#LI-Remote
Although we list out what we generally look for, we are very likely missing other attributes and skills that you have that could make you a great fit, and are not currently listed. Research has shown this especially applies to women and other marginalized groups, who tend to apply if they check 100% of every box, versus men who apply if they hit roughly 60%. The point we’re getting at, it doesn’t hurt to take a chance and apply!
We are an inclusive employer and value diversity at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
What We Do
Web development has advanced in leaps and bounds in the last decade, but front-end testing has not. Testing sucks. It’s the part that every developer dreads.
It’s often harder to write a passing test than an actual feature.
We want to spend our time building cool things, and we need tools that match how we build modern applications.
Therefore we built a revolutionary new testing tool from the ground up. We have created a product that we love and actually use ourselves.
Our team is highly experienced and passionate about solving problems. We’re lucky enough to have some of the best minds in the industry.
Being open source, Cypress is evolving faster and better than if we worked on it alone.
Now developers can ship their software faster and more consistently, with confidence.
We believe testing needs a lot of love, and we are here to foster a tool, a service, and a community that can teach and benefit everyone.
