Senior Quality Assurance Specialist
Webflow is a visual web development platform that empowers everyone to create incredible experiences for the web — without writing any code.
The Core team is focused on transforming Webflow into foundational building blocks that will enable internal and 3rd party developers to extend and multiply Webflow’s value in a visual-first, scalable and secure way. We’re looking for a Senior QA Specialist to help us build a scalable infrastructure that will support this Platform initiative.
The User Systems team is responsible for building and maintaining the infrastructure and feature set that enables Webflow customers to deliver a first-party user management system. This includes features like account creation, user and role-based content gating, and per-user customized experiences.
About the role
- Location: San Francisco HQ or remote (Western Hemisphere)
- Full-time
- Roles available: 2
As a Senior QA Specialist, you’ll:
- Explore emerging technologies and propose how to apply them to the existing codebase
- Collaborate with a remote team of software engineers, product managers, designers and QA specialists in an autonomous, supportive team environment
- Solve problems in a highly technical platform that empowers hundreds of thousands of people, and serves millions of page views per hour
- Model, create and deploy solutions that make it possible for anyone to create for the web
- Write, review, perform various testing activities around MongoDB, Express, and Flux stores
- Interact with, test, and document our REST and GraphQL APIs using tools such as Postman, Curl, and Insomnia
- Model risk, troubleshoot problems, participate in the conceptual design of systems, and collaborate with our backend, front-end, and full-stack software engineers
That said, these responsibilities are just the start! At Webflow, we encourage you to contribute wherever your interests take you — and shape your role accordingly.
And this isn’t just a philosophical bent: we actually give you 4 hours a week (10% of the workweek) to pursue passion projects outside of your role responsibilities.
About You
You’ll thrive as a Senior QA Specialist if you:
- Treat your teammates with respect and value team success over personal success
- Want to help our customers not only to create without code, but to actually operate a business — you’ll be creating jobs and helping others find a new career, start that dream business, and put food on the table.
- Feel confident using synchronous and asynchronous tools (Slack and GitHub) to enable and contribute to cross-team collaboration
- Enjoy creative problem solving
- Can work independently to accomplish tasks or know when to consult with your teammates
- Believe in radical candor and can receive and deliver effective and polite feedback.
- Understand our customers and can advocate for their needs inside the User Systems team
- Have big ideas and aren't afraid to share them with the team to improve the product, working environment, or software delivery lifecycle.
If you don’t meet 100% of the above qualifications, you should still seriously consider applying. Studies show that you can still be considered for a role if you meet just 50% of the role’s requirements.
