Role
Who you are
- Experience writing automated tests from acceptance criteria
- Knowledge and experience working with Selenium
- Experience with testing UIs, APIs, and Databases
- Coding experience in languages such as Python, Javascript, Java, or Groovy
- Experience with ticketing and continuous integration, ideally JIRA and Jenkins
- Enthusiastic about using test automation to drive product quality
- Must be a problem solver who loves learning new things
- 2+ years of software testing experience in an automated environment
Desirable
- Experience with SQL databases and RESTful APIs

- Exposure to large-scale testing frameworks like Nose, Pytest, Junit, and Jasmine
What the job involves
- Vestwell is looking to hire a talented QA Automation/Software Development Engineer in Test to join our growing tech team
- You are first and foremost a problem solver who focuses on improving the quality of software that we deliver. Coding plays a crucial role in your problem-solving tool box, whether that be writing automated test cases for specific features, or enhancing and expanding our regression testing frameworks
- As part of our agile software development team, you will be working closely with our Director of Test Engineering and our Product Managers team to define acceptance criteria and implement new test scenarios
- There is plenty of room for growth as you enhance a modern codebase and help with additional QA-centric DevOps responsibilities. Our QA infrastructure is built on Docker and Jenkins so familiarity with these technologies will go a long way
Application process
- It starts the same for every candidate: getting to know the team members through 1-2 conversations about Vestwell, your experience, and your interests. Next steps can vary by role, but the usual next steps are a skill or experience screen (e.g. a coding interview for an Engineer, a portfolio review for a Designer, deeper experience call for other roles) which leads to a virtual or in-person interview panel after that if the screens go well
- Before making an offer, our interview process concludes with a references check stage for your recruiter to meet with a current or former supervisor and peer. We prioritize transparency and lack of surprise throughout the process
