Role Summary

​

Renew Home is looking for a Senior Software Engineer in Test and Automation to join our team, and play a key role in establishing robust automation testing frameworks and culture within our organization.

​

You will design and maintain the pipelines, quality gates, and automated checks that let our teams ship confidently and frequently across a 50+ service Nx monorepo. Beyond pipelines, you will build and expand automation frameworks that interact with thermostats, EVs and batteries, define testing standards, and embed a quality-first culture across a mission-driven engineering organization.

​

What You Will Do

​

• Own and evolve our CI/CD pipelines — designing quality gates, test stages, deployment checks, and failure alerting across GitHub Actions workflows in a large Nx monorepo.
• Define and enforce pipeline standards: what runs on every PR, what gates a merge, what gates a deploy, and how test results are surfaced to engineers.
• Design and implement scalable test automation frameworks for integration and end-to-end testing of distributed systems spanning Python/FastAPI backends, React/Remix frontends, PostgreSQL, and event-driven infrastructure on AWS and GCP.
• Expand automated test coverage across the test pyramid — with particular focus on integration and E2E layers that are hardest to maintain at speed.
• Partner with software engineers to instrument their services with automated tests and wire those tests into CI.
• Analyze flaky tests, slow pipelines, and production incidents to drive continuous improvement in test coverage, pipeline reliability, and release confidence.
• Develop and maintain test plans, quality metrics, and documentation that keep teams aligned on coverage expectations.
• Advocate for automated testing and continuous quality improvement across the organization.
• Participate in on-call rotations and ensure strong operational standards.
