TL;DR · AI Quality & Test Automation Engineer

As an AI Quality & Test Automation Engineer on the Apps Services team, you will design and build intelligent, automated systems to validate infrastructure changes, detect anomalies, and improve the quality of AI-powered features. You will develop full-stack tooling and internal applications aimed at reducing critical outages and accelerating engineering workflows while translating operational pain points into scalable automation solutions. Your daily work involves integrating observability and logging tools within Kubernetes environments to monitor system health and flag regressions early. To achieve these goals, you will utilize scripting languages such as Python, Ruby, or Swift to automate repetitive processes and accelerate validation pipelines. The role focuses on the technical challenge of proactively hunting edge cases and establishing foundational patterns for AI-assisted quality engineering across the organization's internal infrastructure and development lifecycle.

What you'll do

  • Design and implement AI-driven test automation systems to identify edge cases and validate infrastructure changes.
  • Build and maintain full-stack tooling and internal applications to improve development and delivery efficiency.
  • Integrate observability and logging solutions within Kubernetes environments to monitor system health and flag regressions.
  • Translate operational pain points from cross-functional teams into automated workflows and test strategies.
  • Use scripting languages like Python, Ruby, or Swift to automate repetitive processes and validation pipelines.
  • Distill complex stakeholder requirements into actionable engineering solutions and technical specifications.
  • Establish best practices and foundational patterns for AI-assisted quality engineering across the organization.

What we're looking for

  • Minimum of 6 years of experience in software development or QA across full-stack, frontend, backend, or integrated roles.
  • At least 2 years of hands-on experience using AI tools in engineering workflows to automate tasks and build systems.
  • Proficiency in scripting languages such as Python, Ruby, or Swift for system automation or web development.
  • Demonstrated ability to work with observability and logging tooling in Kubernetes-based environments.
  • Strong cross-team communication skills to collaborate with partner engineering organizations and translate requirements into solutions.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • Preferred experience in Swift application development for native or server-side tools.
  • Familiarity with CI/CD pipeline architecture and building internal developer tooling at scale.
