Test Automation QA Engineer--TripIt

TripIt offers the fun, casual atmosphere of a start-up with large company benefits in a hip, San Francisco location. We are venture backed and are moving quickly to tackle the largest e-commerce category on the Internet -- travel. If you are a high impact person who wants to have real influence on the future of the company and the travel industry, we want to talk to you.

Want to create an application like no other?

Our team of highly experienced and super creative engineers has built an application unlike any that have come before it in the online travel space.

You will report directly to the co-founder and VP of Engineering and work alongside TripIt's superb staff of intelligent and motivated engineers.

You must have a strong understanding of software development and testing process, have the capability of maintaining and expanding both our automated test suite as well as our manual testing efforts, and a strong understanding of web technology. You will be the key contributor who will turbo-charge our release cycle even more so than it is today while at the same time increasing the quality of the code that we release.
