Software Quality Engineer 3

As our software quality engineer, you’ll be part of a team that will build quality into our software – that is, you’ll be involved in a product’s life cycle from start to finish. You’ll execute tests through the full stack and assist with the maintenance or document management and generation product lines. To start, your primary focus will be manual testing, but automation support will become a notable portion of your workload. You’ll work collaboratively with business analysts, developers, and quality assurance peers to not just spot errors or weaknesses in systems and products, but also invent solutions that result in a reliable, secure, and enjoyable customer experience.

• Research, evaluate, recommend, and provide technical leadership for enhancements to quality assurance processes and systems.
