About The Role

We're looking for someone who is passionate about building high-quality software and driving the productivity of an entire organization. You will join a team dedicated to building out the tools, infrastructure, and training, that will sustain WeWork’s incredible growth as a technology company. Your efforts will enable engineers across the company to develop software faster and with higher confidence by making the right thing to do the easy thing to do, with awesome test tools and valuable insights into the code health.

About The Team

The Test Infrastructure team believes high-quality tests are the secret sauce that powers an organization's technology growth. It is the foundation of continuous delivery, it drives good software design, and it serves as always-up-to-date documentation of the software. High quality and pervasive tests make ordinarily terrifying changes mundane and ensure that developers can spend most of their time on what they do best. Driving that change across an organization is as much about evangelizing culture as it is about evangelizing tools. We are  charged with driving that change. We are a deeply technical team and we work with Engineers and Engineers in Test daily, to help them achieve the next level of software maturity.

  • Contribute enhancements and valuable tools we make back to the open source community
  • Form a holistic understanding of the needs of our engineering community and what we can do that will have the most impact on their productivity

Requirements:

  • 5-7+ years of experience
  • Experience or interest in writing production­ quality code in Go/JavaScript/TypeScript/Ruby
  • Experience working in Agile teams, working in sprints, and documenting work clearly
  • Ability to dive deep when talking about software design and best practices

  • Experience with microservices and container tools such as Docker, Kubernetes, Helm
  • Strong foundation in algorithms and data structures and their real-world use cases
