Senior QA and Automation Developer
About the role
Senior QA and Automation Developer at Taiv, an AI-powered tech startup (Winnipeg, Canada / Remote). You will own testing across the entire stack (firmware, detection models, web apps, backend), define testing standards, build automated test suites, and reduce production regressions.
Responsibilities
- Build the test suite. Starting with one product area, you’ll build out a comprehensive automated test suite in your first few months, the template the rest of the org follows.
- Set the testing standard. You’ll define how Taiv tests software, from what gets automated to what “done” means for a feature from a testing standpoint, and get every team bought in.
- Cut down regressions. You own the outcome, not just the process. If bugs are reaching production, that’s your problem to solve.
- Test across the whole stack. From detection models and firmware on the box to our TypeScript and React web apps, you’ll figure out the right testing approach for each and build the automation to match.
- Work directly with engineering leadership. You’ll partner with our CTO, VP of Software, and Firmware lead to make sure the testing plan fits how each team actually builds.
Qualifications
- 5+ years of experience in QA and test automation, with real ownership of a testing suite at a previous company.
- Hands-on experience with Playwright and Maestro, or comparable frameworks.
- Experience testing TypeScript, React, and Android applications.
