Senior Quality Engineer, Test Automation & Release Quality

About LawnStarter

We run an on-demand marketplace pairing homeowners with lawn care and outdoor service pros, processing significant booking volume and backed by leading investors.

About the Role

We're hiring a Senior Quality Engineer to strengthen how LawnStarter ships software across our marketplace platform. This role sits at the intersection of engineering and product, focused on building confidence into every release before it reaches customers.

In this role, you will:

• Own and evolve automated testing coverage across our web and mobile products
• Work directly with engineering pods to bake quality checks into the development process, not bolt them on after
• Lead root-cause investigations when production issues surface, coordinating across teams to close the loop
• Strengthen our CI/CD pipeline's testing infrastructure
• Coach engineers on writing better tests and thinking about edge cases earlier

Required Skills & Experience

• 5+ years of hands-on QA/QE experience, including building and maintaining automated test frameworks (e.g., Selenium, Cypress, Playwright)
• Experience testing both web and mobile applications in production environments
• Solid understanding of CI/CD pipelines and how automated testing fits into them
• Experience working in a marketplace, two-sided platform, or similarly fast-moving startup environment
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to work cross-functionally across engineering, product, and support
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience

Benefits

• Competitive salary
• Flexible PTO
• Remote-first culture with a distributed team
• Opportunity to shape quality practices at a fast-growing marketplace company
