing modern web standards
Have testing experience in scalability, performance, or security
Have code on GitHub for personal or public open-source projects (send us links!)
Software Engineering Overview:
The Software Engineering Team, one of the largest groups in the company, is responsible and accountable for meeting the demands of our current and future businesses. We help create the “Tech” in FinTech.
We are structured into small full-stack teams, each aligned to specific business lines or core services. We code in RoR, Go, Java, and Swift. We use Ember and other JS frameworks for front-end development. The teams are responsible for defining and delivering solutions through smart interactive development.
Although we are divided into unique teams, our culture of collaboration promotes and encourages engagement across every team and department within the company - no team is a silo. This enables us to align our core values and create strong, best practices.
