About the Team

Our mission is to change the way business deals get done. In an industry plagued by inefficient and ineffective contract management systems, we provide a solution that accelerates, scales, and protects the business, enabling contract professionals to become their company’s superhero.
We create innovative AI technology that makes contracts searchable and simplifies deal-making processes to supercharge business while helping to reduce costs and handle risk. We automate manual work, facilitate collaboration, and streamline operations so businesses can make better decisions.
By reimagining legal documents, we take the stress out of contract management, empowering brilliant people to do their best work while fueling exponential growth.

About the Role

We are looking for a passionate and innovative SDET to join our dynamic QE team and help drive the success of our cutting-edge product, which is poised to transform how organizations manage and process legal data. Our automation is built in TypeScript. While experience with TypeScript is a big plus, what matters most is strong programming ability. If you can own the full testing lifecycle, write sophisticated test code independently, and demonstrate a true quality engineering mindset, we want to hear from you.

What You’ll Do:

  • Collaborate closely with our agile, cross-functional engineering team to build a robust, enterprise-grade SaaS contract management platform.

  • Drive the quality assurance process by implementing comprehensive automated functional, regression and performance testing, ensuring our platform consistently meets the highest quality standards.

  • Enhance platform scalability by implementing effective performance and load testing strategies.

  • Partner with software developers and product managers to define features and establish criteria for verifying correct implementation, fostering a quality-first mindset throughout the development cycle.

  • Leverage your expertise in test automation to design, develop, and maintain efficient test automation frameworks that support continuous delivery and integration.

  • Actively mentor P2 and P3 SDETs, conducting high-level code reviews and fostering a culture of technical excellence.

About You

Basic Qualifications:

  • 8+ years of experience in quality engineering with a strong focus on test automation.

  • Proficiency in modern automation tools and technologies; experience with Playwright is a significant plus

  • Deep experience in Java, JavaScript, TypeScript or Python and a strong grasp of software design patterns

  • Proven track record of building and maintaining test automation frameworks that enhance testing efficiency

  • Solid understanding of testing REST APIs, with a knack for identifying potential issues before they impact users

  • Experience with CI/CD practices and tools (e.g., GitHub Actions), promoting seamless integration and deployment

Other Qualifications:

  • Experience leading code reviews for other SDETs and setting the "coding standards" for the entire team.

  • Strong experience with Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) practices and leveraging the Cucumber framework

  • Experience with Git or other distributed version control systems, contributing to a collaborative team environment

  • Exceptional attention to detail in testing user interfaces and backend services, with a commitment to delivering top-quality products.

  • Knowledge of SQL and various database systems, enhancing your ability to validate data integrity and application performance.

Our Approach to Flexible Work
 

With Flex Work, we’re combining the best of both worlds: in-person time and remote. Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work. We know that flexibility can take shape in many ways, so rather than a number of required days in-office each week, we simply spend at least half (50%) of our time each quarter in the office or in the field with our customers, prospects, and partners (depending on role). This means you'll have the freedom to create a flexible schedule that caters to your business, team, and personal needs, while being intentional to make the most of time spent together. Those in our remote "home office" roles also have the opportunity to come together in our offices for important moments that matter.

Pursuant to applicable Fair Chance law, Workday will consider for employment qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records.
