• We think of ourselves as the team behind the team, supporting the lifelong
• impact sports can have: the lessons in teamwork and dedication; the influence of
• inspiring coaches; and the opportunities to reach new heights. That’s why we
• help teams from all over the world see their game differently. Our products make
• it easier for coaches and athletes at any level to capture video, analyze data,

• Ready to join us?
• We're seeking an experienced, automation-focused Senior Quality Assurance
• Engineer to join our North American Sports product team. This team develops
• insightful analytics and Recruit products for American Football, helping
• high-level coaches and analysts make faster, data-driven decisions on player
• performance and talent acquisition.
• As the testing expert within your cross-functional squad, you'll own quality
• end-to-end — building the strategies and automation that ensure we're shipping
• software our users love. You'll drive quality discussions, challenge the team to
• maintain high standards, and be the advocate for reliability and performance at
• every stage of delivery.
• Lead quality initiatives. Build risk-based testing strategies tailored to
• your squad's architecture, drive quality discussions in scrum ceremonies,
• challenge defect priorities, and continuously look for ways to improve
• practices and keep your squad's quality processes ahead of the curve.
• Test across the stack. Design and execute tests spanning front-end UI, APIs,
• backend services, and data pipelines — validating transformations, service
• outputs, and complex logic at scale.
• Automate with intent. Make informed decisions about what, when, and how to
• automate. Use Playwright and scripting to build reliable, maintainable
• automated checks that keep pace with development.
• Mentor and grow others. Use your technical depth and quality instincts to
• coach teammates, raise the bar for quality standards across the team, and
• influence how the whole squad thinks about quality.
• Collaborate cross-functionally. Partner closely with Engineering, Product,
• and Design, contribute to hiring, and invest in your own professional
• development.

Required

• Quality focus. You see the big picture and use it to drive improvements in
• both quality and velocity.
• Technical depth. 4+ years of software testing experience with hands-on
• expertise across the full stack — API testing, backend and data-heavy
• systems, and front-end validation — plus proficiency in automation frameworks
• like Playwright and languages like Python or TypeScript.
• A track record of leadership. You've owned quality for a squad, led testing
• initiatives end-to-end, defined success criteria, and designed approaches
• that measurably reduce risk in production.
• Investigative rigour. You dig to root causes of complex problems, back your
• findings with data, and measure outcomes.
• User focus. You think critically about the user experience and let that
• understanding shape your testing approach.
• AI-powered working. You actively use AI tools in your day-to-day workflow —
• for test case creation, failure diagnosis, documentation, and beyond — and
• look for new ways to apply them to raise the team's efficiency.

Preferred

• Performance testing exposure. Familiarity with load, stress, and scalability
• testing concepts and tools (e.g. JMeter) for validating API and backend
• performance.
• Sports knowledge. Passion for or experience in Basketball, American Football
• or Ice Hockey — whether as an athlete, coach, or fan — and an appreciation
• for the unique challenges of sports technology.
• A relevant degree or equivalent experience. A bachelor's degree in a related
• field or equivalent practical experience.
• Champion work-life harmony. We'll give you the flexibility you need in your
• work life (e.g., flexible vacation time, company-wide holidays and more) so
• you can enjoy your personal life too. Plus, every five years, we give you a
• paid sabbatical to unplug and recharge.
• Guarantee autonomy. We have an open, honest culture and we trust our people
• from day one. Your team will support you, but you'll own your work and have
• the agency to try new ideas.
• Encourage career growth. We're lifelong learners who encourage professional
• development. We'll give you tons of resources and opportunities to keep
• growing.
• Provide an environment to help you succeed. We're always investing in our
• offices, designing incredible spaces with our employees in mind. But whether
• you're at the office or working remotely, we'll provide you the tech stack
• and hardware to do your best work.
• Take care of your mental and physical health. Medical plans tailored for you
• and your family—including vision, dental, and fertility benefits—and stay
• supported with our EAP and Employee Resource Groups.
• Contribute to your 401(K). Yep, that's free money. We'll match up to 4% of
• your own contribution.

• The base salary range for this role is displayed below—starting salaries will
• typically fall near the middle of this range.
• We make compensation decisions based on an individual's experience, skills and
• education in line with our internal pay equity practices.
