- QAD Redzone is changing an industry with a people-based approach to continuous improvement. Our products quickly boosts productivity and morale by addressing plant-specific production issues that affect production, quality, and maintenance teams.
- We are looking for a proven SDET to work alongside our developers on a cross functional delivery team.
- Our developers innovate rather than merely follow a script. We value their input and ideas, allowing us to deliver products and functionalities ahead of our competitors. We take pride in staying at the forefront of the industry.
- Our iOS and tvOS apps are built entirely in Swift, targeting the latest iOS releases, and we always strive to leverage the latest features and improvements. We are targeting Android as our next platform for these apps. Backend services are largely in Scala.
- The Senior SDET designs, develops, and maintains the overall quality strategy and execution for complex software systems, ensuring scalable, reliable, and secure solutions. This role bridges development and quality, fostering innovation, mentoring team members, and embedding best practices to deliver exceptional user experiences through robust testing frameworks, and continuous improvement of new product functionality and testing of non-functional requirements such as logging, error handling, connection retries, and others.
This role is fully remote, but must be based in Mexico with full work authorization already in effect. No Visa sponsorship available.
Key Responsibilities
- Enable High-Quality Code Delivery: Execute quality practices empowering delivery teams to write higher-quality code with ease by integrating robust testing strategies into their workflows.
- Participate in Validation Testing Sessions: Facilitate round-table sessions with delivery engineers and product owners to perform validation testing before releasing new code, serving as a stopgap measure while driving efforts to automate these processes for a more efficient long-term solution.
- Build Automation Frameworks: Build frameworks enabling the automation of tests
- Track and Map Testing Coverage: Develop a deep understanding of each software module’s features, product test cases, and map these to unit, integration, and other test types, ensuring comprehensive test coverage and alignment with product goals.
- Develop and Integrate Tests: Develop and integrate tests across the full technology stack, including UI, API, and database layers, as well as supporting performance, security, and stress testing.
- Develop Scalable Test Frameworks: Design and maintain reusable, scalable test automation frameworks that simplify testing processes and reduce manual effort for delivery teams.
- Drive Shift-Left Testing: Promote early testing practices in the development lifecycle, enabling teams to identify and resolve defects sooner and reduce overall development costs.
- Mentor and Guide Teams: Provide technical guidance and mentorship to engineers, fostering a culture of quality and continuous improvement across delivery teams.
- Deliver Actionable Quality Metrics: Define and track key quality metrics, providing delivery teams and stakeholders with insights to improve software reliability and performance.
The ideal candidate will have:
- 5+ years of experience in Testing mobile (required) and web applications
- Solid understanding of the iOS and Android development ecosystem (including testing and debugging) required
- Strong software architecture, design, and workflow skills
- A proactive mindset with the ability to constantly seek to identify and solve testing issues
