Are you a curious, detail-oriented person who loves shipping polished products? We are seeking a Product Assurance Engineer to work on a multi-disciplinary team to assure that Oxide ships the highest quality product to our customers.
As a Product Assurance Engineer working at Oxide, you will:
Collaborate with varying internal and external stakeholders to assure that we deliver a product that meets our customers' needs and expectations.
Be the first consumer of every product release - kick the tires by exercising common customer use cases, gathering performance metrics, and operating the rack like a customer would.
Contribute to CI/CD and test infrastructure projects to help improve automated test reliability and turnaround time.
Refine quality and release processes with Program Management and Engineering to assure that we continue to deliver a product that improves with every iteration.
Contribute to other areas of the product that interest you–beyond your day-to-day product assurance duties.
These responsibilities are just a starting place! We’re a small company, we don’t have rigid roles, and we have a lot to do – we can help you grow wherever your interests take you.
You will thrive in this role if you:
Have a strong background in DevOps or SRE, and working knowledge of distributed systems and multi-tier application deployment.
Have hands-on experience with software development, CI/CD pipeline, and test automation.
Have previously worked with complex deliverables involving multiple teams.
Drive clear communication within engineering teams and between engineering teams and the rest of the company.
Are energized by the thought of operating between traditional roles and silos.
Value the written word and can concisely communicate in written form.
Get excited about a wide range of technical topics and dig really deeply into them.
If you don’t meet 100% of these qualifications you should still seriously consider applying – at least one of us was missing each of these at the outset!
Before applying for this role, you should:
