It’s important to note that, in this instance, the role does not involve immediate hiring but rather serves as a part of a pipeline for future recruitments.

We're looking for a QA Engineer with experience testing AI-powered applications. The ideal candidate has hands-on experience evaluating non-deterministic AI systems (LLMs, AI agents, and RAG applications) and building or maintaining evaluation frameworks (eval engineering) to measure quality, detect regressions, and improve AI system performance.

• Create detailed, comprehensive, and well-structured test plans and test cases.

• Review client needs and technical specifications with the development team to provide timely and meaningful feedback.

• Estimate, prioritize, plan, and coordinate testing activities.

• Identify, record, document thoroughly, and track bugs.

• Design, develop, and execute automation scripts (including Playwright-based automation).

• Perform thorough regression testing when bugs are resolved.

• Track quality assurance metrics and reports.

• Design and maintain evaluation suites (evals) to validate AI-powered features and detect regressions in model behavior.

• Test non-deterministic AI systems, including LLM-based features, AI agents, and RAG applications, using qualitative and quantitative evaluation methods.

• Analyze AI outputs, identify failure patterns (hallucinations, instruction-following issues, grounding, etc.), and collaborate with engineers to improve system quality.

• Stay up to date with new testing tools, AI evaluation techniques, and quality assurance strategies while driving continuous improvement.

• Investigate the causes of software defects and collaborate with the development team to implement preventive solutions.

• Collaborate on internal initiatives.

Which skills and experience do we envision for this role?

• Background in Software Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.

• Experience testing AI-powered applications or LLM-based systems.

• Understanding of the challenges of testing non-deterministic systems and validating AI-generated outputs.

• Experience with evaluation engineering, including building or maintaining evals, benchmark datasets, or automated AI quality evaluations.

Nice to have:

• Knowledge of CI/CD pipelines and automated test integration.

• Experience testing AI agents, RAG applications, or conversational AI systems.
