About This Role
Job Overview
This Quality Engineer position is about building confidence in the product, not just finding bugs. You'll work on the systems that ensure reliability and performance from design through delivery. It's a hands on role where your analysis directly shapes development priorities. The position is based in Brooklyn, NY, offering a chance to impact products used in a real world setting.
Duties & Responsibilities
- Develop and execute test plans for both new features and legacy systems.
- Automate regression tests to keep pace with rapid release cycles.
- Analyze failure data from production to identify root causes and prevent recurrence.
- Collaborate with development teams to define quality metrics and acceptance criteria early in the design phase.
- Document defects with clear reproduction steps and advocate for their resolution based on user impact.
Requirements
- You're comfortable writing automated tests in a language like Python, Java, or JavaScript.
- Practical experience with CI/CD pipelines and how testing integrates into them is a must.
- A solid grasp of SQL for data validation and backend testing.
- You've probably spent a few years in a QA or development role where you moved beyond manual testing.
- A bachelor's degree in engineering, computer science, or a related technical field is typically expected.
- The work involves sustained focus; reviewing code, designing test suites, and troubleshooting complex issues requires deep concentration.
What It's Like In This Role
You'll join an engineering team where quality is a shared responsibility. Your day might start with a stand up discussing deployment blockers, then shift to writing automation scripts before digging into a tricky performance issue reported by a customer. The tools vary but often include Selenium, JIRA, Postman, and whatever the devs are using for their stack. Expect a steady flow of work; it isn't always frantic, but deadlines for major releases bring predictable intensity.
Why You'll Like This Opportunity
The projects here aren't theoretical; they ship. You'll get exposure to different parts of the tech stack and have room to propose new testing strategies. There's genuine potential to grow into roles focused on test architecture or site reliability engineering. Because JobXi lists openings from various employers across Brooklyn, NY, you're seeing a wider range of environments than you would on a single company career page.
