About The Position

We are looking for a Staff SDET to join our team. This is a broad, high-impact startup role spanning technical strategy, hands-on execution, platform development, and organizational enablement. You’ll serve as a company-wide subject matter expert for quality engineering, with a primary mandate to define, drive, and operationalize AI-enabled transformation across QA and the broader Engineering organization. You’ll lead major cross-functional initiatives, define quality engineering roadmaps, and build scalable tooling, frameworks, and practices that help teams move faster without sacrificing quality.

You’ll also mentor others, help evolve the QA organization toward increasingly automation/AI-first workflows, and raise the technical bar across Engineering through guilds and learning sessions. This is a staff-level individual contributor role with significant autonomy, no people management responsibility, and close partnership with the Engineering Manager of QA, Director of Quality, and Sr. Director of Infrastructure.
