Senior QA Automation Architect

About the role

We work with everything audio at Roku - Audio Quality Assurance (AQA), AV-sync testing, and wireless audio validation. Our team is a collection of Software Engineers and Electrical Technicians who love making solutions on how to test things. If there isn't a solution to a testing problem, we make it - both hardware and software. One of the things we're known for is our huge system setups for testing audio across TVs, soundbars, and headphones.

You'll partner closely with the team lead to architect and advance our automation ecosystem, with a strong emphasis on AI-driven innovation through our internal initiatives. This role is best suited for a self-motivated, detail-oriented person who thrives in fast-paced environments. You should be comfortable working through ambiguity and adaptable enough to navigate evolving priorities while consistently delivering high-quality results.
