What you’ll do

We are looking for a Software Quality Assurance Engineer to join the Stripe Terminal Device Software Quality Assurance team. In this role, you will own the quality assurance process and results for firmware and device operating system components across our payment terminal devices. You'll work closely with software development teams to define quality standards, develop test strategies, and drive software quality improvements through technical expertise and process enhancements.

Responsibilities

• Own software quality for Terminal device software components, including firmware and the device operating system, and ensure software quality targets are met for customers. Collaborate with developers during software planning, change review, and release meetings to understand new features, specifications, expected behaviors, and the impact and risks of changes. Create spot tests before branch cut.

• Deeply understand customer use cases, Product Requirements Documents, and Software Design Documents. Work with developers to create test plans that improve coverage across configurations, user scenarios, and reliability testing.

• Perform Bluetooth validation across multiple devices, edge cases, and recovery scenarios. Validate devices with enterprise network configurations and security types.

• Design and execute testing for power performance, battery behavior, sleep and wake reliability, and resilience under extended or degraded operating conditions.

• Design, build, and maintain lab setups and test environments that reflect production-like usage conditions and support repeatable validation.

• Co-lead software quality incident remediation with engineering teams, including root cause analysis and solution development. Establish and maintain software quality assurance processes, and influence cross-functional teams at Stripe and drive quality and process improvements.

• Create and optimize test cases. Collaborate with automation engineers to expand automated test coverage, guide manual software quality assurance team members in high-quality software testing, and mentor junior software quality engineers on technical skills, test design, work quality, and efficiency.
