About YouYou’re an experienced quality engineer who knows how to break stuff — a thoughtful meticulous professional who brings discipline and craftsmanship to the pursuit of making resilient well-tested software. You love working directly with designers and software engineers to develop and share patterns and practices that ensure the products you build and release as a team meet the highest standards. You are also an effective agent of change and an outstanding communicator.
What you will achieve
As a quality champion, you will hold your engineering team(s) accountable for meeting the right release quality bar in the following ways:
Weighing in early in the dev cycle (during the design process), to identify rabbit-holes and potential problems in areas like performance, security, usability, and unintended cascading breakage in adjacent areas — before code is written
Developing test plans, quality-related procedures (like bug bashes, defect triage, etc.), and documentation that support developers as they build new features
Writing automated tests at multiple layers of the pyramid (unit, integration, e2e) with the goal of always shifting defect detection as far left as possible
Coordinating with other teams to communicate how your teams’ work will impact their work — before it is merged
Conducting exploratory testing and root cause analysis as needed, and mentoring others in this skill
Exercising excellent judgement to identify and negotiate quality trade-offs that will inevitably arise in a software development environment that’s highly responsive to customer demand
Working with your fellow engineers to develop first class quality metrics that align with overall quality strategy, with a focus on monitoring and observability
Qualifications
You are a trained and experienced (4+ years) QA engineer, who's worked extensively testing framework and tooling, particularly in the JS/TS, React and Node.js context
You understand what it means to be a quality champion for your team, not just owning quality, but leading a dev team towards quality ownership.
You understand, and have worked in a left shifted environment before.
You are an expert at writing and executing test cases
You love to investigate, triage, document, and communicate complex issues in a clear and concise manner
You have a strong technical background and are a proficient programmer
You have a comprehensive understanding of the current state of web technology and best practices
You are a stickler for great developer experience and have frequently rolled up your sleeves and found solutions that made the whole team better
Nice to haves — experience maintaining CI/CD pipelines that make use of:
Github Actions (or similar) declarative pipelines
Contract testing
Visual regression testing, either homegrown or 3rd party
API endpoint testing
Load and/or performance testing
Log analysis with a tool like: Datadog, Kibana, or Prometheus
Docker, Kubernetes
Most importantly, you are a true Onebriefer:
You are obsessed with creating value for real users
You are ambitious, scrappy, and a creative problem-solver
You learn quickly, work iteratively, and naturally seek collaboration
You approach your work with integrity, intellectual honesty, and a low ego
You communicate frankly, clearly, and succinctly
You thrive as a self-starter, embracing autonomy and ambiguity
Compensation Range: $140K - $190K

What We Do
Before Onebrief, military planning and collaboration was slow, inefficient, and resource-intensive. Building slides with no version control as partners collaborated would have staffs spend weeks or months on a single product or document.
With Onebrief, these workflows are now simple and collaboration between large commands is efficient. Staff optimization is the key to building a more resilient, more effective military. Today Onebrief users report at least 2x time savings - and growing.
Onebrief is a first of its kind software for the military. While many others have tried to build a solution for this problem, Onebrief’s “card” structure for reusing data and enabling real time updates is what makes this possible. Core features and attributes that make this platform powerful include:
- Global Collaboration
- Real-Time Updates
- AI Automation
- Interoperability + Integrations
- Deployable across Secret and Top Secret Networks
Mission Driven
Onebrief is composed of professionals from backgrounds of all kinds - spanning veterans across forces and organizations, and technologists from leading-edge software giants.
Onebrief is more than just a software platform; it's a mission-driven company dedicated to improving the efficiency and effectiveness of military planning. By joining the team, you'll contribute to solutions that directly support national security and the work of service members.
Your work directly addresses critical challenges that military planners and operators face daily. Every line of code and every design decision contributes to real-world outcomes.
The software was designed and built by a team of experienced planners - lending a nuanced perspective on the challenges our partners face. Our team embeds alongside users - from
the Pentagon to the Indo-Pacific - to build a platform that meets their unique needs.
Rapid, Strategic Growth
Our users love the platform and growth is scaling, most recently reporting operational usage growth at a 19,600% annualized rate. Stronger utilization is underway and we’re at an exciting period of advancement.
As a rapidly growing organization, you'll directly influence its direction and long-term success. Over the past year we’ve seen exciting growth metrics:
First, our headcount has grown 150% YoY to keep pace with our product advancement and customer growth.
Our funding has skyrocketed, most recently raising our Series C, led by top-tier venture investors who have deep expertise in defense tech.
Why Work With Us
Impactful Transformation
At Onebrief, we believe optimizing the military staff is the most impactful thing - on a per-dollar basis - in defense tech right now. This has the potential to save the department of defense billions of dollars and save users countless hours. It’s a longstanding problem that we’re uniquely positioned to solve.
