• Monitor CI/CD pipelines, investigate failures, and communicate issues to the engineering team
• Represent the SDET team in squad meetings and share quality status, risks, and metrics
• Work from our office in Boston (2+ days/week in office if local) or remotely from the United States on Eastern or Central hours)

What You Bring
