You don't need hand-holding to configure test environments, CI/CD pipelines, or test data management. You take pride in ensuring quality and building robust testing infrastructure. You understand the balance between thorough testing and shipping on time. You can think like both a developer and an end user (property inspector). You're comfortable testing in production-like environments and can quickly reproduce customer issues. You write clear, actionable bug reports that developers appreciate. You understand Rails applications enough to know where issues might occur. You're proactive about testing edge cases and integration points. You enjoy the challenge of testing complex workflows and take ownership of quality outcomes.This isn't about joining a team with everything already set up.

You'll test traditional Rails views (ERB/HAML), complex inspection workflows, PDF report generation, and payment integrations. You'll balance maintaining existing test coverage with testing new features.
