QA Engineer

About Atticus

At any given time, 16 million Americans are experiencing a crisis that requires urgent help from our legal system or government. The right assistance could transform their lives. But today, most never get it.

Atticus makes it easy for any sick or injured person in crisis to get the life-changing aid they deserve. In just five years, we’ve become the leading platform connecting people with disabilities to government benefits. We also help victims of accidents, misconduct, and violence get compensation from insurance. So far, we’ve gotten thousands of people access to over $2B in life-changing aid (see our 14,000+ five-star reviews), and we’re just getting started.

We’ve raised more than $50 million from top VC firms like Forerunner, GV (Google Ventures), and True Ventures. We're small but moving fast — our team grew from 89 to 151 last year and we expect to grow again in 2025.

The Job

Atticus works in an industry dominated by outdated technology that is ripe for fresh thinking: our core competitors rely on massive call centers to screen clients, antiquated CRMs to track and manage cases, and paper checks to get paid (provided they’re sent to the right address). 

As a VC-backed tech company our product & engineering department powers everything we do: from creating an engaging online experience for people in crisis to providing tools for our network lawyers as they serve our clients, Atticus relies on technology to fulfill our mission.

We’re looking for a QA Engineer to join our team. You’ll work on testing services and web applications, and will partner with every department at Atticus as we continue to grow our platform that helps people in need find trusted legal support.  

What You'll Do:

• Contribute to Atticus’ testing strategy with a focus on performance, modularity, extensibility, and reliability.

• Create and validate detailed test plans in a collaborative environment with software engineers.

• Work with Product to evaluate and refine product details and acceptance criteria.

• Collaborate with the lead SDET to inspire developers and other stakeholders to create excellent products and services.

• Execute regression and functional testing across all aspects of our product

• Identify, track, triage, prioritize and document issues through to resolution

The role is a rare opportunity to join a fast-growing Series B startup that doubles as a B-corp social enterprise. Every project you take on will help clients in need get the help they deserve, and you’ll shape our company culture as we scale. We’re looking for testers who are excited about our mission and the challenges it entails.

Qualifications

Required:

• You've got 1-3 years of relevant experience as a QA engineer or similar role.

• You enjoy working with UI and UX experts to test compelling user experiences.

• You enjoy teaching and mentoring teammates on testing best practices.

• You’ve tested both services and web platforms extensively.

• You have experience using Postman for API testing and validation.

• You've embedded with a team to document test cases in close collaboration with product, engineering, and design.

• You've got a track record of creating or improving a QA process to measurably increase product quality.

Bonus / Nice-to-Have:

• Experience with Google Cloud Platform, Kubernetes, Docker, Git, GitLab, Git, Golang, TypeScript

• Experience with Playwright or similar testing frameworks such as Selenium/Cypress

• You have experience working with a team outside of QA that relies on QA's work (CX, Ops, Engineering, Product, Design)

We are strongly committed to building a diverse team. If you’re from a background that’s underrepresented in tech, we’d love to meet you.

Salary and Benefits

This is a rare opportunity to join a startup that has strong traction (substantial funding, well-respected backers, tremendous growth, and many happy customers) but is still small enough that you can have a huge impact and play a role in shaping our culture.

We’re a certified B Corporation tackling a critical social problem. Our mission to help people in need drives everything we do, and your work here will touch many lives.

We offer competitive pay — including equity — and generous benefits:

• Medical and dental insurance with 100% of employee premiums covered

• 15 vacation days & ~19 paid holidays each year (including two weeks at end-of-year)
