Quality Assurance Engineer II, AWS Supply Chain
Amazon
Full-time
On-site
Austin, Texas, United States
$102,600 - $185,000 USD yearly
As part of the AWS Solutions organization, we have a vision to provide business applications, leveraging Amazon’s unique experience and expertise, that are used by millions of companies worldwide to manage day-to-day operations. We will accomplish this by accelerating our customers’ businesses through delivery of intuitive and differentiated technology solutions that solve enduring business challenges. We blend vision with curiosity and Amazon’s real-world experience to build opinionated, turnkey solutions. Where customers prefer to buy over build, we become their trusted partner with solutions that are no-brainers to buy and easy to use.
It’s truly Day 1 for our team in AWS. This is your opportunity to be a member of a team that’s building a suite of AWS Apps and Services to tackle a huge new problem space. You’ll be an integral part of testing to test the app build by services services that leverage cutting edge AWS technologies like SageMaker, Forecast, Athena, QuickSight, Glue, Bedrock, ML and more. As an QA member of the team, you’ll wear many hats. You’ll help design the overall test strategy, test plan, contribute to the product vision, and establish the technology processes and practices that will lay the groundwork for the organization as it grows.
An ideal candidate is an experienced Software QA Engineer with a development and/or QA background who can direct the activities of a growing team. The successful candidate should be able to apply QA process, practice and principles to software development and release processes, should apply their experience with a variety of software QA tools to accomplish these processes, as well as to describe requirements for new scripts, tools and automation needed by their team. Responsibilities include defining test strategy and test plans, reviewing them with stakeholders, improving test coverage, reviewing and filling gaps in existing automation, representing the customer, understanding how the customers use the system and including the most relevant end-to-end user scenarios in test plans and automation.
Key job responsibilities
BS in Computer Science or equivalent combination of technical education and work experience.
3+ years of proven experience as QAE, SDET, or SDE
3+ years experience with driving quality across an organization as a holistic plan and not just test execution
3+ years experience with QA methodologies and software testing techniques and tools.
About the team
AWhy AWS
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform.
