Bug Squisher Wanted: You’re an expert at making sure websites, storefronts, and backend systems work smoothly before they go live. But you don’t just catch bugs. You build the systems that catch bugs before anyone else ever sees them. You can spot flaky tests from a mile away. Your test architecture is clean, scalable, and easy for other developers to follow. And when it comes to troubleshooting, you’re relentless — in the best possible way.
AlgaeCal is on the lookout for a Lead QA Developer to bring their skills to our lively QA team and help transform lives, one stable release at a time. We want you to have eCommerce experience. You’ll be helping us improve the quality, stability, and reliability of our React-based storefront and internal middleware.
This job will give you ALL the feels: At AlgaeCal, we’re driven by a single idea. To end the fear of bone loss. In the United States, an estimated 54 million people have low bone density. The good news? AlgaeCal has the world’s only clinically-backed natural solution to this problem. We give hope to everyone worried about bone loss.
You’ll love it here:
- You’ll be working with a great team. The developers at AlgaeCal have been there, done that, and got the t-shirt. They’re friendly, funny, and easy to work with.
- You’ll use your powers for good. You’ll help build the quality engineering systems that let us ship better storefront experiences, stronger middleware, and more reliable eCommerce platforms.
- You won’t be micromanaged. We’ll give you a clear set of KPIs, meaningful ownership, and crystal clear expectations.
This job might be for you if you’ve got…
- 5+ years of QA development experience, with real examples of automated testing strategies you’ve built, maintained, improved, or scaled.
- 2+ years of leadership, mentorship, or coaching experience.
- A strong command of JavaScript and TypeScript.
- Hands-on experience with automated testing frameworks like Cypress, Playwright, or similar tools.
- The know-how to architect, optimize, and scale automated testing frameworks across frontend storefronts and backend middleware.
- Experience integrating automated tests into cloud-based CI/CD pipelines.
- A sharp eye for quality metrics.
- Comfort with specialized QA spaces like API contract testing, performance profiling, load testing, and browser developer tool profiling.
- Next level bug prevention skills.
Other Qualities You’ll Need: You’re humble — you put the team and others’ needs ahead of your own. You’re hungry to learn more. You’re people smart — in the sense that you’re a great teammate.
What Will You Earn? We believe in rewarding top talent. Let’s talk about salary once we’ve had the chance to get to know you better. Rest assured, we’re generous and offer above-market pay for the right person.
You’ll also enjoy the following benefits:
- A generous healthcare package
- Monthly team events and activities

And above all, you’ll join a team that you’ll never want to leave. Culture is everything to us.
