ABOUT CIVILGRID CivilGrid is the trusted civil design platform powering affordable infrastructure renewal and growth. We give utilities, civil engineers, and municipalities a single, collaborative source of truth for what's underground so teams can plan, design, and build faster, smarter, and safer. Our platform consolidates utility records, geotechnical and environmental data, paving moratoriums, and jurisdictional requirements directly from 3,000+ utilities, agencies, and municipalities with full chain-of-custody documentation. Teams at PG&E, Mark Thomas, and dozens of leading engineering firms use CivilGrid to cut research time by up to 88%, reduce project costs, prevent dig-ins, and accelerate delivery on the projects that keep communities running. We're a venture-backed Series A startup tackling a $4.7T US infrastructure market that has been underserved by software for decades. Founded by industry insiders, each with 10+ years in utilities and civil engineering, we move fast, ship work that matters, and stay close to the customers and field teams we build for. WHY THIS ROLE As a small team, we all wear many hats and enjoy tackling new challenges. When it comes to quality, we're seeking an experienced individual who can efficiently identify problems, prevent regressions, and give the whole team confidence to ship fast. As a Software Developer in Test, you will be a foundational team member with the opportunity to own quality across every surface our customers touch and shape the testing culture of CivilGrid. Utilities, engineers, and municipalities rely on our web and mobile apps to plan and design with safe site data. Joining at this stage, you will build the test foundation that helps us scale quickly, and benefit from tremendous upside as we grow. This role reports to the Senior SDET. It is a hybrid role with expectations that you are working from our Boston, MA office at least 2 days per week if hired. We are only considering candidates in the greater Boston area at this time.   WHAT YOU'LL DO - Own quality of the CivilGrid web app and the iOS and Android mobile apps, validate new features, catch regressions, and verify fixes before release - Exercise core workflows end to end: the collaborative project map, CAD/GIS exports, geotagged photos and field forms - Design, build, and maintain automated regression and end-to-end test suites, and integrate them into CI so the team ships with confidence - Write clear, repeatable test cases from product requirements and designs, and perform exploratory and structured manual testing to cover edge cases - Write detailed, reproducible bug reports and partner with engineers to drive them to resolution - Partner closely with product, design, and engineering to build quality in early and continuously raise the bar for reliability WHAT YOU'LL BRING - 4+ years in QA or software testing, covering both web and mobile (iOS and Android) applications - A sharp eye for detail and a genuine instinct for how software breaks as you think in edge cases and reproduce issues others miss - Proven ability to write clear test cases, and bug reports engineers can act on immediately - Proficiency in JavaScript/TypeScript for writing and maintaining test code - Start Up Ready: autonomous, moves fast, takes initiative without being asked - Strong communication and collaboration skills as you work naturally with product, design, and engineering and advocate for the user - Hands-on experience building automated end-to-end and regression suites with modern frameworks (e.g., Playwright, Cypress, Appium) BONUS POINTS - Experience integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines - Experience with mapping, GIS, CAD, field data collection, or the utilities, civil engineering, or construction industries HOW WE WORK We're a small, but rapidly growing team that ships.
