Job Overview
Tennis Channel is building a high-quality Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) streaming platform across mobile, hybrid, and living room devices. As the SDET you will own and elevate our test automation infrastructure, embedding intelligence and AI support into our QA workflows. You will architect and build automation frameworks, integrate AI/ML tools for test generation or validation, and ensure high-quality releases across iOS, Android, hybrid (React Native), and backend systems. Location
Onsite, Seattle, WA. Key Responsibilities
Lead design, implementation, and maintenance of test automation frameworks, tools, and infrastructure across platforms (mobile, hybrid, backend, APIs). Build tools, scripts, or capabilities using AI / ML-assisted test generation, test case optimization, or anomaly detection to improve coverage and reduce manual effort. Create and own test suites: unit, integration, UI, end-to-end, regression, performance, load, and stress tests. Integrate test automation into CI/CD pipelines, gate builds, and automate release validations. Collaborate with mobile, hybrid, and backend engineers to define testing strategies, API contracts, failure modes, and observability for testability. Instrument test environments, monitor test health, coverage, flakiness, and reliability metrics. Design test data management, mocking, virtualization, and service simulation setups for cross-system testing. Continuously improve test architecture, reduce test execution times, and scale for parallel / distributed test runs. Troubleshoot production / pre-production issues that surface via automated test failures; investigate root causes, define fixes, and improve resilience. Stay up-to-date on AI / ML tooling (e.g. GPT-based test generation, self-healing tests, anomaly detection) and propose adoption strategies. Basic Qualifications
Bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, or equivalent experience. 5+ years of software engineering or QA/automation experience, with strong emphasis on test automation. Proficiency in at least one programming language (e.g. Java, Kotlin, Swift, Python, JavaScript/TypeScript). Experience building and maintaining test frameworks (e.g. XCTest / XCTest UI, Espresso, Detox, Appium, Playwright, Selenium, Robot Framework, etc.). Familiarity with CI/CD, test runners, parallel / distributed execution (e.g. Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Bitrise, CircleCI). Deep understanding of API testing, contract testing, mocking / stubbing, and test data strategies. Experience with performance/load testing tools (e.g. JMeter, Gatling, K6, Locust) and monitoring test metrics. Strong debugging and instrumentation skills. Understanding of software engineering best practices: modular architecture, maintainability, observability, and reliability. Preferred Qualifications
Experience applying AI / ML in testing, e.g. test-case generation, self-healing scripts, anomaly detection. Experience with mobile / hybrid / TV / living room test stacks (iOS, Android, React Native, tvOS). Experience in media / streaming apps, where video, DRM, adaptive bitrate streaming, and edge conditions matter. Experience with performance / load testing on streaming pipelines. Familiarity with infrastructure as code, containerization, and cloud test environments. Knowledge of monitoring, logging, tracing, and how to incorporate them into test validation. Experience optimizing test execution time, flakiness, and parallel scaling. Passion for quality, automation, and developer productivity. Compensation
Base salary $120,000 to $155,000. Final compensation will be determined by various factors such as a candidate's relevant experience, skills, certifications, and geographic location. Full-time positions are eligible for benefits that include participation in a retirement plan, life and disability insurance, health, dental and vision plans, flexible spending accounts, sick leave, vacation time, personal time, parental leave and employee stock purchase plan. EEO Statement
Tennis Channel is proud to be equal opportunity employer and a drug free workplace. Employment practices will not be influenced or affected by virtue of an applicant's or employee's race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, gender identity, and sexual orientation), national origin, age, disability, genetic information, military or veteran status or any other characteristic protected by law.
