What You’Ll Do

NetDocuments is seeking a Senior Software Test Engineer to help shape the future of our next-generation, AI-powered document management platform. In this role, you’ll take ownership of the quality strategy and test architecture for our cloud-native, event-driven systems. You’ll design and implement reliable automation across UI, API, and data pipelines, while raising the bar on performance, security, and reliability for mission-critical solutions trusted by customers worldwide. Partnering closely with product, design, and engineering leaders, you’ll drive a shift-left approach to quality, improve testability across services, and ensure our AI-driven workflows deliver trustworthy outcomes.  

This is a high-impact opportunity to influence how quality is done at scale—whether by advancing data-driven testing practices, mentoring others in modern techniques, or building scalable automation that makes a real difference. If you’re passionate about engineering excellence and want to leave your mark on an industry-leading platform, we’d love to hear from you. 

You Will:

• Own the quality strategy for key initiatives across frontend, backend, and data pipelines; define test approaches, quality gates, and release criteria for distributed, event-driven systems.  
• Design and build robust automation ( TypeScript and C#) for UI (Playwright), API/contract (REST/GraphQL, Pact), and event streams (Kafka-centric validation and consumer tests).  
• Implement CI/CD quality gates: parallelized test suites, flaky-test detection, test impact analysis, and fast feedback loops using pipelines and containerized runners.  
• Expand non-functional coverage: performance/load (k6/JMeter/Gatling), resiliency/chaos scenarios, reliability SLOs, accessibility (WCAG), and basic security/OWASP checks.  
• Build test data and environments: deterministic data sets, mocks and service virtualization (e.g., WireMock), and cloud-native ephemeral environments (AWS, IaC) to increase speed and repeatability.  
• Partner across disciplines to design for testability, drive defect prevention, and deliver seamless customer experiences.  
• Integrate and validate AI-driven services: establish evaluation datasets, bias/guardrail checks, and offline/online metrics to ensure safe and consistent behavior.  
• Level up the team: mentor engineers on testing best practices, code reviews, debugging, and observability-driven testing.  
• Operational excellence: instrument tests and systems for telemetry; analyze failures, reduce flakiness, and continuously optimize execution time and coverage.  
• Document quality architecture with diagrams, flows, and clear test plans (Miro or similar) to align teams on approach and outcomes.  
• Collaborate with Principal/Distinguished Engineers to design highly testable, resilient solutions and evolve our quality platform.  
• Contribute to mobile testing where applicable (device farms, cross-platform validation).  
• Pitch in as needed to support team and organizational goals. 

What You’ll Need to be Successful 

• Proven experience: 7+ years in software quality/test engineering (or equivalent software engineering with testing focus) delivering automation and quality outcomes for production systems at scale.  
• Leadership background: 2+ years leading test strategy or quality initiatives, mentoring peers, and establishing engineering standards.  
• Automation expertise: Advanced skills in at least one OOP language and modern JavaScript/TypeScript; hands-on with Playwright or Cypress (UI), REST/GraphQL testing (Postman/Newman, REST Assured, Pact), and test design patterns.  
• Event-driven & backend testing: Experience validating service-oriented and event-based architectures (e.g., Kafka), including consumer-driven contracts, idempotency, ordering, and replay scenarios; API and data-pipeline validation.  
• Cloud proficiency: Practical experience with AWS services, containers (Docker), CI/CD (e.g., GitHub Actions/Jenkins/CircleCI), and familiarity with IaC concepts (Terraform/CloudFormation) for ephemeral test environments.  
• Performance & reliability: Comfort with performance profiling, load testing, resiliency/chaos techniques, and observability (logs, metrics, traces) to drive root-cause analysis.  
• Quality practices: Strong grasp of the test pyramid, risk-based testing, TDD/BDD, test data management, and measuring quality via meaningful KPIs (e.g., escape rate, flake rate, MTTR).  
• Collaboration: Excellent cross-functional communication; able to influence design for testability and drive consensus on quality standards.  
• Documentation: Ability to express test strategies and architectures with clear diagrams/flows and articulate trade-offs.  
• Adaptability: Comfortable in fast-paced environments, balancing innovation with operational feasibility.  
• Nice to have: Mobile testing experience; security testing exposure (OWASP); accessibility tooling; basic ML/AI evaluation techniques.
