About the Role
At Fetch, we are passionate about solving challenging problems and embracing ambiguity. Our engineering philosophy promotes adaptability and innovation over rigid adherence to rules. As an SDET, you will contribute to shaping our test automation strategies, collaborating across teams, and ensuring our software meets the highest quality standards.
Our QA team is a critical driver in our engineering efforts, with 36 professionals tackling a diverse range of test automation needs: mobile end-to-end testing on Appium with Ruby, backend testing in Python using Pytest, performance testing with Locust and K6, mobile analytics leveraging a custom framework in Go, and web UI testing using Playwright.
