As a Software Development Test Engineer (SDET) you will work as part of the development team to ensure that software meets or exceeds quality, performance, and reliability standards. You will build software that, in turn, works to break the production code for the purpose of improving quality. The team's vision is to drive the quality upstream and test to ensure high quality code in the final product at launch. You must meet the same technical bar as SDEs with less emphasis on design and more emphasis on testing aptitude and expertise, and a passion for quality. You will spend 50% or more of your time building software in the form of automation and testing tools, and the remaining portions of time with building test plans, use cases, and testing product in general.
Duties & Responsibilities:
* Participate in product requirement and design reviews
* Research and implement new, improved testing methods, processes, procedures, tools, and systems for repeatability and reliability
* Develop and implement test plans
* Develop and implement automated tests for functionality, load and performance testing

* Experience in a software development environment
* Experience with the Software Development Life Cycle
* Strong diagnostic, analysis, troubleshooting, problem-solving skills
* Excellent interpersonal, verbal and written communication skills
