About the Job
As a Software Developer in Test (SDET) II, you will empower Sovrn's Data Delivery team to solve complex challenges for our data customers by championing testability, code health, infrastructure, performance, and monitoring. You'll own the quality of Sovrn's data infrastructure, and ensure it by working in the current architecture and implementing test automation, tooling, deployment, and measurement frameworks. You'll learn complex systems and leave no stone unturned. Mostly, you'll be someone that gets it done, no matter what, and that's something you'll take pride in.

About You
You are very driven for success and are constantly asking what does this do. You are extremely detail oriented and learn from your mistakes. You hate siloing and frequently find yourself at someone else's desk asking questions or helping find solutions to a complex problem. You also have the thought process of, “If I have to do this more than once I’m going to automate it!”.
The successful candidate will have:
- Able to develop tests and testing infrastructure for a system that is intact and written in an object-oriented programming language - Java, Scala and Go Lang.
- Enthusiasm for developing tooling and tests that proactively address ambiguous and non-deterministic problems.
