    Job description

    SDET – Software Development Engineer in Test

    KNOWiNK — St. Louis, Missouri (An On-site Role)

    At KNOWiNK, we build technology that powers elections across the country. That means quality isn't just a nice to have — it's everything. We're looking for an SDET who lives at the intersection of engineering and testing, someone who thinks in code, cares deeply about coverage, and wants to build automation that actually makes a difference. If you're the kind of person who gets excited about finding a bug before it ships, you're going to fit right in here.

    What you'll be doing

    • Design, build, and maintain automated test frameworks and test suites across web, mobile, and API layers
    • Write clean, reusable test code that integrates smoothly into our CI/CD pipelines
    • Collaborate with developers and product early in the cycle to identify testability gaps and build quality in from the start
    • Perform manual and exploratory testing when automation isn't the right tool for the job
    • Own defect documentation and tracking from discovery through resolution
    • Contribute to code reviews on test automation with an eye for maintainability and coverage
    • Support performance and regression testing efforts across releases and hotfixes
    • Help maintain and improve QA documentation, standards, and processes as we grow

    What we're looking for

    2-4 years of SDET or test engineering experience
    Solid programming skills in Python, JavaScript, Java, or similar
    Hands-on experience with automation frameworks like Selenium, Cypress, or Playwright
    Experience integrating tests into CI/CD pipelines
    API testing experience with tools like Postman or REST Assured
    Comfortable working in Agile/Scrum environments
    Strong analytical thinking and sharp eye for edge cases
    Clear communicator who collaborates well across engineering and product

    Nice to have

    • Experience with performance testing tools like JMeter, K6, or LoadRunner
    • Mobile testing experience on iOS and/or Android
    • Familiarity with security testing practices
    • Exposure to cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, or GCP
    • Experience with Docker or containerized test environments
    • Background in elections tech, civic tech, or similarly high-stakes software

    What success looks like

    First 90 days

    You understand our product, our stack, and our testing gaps, and you're already writing automation that matters

    First 6 months

    Your test coverage contributions are measurably reducing regression time and catching bugs earlier in the cycle

    First year

    You're a core part of how quality gets built into our product, not just validated at the end

    Sound like you? We'd love to hear from you.
