Staff Software Engineer in Test

Responsibilities

• Assess validation practices, identify gaps, and establish scalable quality strategies for code-generation, transpilation, and software-transformation workflows.
• Build automated quality and regression infrastructure for AI-assisted software workflows that produces reproducible engineering evidence.
• Standardize quality signals and release evidence, including regression trends, failure attribution, validation results, and readiness criteria.
• Diagnose failures across C/C++, Rust, Python, build systems, generated code, and heterogeneous target environments, making focused corrections and partnering on deeper fixes.
• Integrate validation suites and quality gates into delivery workflows in collaboration with CI/CD and developer infrastructure teams.
• Lead quality practices, establish technical standards, mentor engineers, and shape the Quality Engineering roadmap, operating model, and cross-team interfaces.

Requirements

• Significant experience in systems software, compiler or language tooling, developer tools, embedded software, or low-level execution environments.
• Production-grade programming proficiency in Python and C++, with the ability to read and debug unfamiliar C and Rust code.
• Experience designing and scaling automated test frameworks, distributed execution systems, or evaluation pipelines for complex systems software.
• Strong understanding of memory models, concurrency, runtime performance, and architecture-dependent behavior across CPU, GPU, embedded, or constrained targets.
• Hands-on experience with Linux, containerized environments, continuous integration platforms, and modern build systems.
• Ability to translate ambiguous quality risks into measurable validation plans, explain tradeoffs, and lead technical work across team boundaries.
• Experience validating AI-assisted or nondeterministic software systems, including reproducibility, independent test evidence, deterministic controls, and human oversight.
• Preferred experience with complex or high-consequence software, agentic systems, compilers, language tooling, intermediate representations, ABI compatibility, cross-language semantic validation, formal verification, or regulated and safety-critical domains.
• Typically 8+ years of relevant software engineering, test infrastructure, or quality engineering experience with demonstrated Staff-level scope and impact; equivalent depth of experience is valued over a rigid year count.

Benefits

• Health care plan with 100% premium coverage, including medical, dental, and vision.
• 401k with 5% matching.
• Paid time off including uncapped vacation, sick leave, and public holidays.
• Flexible hybrid or remote work arrangement.
• Relocation assistance for qualifying employees.
• Pay depends on experience, with the company aiming toward the upper end of the salary range.
• US citizenship may be required for certain project assignments involving security clearance.
