We're looking for an Engineering Project and QA Manager who works alongside our engineers day to day. You'll keep projects organized and moving, make sure what we build gets tested and bugs get fixed, and keep the engineers, the product team, and the internal teams who use our tools in sync.

Requirements
- 4+ years in a project management, delivery, or QA role, ideally on a small engineering team
- Technical enough to work closely with engineers: you can reproduce a bug, read a stack trace, and write a test case to automate fixing it
- Hands-on QA experience: you've owned testing and a bug pipeline, manual or automated
- Comfort using AI tools to automate work you used to do by hand
- Good judgment about process: you add structure when it helps and leave it out when it doesn't
- Strong written and verbal communication, and you work well with people
- Comfort with ambiguity and small-team dynamics. You've worked without heavy process and know how to keep things moving without it
- Passion for education and desire to make a positive impact
- Familiarity with Ruby on Rails or Django codebases, the stacks we run
- Experience with Capybara, RSpec, or comparable testing tools
- Experience working with product managers and non-technical stakeholders
- Experience as the first project manager or QA hire on a team
