  • Experience conducting integration, system, and performance testing.
  • Familiarity with test planning, test execution, and troubleshooting across product lifecycles.
  • Demonstrated ability to analyze failure trends and post-delivery feedback to identify root causes and recommend corrective actions.
  • Effective communication skills for collaboration with internal technical teams and clients.
  • Preferred Qualifications

  • Advanced knowledge of quality management standards (e.g., ISO 9001, Six Sigma, CMMI).
  • Experience with test automation frameworks and tools.
  • Proficiency in data analysis techniques for identifying process or product deviations and performance issues.
  • Familiarity with requirements analysis, software testing, and validation methodologies.
  • Prior experience in leading QA initiatives or managing quality projects.

  • Relevant professional certifications (e.g., ASQ Certified Quality Engineer, ISTQB, Six Sigma Green / Black Belt).
  • Come break things (in a good way). Then build them smarter.

    We're the tech company everyone calls when things get weird. We don't wear capes (they're a safety hazard), but we do solve high-stakes problems with code, caffeine, and a healthy disregard for "how it's always been done."
