Senior Software Engineer, Quality Assurance

Our mission is to bring community and belonging to everyone in the world. Reddit is a community of communities where people can dive into anything through experiences built around their interests, hobbies, and passions. With more than 50 million people visiting 100,000+ communities daily, it is home to the most open and authentic conversations on the internet. From pets to parenting, skincare to stocks, there's a community for everybody on Reddit. For more information, visit redditinc.com.

In case you haven't heard, non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are the newest, most explosive movement in the world of crypto. With the power of blockchain, it is now possible to truly own digital assets on the internet in a way that wasn't possible before. Even though excitement over NFTs is only just beginning, sales have already hit $2.5B this year and it can be a bit difficult to explain why.

For many, it's a way to support their favorite artists, and for others it's a way to curate impressive collections of ultra-rare collectibles. Just as cryptocurrencies are set to revolutionize the world of economics and finance, NFTs are going to rewrite how we think about digital goods.

For Reddit, it will always be about community. As the "frontpage of the Internet", Reddit brings over 430 million people together each month through their common interests, inviting them to share, vote, comment, and create across thousands of communities. If there is one thing we've noticed with NFTs, they too have an incredible power to create a sense of participation and belonging. With every new NFT project, a vibrant community of owners pops up with it. Fans of today's biggest creators and brands are now flocking to buy digital goods directly from them -- to support them, to gain exclusive access, and to feel a greater sense of connection with them. Over time, we believe this will only grow, and NFTs will play a central role in how fans support their favorite creators and communities.

We are hiring a strong QA Engineer to act as an advocate for quality in this rapidly growing and global product. In this role, you will be a champion for quality across functions (eng, product, design) and throughout the entire product lifecycle, and will drive improvements in product quality both preemptive and reactive. The role will involve some manual testing and test planning for upcoming functionality, but the true charter is to eliminate manual toil by proactively investing in rich test automation and more effective processes. If you ask us, the NFT movement has only just begun, so come and join our team to get started.
