In this senior UI-focused SDET role, you will take strong ownership of test automation for TypeScript-based frontend applications, while also contributing to API integration and end-to-end testing using Python and pytest. This role is well suited for someone who wants to make UI test automation their primary area of expertise while also working regularly in the API testing area. In practice, we expect the work to be roughly two-thirds UI test automation and one-third API testing.

The primary stack for this role includes:

TypeScript, Playwright, React-based applications, Python APIs, Pytest, Spinnaker (CI/CD).

The broader engineering environment also includes Node.js, GraphQL, Java, Go, GCP, and Kubernetes.

Prior AdTech experience is helpful, but not required.

Within the team, you will have the opportunity to work closely with other SDETs focusing on different domains, as well as be part of the QA Guild focused on making impactful changes to our tools and processes.
