before

our users do, then help us bullet-proof it. What You’ll Own Test strategy & execution – author, maintain, and continuously improve test plans, cases, scenarios, and checklists across web (React/TypeScript) and service layers (REST, GraphQL). Automation at scale – build and extend reliable Playwright / Puppeteer suites for regression, smoke, and performance. CI is GitHub Actions; flaky tests get no mercy. LLM safety testing – design adversarial prompt-injection and jailbreak scenarios for our Langfuse/OpenAI pipelines; validate guardrails, rate limits, and red-team exploits. API diligence – craft Postman / code-level tests that hammer our endpoints, validate schema changes, and surface latent edge-cases. Quality culture – pair with devs on PRs, champion shift-left testing, and turn bug reports into repeatable test artifacts.

Must-haves Hands-on QA experience working on complex, production-grade software systems 3–5 years hands-on QA (exceptional candidates with ~2 yrs experience in automation-focused QA roles are also welcome) Automation-first mindset — even when testing manually, you think in systems, inputs/outputs, and repeatability. Ability to perform deep manual testing by reasoning about system state, data integrity, async behavior, and edge conditions. Strong QA fundamentals: test design techniques, exploratory testing, regression planning, and defect lifecycle. Working knowledge of REST APIs and hands-on experience validating API behavior beyond the UI. Able to work async, write clear documentation, and give direct, constructive feedback.

Nice-to-haves Exposure to JavaScript/TypeScript or similar programming languages, with the ability to read test code and reason about automation patterns. Hands-on experience contributing to test automation frameworks (Playwright, Puppeteer, Cypress, or similar). Practical exposure to GraphQL testing. Experience working with CI/CD environments (GitHub Actions, Vercel, or similar). Interest or early experience testing LLM-powered features or AI workflows. Basic performance or load testing exposure (k6, Artillery, etc.).

What’s In It For You Autonomy, not bureaucracy – ship improvements end-to-end. Direct impact – your work touches thousands of proposals a day. Fair comp + meaningful equity – we’re scaling, you’ll ride the upside.
