Sr. Quality Engineer, Marine

About the role

Storable is seeking a Senior Quality Engineer to help ensure the quality, reliability, and usability of our Marine software platform. This role combines hands-on quality engineering, test automation, API and data validation, and thoughtful use of AI-assisted tools to improve speed, coverage, and engineering outcomes. You will partner closely with product managers, software engineers, architects, and other quality engineers to deliver reliable, customer-focused software. You will help clarify requirements, identify risks, design test strategies, build and maintain automation, validate APIs and data, investigate defects, and improve the way our teams measure and deliver quality. This is a hands-on role for someone who can combine thoughtful test strategy with practical execution.

Key facts

What you'll do

Work in an Agile SDLC to deliver incremental customer and business value while advancing product quality within a scrum team.

Partner with Product Owners, Software Engineers, Architects, and other QA engineers to clarify requirements, identify ambiguity, and shape testable user stories.

Own and influence test strategy across manual testing, automated testing, API validation, database validation, exploratory testing, regression coverage, and release readiness.

Use AI-assisted tools where they improve test planning, automation, debugging, defect analysis, documentation, or technical discovery.

Design and maintain automated tests using frameworks such as Cypress, Selenium, TestNG, Cucumber/Gherkin, or similar tools.

Build and maintain API automation that validates service behavior, integration points, data contracts, permissions, and business-critical workflows.

Use SQL to query, validate, and troubleshoot application data.

Work with CI/CD tools and deployment pipelines, including GitHub or GitLab, to validate builds, test execution, environments, release quality, and pipeline failures.

Troubleshoot internal bugs, failed automated tests, customer-reported issues, data inconsistencies, and environment problems with speed and care.

Identify gaps in testability, observability, automation coverage, requirements clarity, and team process, then help close those gaps.

Advocate for quality early in the SDLC instead of treating testing as a final checkpoint.

Collaborate with product, design, support, engineering, and business stakeholders to translate customer needs into validated, reliable product outcomes.

Mentor junior engineers on mature QA practices, test automation craftsmanship, and risk-based testing.

Participate actively in stand-ups, retrospectives, backlog refinement, test strategy discussions, and technical design reviews.

Continuously evaluate tools, technologies, and workflows that can improve engineering productivity and product quality.

Requirements

5+ years of hands-on experience in software quality engineering, test automation, or a similar role in a relevant industry.

Experience testing web applications, including complex user workflows, forms, validations, and dynamic content.

Strong proficiency with at least one modern test automation framework for UI or API testing, such as Cypress, Playwright, Selenium, or RestAssured.

Solid understanding of REST APIs, HTTP protocols, JSON, and common authentication and authorization mechanisms.

Comfortable writing and running SQL queries against relational databases to validate data and troubleshoot issues.

Experience working in Agile/Scrum development processes, including active participation in ceremonies and collaboration with cross-functional teams.

Strong written and verbal communication skills to clearly articulate issues, risks, and test results to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Ability to work independently and make thoughtful tradeoffs while managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.

A bias for action and ownership, with attention to detail and a commitment to quality across the product and process.

Nice to have

Experience with marine, boating, dock, or facility management software is a plus.

Familiarity with domain models for reservations, inventory, memberships, point of sale, payments, waivers, or regulatory compliance in waterfront businesses.

Experience contributing to open source projects or publishing reusable test libraries and patterns.
