Cin7 is expanding very quickly with a mission to become the leading Inventory Management Software brand in the world, and we are looking for a motivated and driven individual to join the team.

The Senior QA Engineer is responsible for defining and executing the quality strategy within a cross-functional team. This role moves beyond simple execution to serve as a functional lead — determining methods for testing complex systems, designing and integrating modern test automation (including AI-assisted tooling), improving internal policies, and mentoring the team to ensure high-quality software delivery and a superior user experience.

This is a hands-on technical role embedded in an Agile/Scrum environment, working closely with product managers, developers, and DevOps teams across the full SDLC. You will be a quality advocate who drives standards, owns risk, and enables others.

Own end-to-end testing for complex features, from strategy through execution, with minimal oversight

Design and evolve test strategies, frameworks, and methodologies across web, API, and data workflows

Build and maintain scalable automated test frameworks, and integrate them into CI/CD pipelines

Improve quality practices by refining QA processes, tooling, and documentation

Perform and guide manual testing (functional, regression, exploratory) where automation isn’t sufficient

Lead risk assessment and quality decision-making throughout the development lifecycle

Execute performance, load, and basic security testing to ensure system reliability

Leverage AI tools to accelerate test creation, execution, and coverage

Collaborate closely with product, engineering, and design in planning and release readiness

Mentor and support team members, raising overall quality standards and capability

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field

5–7 years of QA experience, with growth into test strategy and process improvement

Experience in SaaS environments, ideally with complex, data-heavy systems (e.g. inventory, ERP, fintech)

Strong automation experience (Selenium, Cypress, Playwright) and CI/CD integration

Solid understanding of API testing, microservices, and distributed systems

Experience working in Agile/Scrum or DevOps environments

Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP)

Deep knowledge of testing practices across manual and automated approaches

Strong exploratory and risk-based testing skills for complex applications

A proactive quality mindset, influencing design decisions and reducing technical debt
