Department summary:

Technology at OnDeck is a mix of building cutting edge systems to provide a world-class user experience to our customers and partners, aggregate mountains of data to make real-time lending decisions, and of course move lots of money every day. We have an emphasis on scalability, reliability and accuracy.

As a QA Automation Engineer, you’ll work closely with developers to code, test, and deploy quality features for our customers and internal users. Our QA team is embedded with Agile development teams, supporting them through test automation and manual testing. We put a heavy emphasis in the QA team on test automation – everything from web automation (using Selenium) to REST API automation to data persistence & validity (in SQL, MongoDB, and Salesforce) to model testing. You’ll be knee-deep in our end-to-end test automation framework – designing new infrastructure, coding new test cases, and running tests in support of new releases.

In this role you will:

• Implement end-to-end test automation in a test automation framework written in Python.
• Design and develop new features to support new products and existing needs.
• Be an advocate for software quality and test automation in technology and with our business partners.
• Evaluate and test software programs to verify our web and back-end applications function according to user requirements; perform regression testing
• Interact with the user communities of our software to monitor and investigate defects and communicate further software improvement needs to our software developers and engineers
• Perform quality assurance throughout the entire software development lifecycle, as well as for managing iterations to ensure they stay on track
• Work with a talented and friendly group of software developers, product managers and quality assurance engineers

Qualifications for success:

• You are passionate about improving software quality, find inspiration in ground breaking technology, and enjoy working in a start-up environment.
• You are excited about learning our systems, asking a lot of questions, as well as exploring technical issues on your own to devise tests.
• You have 3 – 5 years in a Quality Assurance role, preferably in an enterprise-focused or start-up environment, as well as recent experience with test automation experience.
• You are able to demonstrate technical skills in your current position including:
• Programming (Python a plus!)
• Relational database queries (Postgres a plus!)
• Linux and shell scripting
• You can demonstrate experience building and maintaining an end-to-end test automation suite. We’re looking for people with experience automating front (e.g. Selenium) and back end (e.g. data validity, REST APIs, jobs) systems and behavior-driven development frameworks (e.g. Cucumber or Robot Framework).

What we offer you:

• Medical, dental, vision, and life benefits from day one.
• Paid/flexible sick-leave, vacations, and holidays so you can take off the time that you need when you need.
• Up to four months paid parental leave for all new parents. Adoption assistance with reimbursement of up to $5K. We want you to have time to bond with your new bundle of joy.
• Order lunch on us from Seamless. You can order what you want, when you want and from where you want.
• We’ll match your 401(k) contributions and offer a discount through our Employee Stock Purchase Plan. All to complement your personal financial strategy.
• We want to help advance your career. Take classes relevant to your job and the first $5K is on us.
• Enjoy our annual company summer party, holiday party and department quarterly outings.
• Semi-annual Hackathons to give our teams a fun way to innovate together and come up with awesome ideas.
• Our partnership with SoFi gives you access to student loan refinancing, personal loans and even mortgages. 
• We work hard, we play hard. Build or join an OnDeck intramural club, group, and/or sports team and be part of our OnDeck Community.
• Fully stocked kitchens with free snacks & drinks.
