Hudl Senior Quality Assurance Engineer at Hudl focusing on quality for the Core Video & Data platform. Lead quality strategy, testing at scale, and coach teams to improve product quality and delivery velocity.
Responsibilities
We’re hiring a Senior Quality Assurance Engineer to join our Core Video & Data team, where quality work supports the platform athletes and coaches rely on to train, compete and improve. You’ll work at the intersection of video, data and AI, and you’ll have a real voice in how we define “done.”
As a Senior QA Engineer, you’ll:
Lead quality in your squad: As an integral part of a cross-functional team across Engineering, Product, Design, and Scrum, you will guide quality-focused conversations in sprint ceremonies. You will partner with stakeholders to explain how defects affect users and advocate for the right priority on backlog defects before they enter a sprint.
Shape our quality strategy: You will use your customer and system understanding to build a risk-based testing approach tailored to our video and data platform architecture. You will measure quality to help define when a project is truly complete and validate your improvements with real, data-backed results.
Test at scale and automate: Aligning our processes with development speed, you will make informed decisions on what, how, and when to automate versus when to rely on manual testing. You will lead large testing efforts, bringing your knowledge of our users into every test plan.
Own it from day one: Your squad will count on you to set the quality bar for the work you’re part of, not simply to maintain someone else’s checklist. You will drive measurable improvements in both product quality and delivery velocity.
Coach and elevate the team: You will use your technical and quality expertise to guide others and raise the team's overall bar. As the quality point person, you will influence and challenge teams to incorporate best practices in everything they do.

Technical Expertise: You have at least four years of full-stack testing experience alongside an in-depth knowledge of automation tooling and frameworks.
A quality leader. You’ve led quality initiatives and projects, and you know what success looks like at the project level.
A skilled investigator. You dig into the root cause of problems, back your findings with data and measure the results.
Analytical Investigation: You are a skilled investigator who digs into the root causes of problems, backs findings with data, and measures the results.

Sports knowledge. Passion for or experience in sports — whether as an athlete, coach, or fan — and an appreciation for the unique challenges of sports technology.
Champion work-life harmony. We’ll give you the flexibility you need in your work life (e.g., flexible vacation time, company-wide holidays and more) so you can enjoy your personal life too. Plus, every five years, we give you a paid sabbatical to unplug and recharge.
Guarantee autonomy. We have an open, honest culture and we trust our people from day one. Your team will support you, but you’ll own your work and have the agency to try new ideas.
Encourage career growth. We’re lifelong learners who encourage professional development. We’ll give you tons of resources and opportunities to keep growing.
