Staff/Principal Software Developer In Test

We are Ataccama, and we are on a mission to empower organizations to maximize the transformative potential of data and AI. Our product enables both technical and less technical ‘data people’ across their organizations to create high-quality, governed, safe, and reusable data products. It’s what made us a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant® for Data Quality Solutions™, and what inspired Bain Capital Tech Opportunities to invest in our future growth.

Our vision is to be the leading AI-powered cloud data management company and to do that, we’re making Ataccama a great place to work and grow. Our people are located across the globe. They succeed by collaborating as a team and thrive in our company culture defined by these core values:

Aim High

Customer Focused

ONE Team

Candid and Caring

Challenging Fun

We are open to a hybrid working setup. #LI-hybrid

Our Current Challenge: Ataccama transitioning from an on-premise enterprise solution to a fully managed multi-cloud platform. We cater to Fortune 500 companies with stringent security and compliance requirements. There is a natural tension between forces Move forward quickly, Break nothing, Ensure high quality standards and Stay compliant. We believe there is way of delivering software often with high quality standards and make customers happy. We don’t believe one size of doing tests fits. We believe even enterprise software can be delivered safely (minimal blast radius, fast rollback) by independent teams in a modern way (mainline development with feature toggles) without fallback to siloed QA departments and co-located releases.

We see the role of Staff/Principal Software Developer In Test as crucial for enabling high quality standards by:

* Leading SaaS Quality Community of Practice. This includes ownership and governance of the Quality Strategy.

* Hands-on engineering contribution to Platform Test Tooling (covering integration tests, component tests, contract tests, e2e tests) for enabling functional teams and more than 100 engineers.

While this is individual contributor role you can expect close co-operation with Platform engineering teams and engineers for delivering quality gates and their integration into CI/CD pipelines.

Your Challenge

• Technical Leadership: Lead development of Platform Test Tooling, solve the most challenging technical problems (breadth vs depth of tests on various levels), and align our SaaS engineering organization so every single Ataccamer undestands how we achieve high quality standards.
• Mentorship: Mentor individuals and teams by sharing your extensive experience with quality in SaaS/cloud environment, best practices, and lessons learned on individual bases or via SaaS Quality Community of Practice.
