Senior Software Engineer, Testing Services

As a Software Engineer in the Testing Services team  at Chime you'll work with a motivated team to help define quality and the metrics by which we will track it. You'll work to instill the processes and procedures we'll need to live up to that standard. You'll lead  our development teams on the creation of their test plans, showing the way yourself if you need to. You'll act as a Quality Product Manager, creating and refining a backlog of test automation and product instrumentation stories to ensure the dev teams spend their time coding rather than running manual tests. You'll roll your sleeves up when necessary (or when you want to - we all got into this business because we love coding and all things technical) to do a spot of implementation yourself.

The perfect candidate will have experience with at least one full web technology stack, an eye for bugs and design flaws, and a white/gray box testing mindset. If you love coding, testing, and desire the opportunity to create an amazing testing platform this challenge might be for you.

The base salary offered for this role and level of experience will begin at $157,590 and up to $218,900. Full-time employees are also eligible for a bonus, competitive equity package, and benefits. The actual base salary offered may be higher, depending on your location, skills, qualifications, and experience.
