Build software that has to work

NextGen AgTech with In Time Tec builds web and mobile software used to operate feedlots, manage cattle purchasing and transportation, and maintain financial records used by owners and lenders. Our products support yard operations, animal health, billing, financing, logistics, and reporting across web, iOS, and Android.

The testing challenge is consequential: a defect can affect an operator’s books, an animal-health workflow, or a time-sensitive decision in the yard. We are expanding QA capacity while building automation that helps us release faster without accepting greater operational or financial risk.

The mandate

You will own test strategy and automation architecture for a product suite spanning yard operations, cattle purchasing, financial workflows, and dispatch. This is a hands-on senior individual-contributor role: you will write code, make framework decisions, review tests, mentor engineers, and give leadership a clear view of release risk.

Our automation practice is growing rather than finished. You will have meaningful authority over framework and coverage decisions, along with responsibility for ensuring those choices remain maintainable as the product evolves.

What you will own

• End-to-end test strategy: what to automate, what should remain exploratory or manual, and where testing investment reduces the most risk.
• Playwright framework architecture, including fixtures, reusable utilities, parallel execution, tracing, reporting, and maintainability standards.
• UI, API, integration, contract, and data-layer coverage for critical workflows.
• Release-quality gates and risk-based recommendations about whether software is ready to ship.
• CI/CD test health, including lower flake, faster feedback, and actionable failure reporting.
• Root-cause analysis of production incidents and escaped defects, translated into durable regression coverage.
• Standards for AI-assisted test design and automation, including human review and coverage-gap analysis.
• Technical mentoring and testability guidance for QA and development engineers.

What you would test

• Yard operations, including lots, pens, feed delivery, commodities, animal-health records, and treatments.
• Financial workflows, including billing, interest, loans, payments, statements, hedges, and lender-facing reporting.
• Purchasing and logistics, including cattle records, hauling, dispatch, and automated notifications.
• Customer workflows across web, iOS, and Android in English and Spanish.

What success looks like

• In your first 60 days, you assess current coverage, test debt, pipeline health, and the highest-risk operational and financial workflows.
• Within six months, you establish the framework architecture, automation priorities, ownership standards, and initial release-quality gates.
• Within one year, the team has materially better regression signal, more stable automated coverage, and a faster path from code change to trustworthy feedback.

What you bring

• Five or more years of experience in QA or SDET roles, including substantial hands-on test-automation experience.
• A track record of designing or significantly scaling a production test-automation framework, not only writing individual tests.
• Deep, practical Playwright or comparable modern automation experience, including fixtures, parallelization, retries, tracing, and reporting.
• Strong programming or scripting experience in TypeScript, Python, C#, or a comparable language.
• Experience with API, integration, contract, and CI/CD testing.
• Strong SQL skills for test-data setup, financial and operational validation, and investigation across application and database state.
• Risk-based release judgment and the ability to communicate that judgment to technical and nontechnical stakeholders.
• Experience mentoring engineers and improving how a team designs for testability.

Helpful, not required

• Mobile automation for native iOS or Android applications.
• Performance and load testing, accessibility testing, visual regression, or security-testing fundamentals such as the OWASP Top 10.
• Internal quality tooling, dashboards, or production-telemetry feedback loops.
• Experience in agriculture, fintech, logistics, or another operationally sensitive domain.

Technology

Our core testing environment includes Playwright, Postman, GitHub, GitHub Actions, Azure SQL, Docker, and AI-assisted test design and automation.
