• Design, build, and maintain our test automation
• Use AI tools (e.g. Claude Code) to accelerate test creation, failure triage, and debugging, and push the capabilities of the team's AI-assisted workflows

• Complete other responsibilities as assigned

Minimum Skills or Experience Requirements:

• B.S. in Engineering, Computer Science, or related field, or equivalent experience

• A track record of learning new technologies, domains, and languages, and growing in scope over your career
• Experience building tools or systems from scratch where none existed
• Experience testing data pipelines, analytics, or systems whose expected results change over time
