Third IronThird Iron | Senior Quality Engineer | REMOTE (US)
Do you want to help scientists, doctors, and historians discover breakthroughs? Join our small, fully-distributed software development team to help connect scholars of all disciplines with peer-reviewed journal articles.
Our company has been remote-first since we began in 2011. You’ll join a team with plenty of experience putting into practice what works well remotely, and avoiding what doesn’t.
We've never taken VC money, and we’ve never had layoffs.
Third Iron software is used by researchers at over 2,000 organizations, including universities, hospitals, corporations, and government agencies, located in over 35 countries.
In a refreshing change from advertising-dependent tech companies and those who sell user data, we instead have a straightforward business-to-business model. We sell our subscription-based services to libraries, and anyone affiliated with one of these libraries can use our software. We do not sell user data. Our focus is on building the best software to enable research that changes the world.
### Senior Quality Engineer ###
We’re looking for a Senior Quality Engineer who wants to help us define and continually refine the quality aspects of our software lifecycle, create automated tests, and monitor our quality metrics to ensure we're providing researchers and librarians with a great experience.
Ideally you have many years of quality experience in an agile environment, either as a Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET), Release Engineer, or Quality Assurance (QA) role involving web technologies. We care more about the quality of your work than the numbers of years
Playwright and/or Cypress experience is a big positive. We primarily create web apps, and we also have a popular browser extension, along with all the backend APIs and systems that support our many customer use cases.
Interest in working with our top-notch customer support team, release management, accessibility testing, or load testing are all nice extras, too.
