Honesty: Whether reviewing another developer’s code, participating in retrospectives, or working with your team on project direction, we expect openness and honesty. Honesty creates trust, and we believe all great teams are built on trust.

Low Ego: Have confidence in your skills and experience but be willing to alter your opinions when a better one comes along. Strong opinions, loosely held.

Instinctive Troubleshooting: Rapid diagnosis and resolution of bugs or problems is essential to a productive team. We expect our Quality Advocates to bring significant experiential knowledge to bear quickly.

Deep Curiosity: You’ll be expected to research new technologies, perfect the use of existing ones, and discover tools — including AI-powered tools — that can drive change across the organization.

Automation Mindset: You view manual testing as a starting point, not a destination. You’re always thinking about how to encode knowledge into repeatable, automated tests that add lasting value to the team.

Motivation: You’re a natural self-starter who enjoys solving problems. You can jump in with minimal instruction and figure out what should be done.
