What a Software Quality Engineer Does at Agrigistics

========================================================


You'll define what quality means at Agrigistics. As our first dedicated Software Quality Engineer, you'll shape the systems, practices, and culture that keep our high-stakes payroll and financial platform rock-solid.

You'll

blend strong engineering with modern AI tools

: designing and owning a complete automated testing strategy--starting with a robust end-to-end (E2E) suite--and using AI to accelerate test creation, generate realistic data, and spot edge cases before they reach production. You'll

embed quality from the start

: joining sprint planning and design reviews, combining human insight with AI-driven analysis to identify risks early, challenge assumptions, and ensure features truly solve the user's problem without hidden pitfalls. You'll

raise the bar for releases

: refining our CI/CD pipelines with automated quality gates (including AI-assisted checks) so we can ship faster and safer. You'll

stay close to the product

: running exploratory and acceptance testing, uncovering issues scripts can't catch, and working side-by-side with developers to fix them.

Who We Are Looking For

==========================


We're after a meticulous, product-focused engineer who thrives at the intersection of

quality engineering and smart automation

. You might call yourself a

Pragmatic Skeptic

or a

Constructive Perfectionist

--curious, systematic, and relentless about protecting the user.



You'll thrive here if you have:

Proven technical testing expertise

: 3+ years in a software quality role, with strong JavaScript/TypeScript skills and experience building E2E frameworks (Cypress, Playwright, etc.), plus API testing know-how and performance/security testing awareness.

A track record of AI-assisted testing

: You've actively integrated AI into your workflow--generating test cases, crafting data, simulating edge scenarios, or diagnosing issues faster.

CI/CD innovation

: Experience improving pipelines (GitLab CI, GitHub Actions) and setting up automated, AI-enhanced quality gates.

A true product mindset

: You look beyond "does it work?" to "does it work for the user, in the real world, without risk?"

Ownership in ambiguity

: You build what's missing, adapt processes to fit the moment, and thrive in a fast-moving startup environment.

Join us to set the standard for software quality in an industry that can't afford mistakes--and help us build a platform our clients trust with their most critical operations.
