Empowerment: How You'll Know You're Succeeding
- To improve productivity, with your Agile team you’re able to chart a path towards increasing automation of your team’s development and deployment process while being able to achieve roadmap goals and customer commits.
- You understand and evangelize potential product risks, helping the Agile team maintain a higher level of quality and customer satisfaction.
- You select and integrate test automation frameworks and provide testing guidelines that enable engineers to optimize time spent on testing relative to design and coding tasks.
- You follow Agile practices in your daily and weekly work and are a reliable team member.
- You share your technical expertise with Kyruuvians by presenting at Lunch & Learns, Technical Brown Bags, and internal demos.
- Kyruuvians in the Senior Software Engineer in Test role can move in a more linear career path along two tracks - individual contributor or management. From here you could become a Principal Software Engineer I or a Manager, Engineering. Continued career progression can involve growth along either the Technical track or transitioning to a Management track.
- Kyruus also loves to see an internal transfer. If a linear career path is not what you’re looking for, you can work with your manager and HR to explore lateral moves to other parts of the organization as you continue to grow with us.
