At Qualia, we've built the leading B2B real estate technology that transforms the home buying and selling experience into a simple, secure, and enjoyable process. Our SMB and Enterprise products bring together users from across the real estate ecosystem---homebuyers and sellers, lenders, title and escrow agents, and real estate agents---onto a single shared digital closing platform, providing greater clarity and transparency to real estate transactions. Today, through our business customers across the country, millions of consumers use Qualia to close on homes every year.

WHAT YOU'LL WORK ON

We are hiring pioneering and collaborative engineers to build our next generation of intelligent products. Our quality engineers are conscientious hackers who thrive on collaboration and are adept at driving large-scale projects in the fast-changing domain of artificial intelligence. You will be at the forefront of building the automation, tooling, and quality systems that let us ship complex, AI-driven products with confidence, bringing rigor and trust to a data-rich industry.

As a Quality Engineer, you build quality into the engineering process rather than testing it after the fact. You take ownership of well-defined but technically challenging quality problems, and you're trusted to make sound decisions on automation design without close supervision. You collaborate closely with software engineers, understand the systems you're testing at a deep level, and contribute to raising the quality bar on the team you work with.

RESPONSIBILITIES
  • Your work will focus on building and scaling our test automation, quality infrastructure, and performance testing systems
  • You'll lead the design and implementation of our core automation frameworks, including our migration from Cypress to Playwright, along with our performance testing framework 
  • You'll perform root cause analysis on product defects and test failures, triaging and debugging issues to determine whether the failure is in the product, the test, or the environment, before routing it to the right owner
  • You will tackle our most challenging quality problems, from automation architecture to AI-assisted testing, driving projects from ideation to deployment and beyond. Our engineers are generalists, and your responsibilities will be flexible based on company needs as well as your skills and interests. You will have a high degree of autonomy to identify and pursue impactful work
YOUR BACKGROUND THAT LIKELY MAKES YOU A MATCH
  • We are looking for strong quality engineers with 3-5+ years of experience building and maintaining test automation for complex software systems
  • You have excellent programming ability in JavaScript/TypeScript, and are comfortable writing and maintaining production-grade automation code
  • You have a proven track record of designing, leading, and delivering large-scale, cross-functional quality initiatives 
  • You're comfortable triaging and debugging test failures independently, and can do root cause analysis on both product bugs and flaky or failing tests not just report that something failed
  • You have hands-on experience integrating AI into the quality workflow, from test generation to flaky-test triage, along with the judgment to know when AI-generated output needs a closer look 
  • You have significant experience mentoring engineers and providing technical leadership that raises the bar for an entire engineering organization 
  • You have thrived in multiple engineering environments and have a history of driving quality strategy and vision

While this role is based in Austin, Texas, we're open to exploring remote possibilities for qualified candidates. We have other physical office locations in San Francisco, California, and Concord, New Hampshire.

THE TECH STACK YOU'LL USE
  • Javascript / NodeJS / Typescript
  • Cypress, Playwright, AI agentic framework 
  • Performance testing framework (JMeter / k6) 
  • MongoDB 
  • Microservice architecture / Kubernetes 
  • AWS / Google Cloud
