🧑💻 We’re hiring Software Engineer – Backend at Test Sprite! (Hybrid in Seattle)

Test Sprite is an AI-powered software testing platform that helps teams plan, generate, run, and debug tests automatically—speeding up releases and improving reliability. We’re building the backbone that lets developers ship with confidence, and we’re looking for a backend-focused engineer to help us scale.

• Location: Hybrid in Seattle (in-person collaboration each week)
• Type: Full-time

• Design, build, and operate backend services and APIs that power AI-driven test generation and execution

• Optimize data flows, queues, and storage for performance and reliability
• Harden security, auth, and multi-tenant controls across our platform
• Collaborate with founders and product to translate customer needs into shippable software
• Raise the bar on code quality through reviews, testing, and documentation

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience (backend-heavy)
• Cloud experience (required) — AWS preferred (e.g., Lambda/ECS, API Gateway, Dynamo
  
  DB/Postgres, S3, Cloud Watch)
• Strong in one or more backend languages (e.g., Python, Type Script/Node, Go) and modern API design (REST/Graph
  
  QL)
• Understands distributed systems, reliability, and observability (tracing, metrics, logging)
• Comfortable with containers, CI/CD, and infrastructure-as-code (Docker, Terraform/CDK, etc.)
• Communicates clearly, ships pragmatically, and enjoys fast iteration with real users

• Background in developer tools, testing frameworks (e.g., Playwright), or security-minded systems design
• Python + Type Script/Node
• Docker, IaC, CI/CD
• Playwright, modern observability tooling
• Meaningful ownership and impact on a product used by engineering teams
• Tight-knit, high-agency culture with fast feedback loops
• Competitive compensation with equity, benefits, and hardware support
• Hybrid rhythm that balances focus time with in-person collaboration
