All of the GaragePlug product modules have critical workflows, and the new developers need to be more confident and fearless about making changes in the system. This will help to deliver products faster to the customers while building more robust products.
We have developed an in-house framework for manually testing the features/product before the launch. This has helped us to catch more than 1000 bugs before releasing the feature in production.
Think of this as the backbone that will help engineers from the product team to automate critical workflows and coordinate bug bashes for all the product teams. Your understanding of functional testing, writing maintainable tests, written and verbal communication skills will be put to the test.
# WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING

- Participate in interviewing and hiring, as a way to influence team growth and how our values inform our culture.
- Collaborate with engineering, product, sales and customer success leadership to define priorities and set delivery goals.
# **WHAT AN IDEAL CANDIDATE WOULD LOOK LIKE**
- We use Spring-boot microservices for backend and Angular 2+/Ionic 3+ for frontend. We prefer someone with experience in selenium, but it is not necessary. You must have experience of working with testing frameworks like selenium, tools, or SaaS products for functional testing like [cypress.io](https://cypress.io/).
- Dedicated to testing. While testing can sometimes get repetitive and monotonous, it is critical to our engineering efforts.
- 2-4 years of experience with automated functional testing.
- Pays great attention to detail and helps identify edge cases.

- **Blackbox Testing:** Be prepared to answer some simulation-based questions during our interviews. From writing the requirements for a test case to planning & executing test plans on the GaragePlug platform, watch out for some hard-hitting questions.
- **Culture Round:** Understand if your values and beliefs fit in with your company’s culture. Be yourself. This is for both sides to evaluate if we're a cultural fit for each other.
- **Founder Round:** Discussion with both the founders of the company. This round helps us evaluate how we both can mutually benefit each other.
# **WHY JOIN US**
- **Freedom & Responsibility:** If you are a person who wants to take up challenging work & push your boundaries with no one monitoring you, then this is the right place for you. There are no hierarchies. No managers to please.
