Senior QA Engineer
Unwrap
Quality assurance lead job in Santa Barbara, CA
QA Engineer - Unwrap.ai
Do you love to ensure quality at scale? Are you one of the most detail-oriented and strategic people you know? If so, you'll be right at home at Unwrap.
We are seeking a Senior QA Engineer who will lead quality assurance efforts across the entire tech stack-frontend, backend, and data pipelines. Our tech stack is built in TypeScript, our backend is a GraphQL/Node-based service, and our frontend runs on React. You'll be responsible for architecting and implementing testing strategies across all layers of this architecture.
You'll own the quality strategy for major customer-facing components end-to-end. This includes understanding customer needs, defining comprehensive test strategies and acceptance criteria, establishing QA best practices, mentoring team members on testing approaches, and ensuring core product features ship with the highest level of confidence. You'll get exposure to all aspects of the company, from sales to marketing to customer success, but you'd focus primarily on building robust quality processes and ensuring the reliability of user-facing tools.
This role is based in Sunny Santa Barbara. Our office is in downtown Santa Barbara, walking distance to great food and the beach.
Who We Are
Unwrap.ai is on a mission to fill the world with products people love. We're helping companies like Lyft, Stripe, Oura, Microsoft, Perplexity, and Github collect and process feedback more effectively. We ingest feedback from thousands of sources (support channels, surveys, social), and use state-of-the-art NLP technology to extract actionable insights for customers across software, hardware, and retail sectors.
We're currently a team of 20, and growing quickly. We are venture-backed, and just raised our $12M Series A from world-leading VCs. Our founders, two ex-Amazon Alexa Product Managers, were tired of manually sifting through customer reviews, support tickets, and bugs while working on Alexa. They understood the importance of listening to customers and prioritizing their requests effectively, but simply had too much feedback to parse through. So, Unwrap.ai was born to solve this problem. Specifically, at Unwrap we use Natural Language Processing to automatically cluster, tag, and analyze customer feedback to help product and engineering teams build what customers want. The ultimate goal is to better connect users and builders, so builders can fill the world with products people love. Our small team is extremely motivated, hard-working, and simply gets stuff done. If this sounds exciting, we can't wait to read your application.
Role Qualifications
