You bring a systems mindset to quality - not just finding bugs, but designing the frameworks and feedback loops that prevent them at scale. You’re energized by ownership: leading cross-functional quality initiatives, mentoring teammates, and making deliberate technical choices that raise the bar across the engineering organization. You embrace AI-powered tooling not as a buzzword, but as a practical lever for accelerating coverage and reducing toil. What skills do I need? Must-haves 4–7 years of QA experience with a balanced blend of manual testing and automation. Hands-on expertise with Cypress and TypeScript/JavaScript automation frameworks. Solid experience with API testing tools (e.g., Postman) and ideally automating API tests. Strong exploratory/manual testing skills for complex SaaS products. Experience integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines. Proven, hands-on experience using AI-powered tools (e.g., Mabl, Momentic, Rainforest QA, or LLM-based assistants such as Claude) to improve testing quality, efficiency, or coverage. Demonstrated experience leading quality initiatives both formally (e.g., owning a framework migration, rollout, or cross-team testing strategy) and informally (e.g., driving alignment between QA and engineering without direct authority). Nice-to-haves Experience designing or implementing performance/load testing strategies. Exposure to other automation frameworks (Playwright, Selenium) or languages (Python). Interest in IoT technologies or embedded systems. Experience applying AI beyond test generation — e.g., intelligent failure triage, anomaly detection, or AI-assisted code review for test suites. Key

responsibilities Automation & framework ownership Own and evolve Tulip’s Cypress + TypeScript E2E automation framework, driving expanded coverage across critical product surfaces. Integrate automated test suites into CI/CD pipelines to deliver fast, reliable feedback loops for engineering teams. Research and implement load and performance testing strategies to ensure system reliability at scale. AI-powered quality Apply AI-assisted tools to accelerate test generation, triage failures, and improve overall coverage velocity. Identify opportunities to use AI beyond test creation — including intelligent failure analysis, anomaly detection, and AI-assisted code review for test suites. Execute exploratory, regression, and manual tests on new features to build domain expertise and validate automation coverage. Technical leadership & cross-functional impact Mentor QA teammates by promoting automation best practices, leading test plan reviews, and improving quality visibility across the organization. Lead cross-functional quality initiatives by coordinating with engineers across product teams, aligning on testing strategy, and driving projects from scoping through delivery. Serve as a quality advocate in engineering planning, ensuring testability and quality standards are embedded early in the development process.
