We respect opinions and love discussions that help converge a divergent set of views in the best interests of our customers. We do the right thing - always!

  • Values spending time with other engineers, guiding them in their journey towards becoming well-rounded engineers including, at times, understanding personal motivations and challenges and helping them overcome mental barriers to become fearless coders who take pride in their work.


Technology Skills:

  • While our stack is primarily Java, Angular, and MySQL with a spattering of .Net, the ideal candidate is a polyglot for whom programming language is not a barrier.
  • While our QAA stack is primarily JavaScript, Typescript, and MYSQL, unit tests in Java or other languages should not be a barrier to, at minimum, understanding and code reviews.
  • Experience in creating API automated and manual tests and test cases.
  • Experience in creating UI automated and manual tests and test cases.
  • Experience in creating performance tests and test cases is a plus.

  • Puts a premium on repeatable tests to ensure quality.
  • Questions status quo and strives for continuous improvements.
  • Uses a combination of technology, process, and people skills to help teams solve problems.
  • Security is never an afterthought; you consider non-functional requirements at every step.
  • Works with the leads and teams to figure out an optimal test plan, considering the design, implementation, and what was covered in unit and integration tests then figure out the test plan.
  • Collaborate across teams to document and keep the test plans up to date as changes happen.
  • Identify gaps in test plans by reviewing product functionality, and defects being discovered and collaborating with the team to improve quality either by modifying unit/integration tests or by adding manual/automated functional tests.
