About Plotly

Plotly builds the tools millions of developers use to work with data. Our open-source libraries are downloaded millions of times per day, Dash is one of the most popular ways to build data applications in Python, and we are building AI features up and down the stack.

Dash Enterprise is our commercial platform: it lets organizations deploy, scale, secure, and govern those applications inside their own Kubernetes clusters, on-prem or in their private cloud.

About the role

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Senior Software Developer in Test (SDET) to join our dynamic team. As a Senior SDET, you will play a critical role in ensuring the quality and reliability of our products through the design, development, and execution of comprehensive testing strategies.

In addition to traditional SDET responsibilities, you will work directly on bug fixes and feature development to improve product quality. You will lead initiatives to enhance the overall software development process with a focus on quality. You will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams including developers, product managers, and customer support.

The technologies you will be working with include:

- Cypress/Playwright
- JavaScript/TypeScript
- Python
- Go
- Github Actions
- Kubernetes for infrastructure orchestration
- Cloud Providers: AWS, Azure, GCP (consumer and enterprise-level solutions)

What you’ll do

- Work directly on features and bug fixes alongside other engineers on the team to improve product quality.
- Serve as a knowledgeable resource for testing automation, providing training and technical guidance to team members as needed.
- Design, develop,



and maintain automated test scripts and test suites.
- Create detailed, comprehensive, and well-structured test plans, and test cases.
- Test current products to identify, isolate, and track defects.
- Perform manual tests, when necessary, to maintain a balanced approach alongside automated testing.
- Ensure products meet business and technical requirements, customer expectations as well as performance and reliability standards.
- Contribute to the strategic planning of Plotly's overall product testing strategy.
- Actively participate in code reviews, design discussions, and project planning meetings.
- Use your creativity, curiosity, and resourcefulness to increase the quality at Plotly.
- Block software releases if they don’t meet your standards (don’t worry, we’ll have your back)
- Help cultivate an environment of exceptional software quality. Educate and help others understand why they’ll soon love product quality as much as you do.
