Job Description

Senior Quality Engineer
Location: Peachtree Corners, GA (Onsite)
Full-Time

About the Role

We are hiring a Senior Quality Engineer to play a critical role in ensuring the reliability, correctness, and resilience of a modern, cloud-based software platform. This role goes far beyond checking boxes or executing scripts — you’ll be embedded within engineering teams, influencing how systems are designed, built, tested, and released.

You’ll take a systems-level view of quality, working across application layers, data pipelines, and infrastructure to surface risk early and prevent failures before they reach production. This is a role for someone who thrives on ownership, autonomy, and impact.

• Act as a quality owner across services, APIs, data stores, and user-facing experiences.
• Influence architecture and design decisions by identifying risk patterns early in the development lifecycle.
• Partner with engineers to raise reliability standards rather than reacting after defects appear.

Automation & Engineering

• Build and evolve automated testing approaches that scale with the platform.
• Create and maintain test coverage across multiple layers — from service logic to integration paths.
• Use automation strategically to reduce regressions and increase release confidence.

Data & Platform Validation

• Validate data correctness, consistency, and performance within relational databases.
• Investigate edge cases and failure modes that only appear under real-world conditions.
• Verify cloud-based deployments, environment configurations, and system integrations.

Operational Problem Solving

• Investigate complex production issues alongside engineering teams.
• Perform root-cause analysis and contribute to long-term corrective actions.
• Continuously refine quality practices based on real incidents and system behavior.

• 5+ years of experience in a senior or lead-level QA or quality engineering role.
• Strong experience working in cloud-hosted environments.
• Advanced SQL skills with experience validating data integrity and performance.
• Hands-on experience with modern automated testing frameworks (UI and API level).
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and release workflows.
• Deep understanding of Agile delivery and software lifecycle practices.
• Willingness to work fully on-site in Peachtree Corners, GA.

Additional Strengths

• Experience testing large, interconnected systems rather than isolated applications.
• Background in platforms that process high volumes of data or transactions.
• Ability to write small utilities or scripts to support testing and diagnostics.
• Exposure to performance or load testing methodologies.
• Comfort using AI-assisted tools to enhance testing, observability, or automation.
