  • Solid understanding of microservices, cloud platforms (GCP preferred), containers, and CI/CD systems such as Buildkite or Jenkins

What the job really is

In this role, you will focus primarily on mobile test automation for Suki's AI voice solutions, developing and evolving the end-to-end mobile test strategy for iOS and Android. You will also extend automation coverage to web surfaces, design API automation, and contribute to backend performance testing. Additionally, you will mentor early-career engineers, integrate testing suites into CI/CD pipelines, and lead initiatives involving AI in the testing lifecycle.

Things to weigh
  • No salary listed
  • Focus on mobile testing may limit exposure to other areas of software development
  • Expectations for mentoring early-career engineers may require additional time and effort
  • The role involves a significant amount of responsibility in driving test strategy and quality assurance processes
