Description

Required Qualifications
• Demonstrated product judgment: able to derive intended behavior from a ticket and identify gaps between a passing implementation and the intended outcome.
• Risk-based test prioritization.
• Proficiency with AI tooling (Claude, Claude Code, or equivalent) integrated into a working QA process.
• Proficiency with Playwright: able to run, interpret, triage, and repair end-to-end specs, including diagnosing flaky tests. Authoring the full suite is not required; engineers write their own tests.

• Clear, actionable written communication for defect reports and release summaries.
• Ability to operate autonomously within a defined goal.

Preferred Qualifications
• Prior ownership of a release or staging-promotion process.
• CI/CD experience (GitHub Actions); cross-browser test debugging (Firefox, WebKit).
• Experience with geospatial or mapping interfaces, data visualization, or scientific-modeling products.
• Familiarity with product analytics tooling (e.g., PostHog) for instrumentation verification.

Working Model
• Embedded member of the ALP-U sprint team.
• Participation in standups, sprint planning, and retrospectives.
• Defect tracking and release coordination conducted in Linear.
• QA process governed by the team's qa-start skill and release automation
