About the Role

Join an early-stage AI infrastructure team as its first QA engineer, owning quality and test automation across a GPU fleet management platform. Your work will help ensure that conversational and web interfaces, backend services, and Kubernetes operations behave reliably and safely in production.

What You'll Do

  • Test conversational workflows end to end, including command accuracy and actions performed on live clusters.

  • Build evaluations for AI agent behavior, checking response quality, safe actions, and handling of ambiguous or invalid requests.

  • Create end-to-end tests for the web interface and verify consistent behavior across product interfaces.

  • Write Go integration tests for backend workflows such as installation, upgrades, and failover.

  • Provision and tear down Kubernetes test clusters to validate controllers, operators, and custom resources across versions.

  • Verify alert delivery across product interfaces and chat, and ensure alerts fire appropriately.

  • Gate releases in CI and turn bugs and incidents into regression tests.

What We're Looking For

  • At least 3 years of experience in QA, SDET, or test automation, including ownership of product quality and test suites.

  • Strong Go skills for integration testing or backend test automation, plus experience building end-to-end web UI tests.

  • Hands-on experience with Kubernetes, React, RPC systems such as gRPC, CI/CD, and Linux fundamentals.

  • Familiarity with monitoring and alerting tools such as Prometheus, Alertmanager, or Grafana.

  • Experience testing conversational or LLM-powered products, building agent evaluations, or working with GPU infrastructure is valuable.

  • Exposure to multicluster tooling, chaos engineering, Kubernetes testing tools, and UI automation frameworks is a plus.
