Job description
This role is eligible for our hybrid work model: Two days in-office.
Associate Software Engineer As an Associate Software Engineer on this team, you will build the "engine" behind our development lifecycle. You will design centralized E2E architectures, optimize distributed execution environments, and build AI-augmented internal tools that improve the developer experience. We are looking for engineers who want to build products for other engineers. Whether your background is in Native Mobile, Web, or Backend Infrastructure, we value a "platform-first" mindset.
Why this job’s a big deal: We are building a QA Enablement team dedicated to treating quality as an engineering problem, not a manual process. This team does not perform manual testing or feature-level QA. Instead, we build high-scale platforms, AI-driven tooling, and CI/CD integrations that allow product teams to ship code with total confidence. Our mission is to eliminate developer friction. While our initial focus is on native mobile (iOS and Android), we are building a multi-platform ecosystem that leverages the latest technology and patterns to reduce "flaky" signals and automate the toil of test maintenance. In this role, you will get to:
Build and maintain centralized E2E test suites for core user journeys using modern frameworks (sanity and regression)
Implement LLM-powered solutions to automatically diagnose test failures, suggest selector fixes, and categorize "flaky" vs. "real" regressions.
Operate and scale E2E execution using automation tools
Integrate team-owned E2E tests into shared sanity and regression pipelines
Define test execution strategies, tagging, and ownership models
Architect and maintain high-concurrency CI/CD workflows for automated testing
Build "Golden Path" pipeline templates that teams can adopt with zero configuration.
Integrate automated tests with PRs, scheduled runs, and release workflows
Improve execution reliability, speed, and parallelization
Design, build, and maintain internal/beta tools to enable automated testing for:
Native mobile apps (iOS and Android)
Web and UI applications
Prototype and evolve beta tools to improve:
Test authoring experience
Test execution reliability
Debugging and observability
Act as a consultant to product teams, helping them integrate their own tests into your high-speed pipelines.
Build and scale AI-augmented internal tools that improve the developer experience
Architectural Guardrails: Define and implement organization-wide automation standards and "Golden Paths" that make the right way the easiest way.
Reference Architecture: Build and maintain high-quality reference implementations and modular templates that product teams can fork and deploy instantly.
Strategic Consulting: Act as a specialized lead, partnering with product squads to solve complex automation bottlenecks and architect scalable test strategies.
Technical Evangelism: Drive the internal adoption of quality-first engineering through high-impact technical workshops and design reviews.
Test Observability & Insights: Build sophisticated telemetry dashboards to track test performance, bottleneck latency, and failure patterns across the entire SDLC.
Automated Flake Detection: Engineer "Self-Healing" mechanisms and algorithmic noise-reduction tools to identify and quarantine flaky tests automatically.
Feedback Loop Optimization: Continuously prune and tune CI/CD workflows to ensure developers receive high-signal results in minutes, not hours.
Root Cause Automation: Develop internal tooling that aggregates logs, stack traces, and screenshots to provide developers with instant, actionable failure analysis.
Who you are
2+ years of experience in an engineering role.
Proficiency in one or more languages (Java or Python/Kotlin) and a desire to work across the full stack—Angular/React
Strong willingness and ability to learn other languages and tools to enable automated testing at scale
Experience designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines
Experience integrating automated testing into CI/CD workflows
Experience building shared frameworks, internal tools, or platforms
Strong collaboration and communication skills
Systems Thinking: You don't just want to fix a test; you want to build a system that prevents it from breaking in the first place.
Illustrated history of living the values necessary to Priceline: customer, innovation, team, accountability, and trust.
The Right Results, the Right Way is not just a motto at Priceline; it’s a way of life. Unquestionable integrity and ethics are essential.
