SDE-T , Ring/Blink CS Technology Enablement
The Ring Blink Customer Service (RBCS) team's application complexity has grown significantly, now serving thousands of external users 24/7 across multiple integrated platforms. We're rapidly deploying AI across voice, chat, and self-service channels, but our AI capabilities ship faster than we can validate them manually, creating a critical gap in our quality assurance process. The current testing team is overwhelmed with manual testing efforts, causing delays in release cycles and increasing the risk of production issues. Key challenges include managing multiple parallel releases, ensuring comprehensive integration testing across four major systems, maintaining high availability requirements (99.9% uptime), and meeting strict security compliance standards. We are seeking a Software Development Engineer in Test to establish and own the automated quality layer using AccelQ and other Amazon internal test automation tools, enabling us to ship AI features with confidence instead of slowing down to manually test every model change. This role will implement robust automation frameworks, conduct thorough integration testing, and ensure quality across all platforms. Without this crucial hire, we risk increased production incidents, delayed AI feature releases, customer dissatisfaction, team burnout, and technical debt accumulation. This role will be instrumental in supporting our business objectives of maintaining high system reliability, ensuring secure transactions, and enabling faster time to delivery of new AI-powered features.
