About The Position

As a Quality Automation Engineer at Infotech, you will help ensure the quality, reliability, and performance of software products used by state transportation agencies, contractors, and local governments. You will join a fast-paced development team and own testing practices, from the frameworks that run checks to standards that shape how the engineering organization approaches quality.

You will collaborate with engineers and product managers early in development to define acceptance criteria and build for testability. The role focuses on scalable, maintainable automated testing, CI/CD integration, shift-left practices, and continuous improvement, including exploring AI tools and new techniques. The position is open to fully remote candidates within the United States, requires up to 10% travel, and may occasionally require after-hours work.
