QA Automation Engineer at Chegg, Santa Clara, CA. (full-time)

Ever faced hiring bias because you're a woman or from a minority group or have a non-traditional educational background?

Now, you'll be judged for your real talent and not your background.

Chegg invites engineers with unconventional backgrounds for the role of a QA engineer on their team.

What you’ll do on our team:

-You’ll be creating automated tests for our highly scalable and fault tolerant Java based systems. We deal with financial transactions, so mistakes are literally costly.

-We highly value test driven development. We’re not a TDD team… yet. You will participate in improving our team to reach TDD nirvana.

-Understand the business problems being solved and understand how to evaluate our software that solves those problems.

-Create tests that maximize the value to our business (reduce risk the most for the least investment in effort).

-Clearly communicate actionable insight to those that can resolve the problems you identify.

I’m reaching out to check if you’d be interested in a role that requires you to architect JS frameworks from the ground up at our fast growing edtech startup, Versal.

You’ll be reporting to the CTO and also lead a small team of engineers in this role.

Do you think you’re up for it? or do you know anyone in your network who maybe more suited to the role?

I’m going to be honest with you that this is an experienced engineering lead type of role with significant knowledge and experience working with Javascript frameworks and front end web development.

If you have some of your previous JS development work to showcase, please do share it in your email application to [email protected]

The next step in the process would be a technical challenge with our CTO at Versal. Would you like to give it a shot?

Drop me a line at [email protected] and to arrange for an interview.
