Meet Slingshot

At Slingshot Aerospace, we're on a mission to make space safer and more secure for everyone. Our work directly impacts global security, disaster response, climate monitoring, and the critical infrastructure that connects our world. We're a team of builders, thinkers, and problem-solvers who believe that the next generation of space operations will be powered by better data and smarter software.

We move fast, we're not afraid to fail, and we believe the best ideas can come from anywhere-whether you're in engineering, sales, product, or operations. If you want to work on something that truly matters, with people who care deeply about the impact we're making and help shape the future of an industry that's just getting started, you're in the right place.

What You'll Be Launching

As a QA Automation Engineer, you'll help ensure the quality, reliability, and performance of the software that powers Slingshot's mission. You'll work at the intersection of software engineering, product development, and AI-driven analytics, partnering with teams across the organization to deliver exceptional user experiences and scalable solutions.

This role goes beyond traditional testing. You'll help shape quality strategy, expand automation coverage, support release management, and collaborate closely with front-end engineers, back-end developers, and AI/Data Science teams. The ideal candidate is equally comfortable validating new functionality, building automation frameworks, and identifying opportunities to improve quality across the software development lifecycle.

We're building a team of sharp, creative people who love solving hard problems. Bring your expertise, your perspective, and your drive-we'll bring the rocket fuel.

Your Mission (Should You Choose to Accept It) Quality Engineering & Test Automation

• Design, develop, and maintain automated testing solutions across UI, API, integration, and end-to-end workflows.

• Partner closely with developers to integrate automated testing into CI/CD pipelines and ensure quality is built into every release.
• Create and maintain test plans, test cases, and quality processes that support rapid product development.

Product Quality & Validation

• Collaborate with Product Managers, Designers, and Engineers to review requirements, acceptance criteria, and user stories to ensure clear, testable outcomes.
• Validate front-end, back-end, and AI-enabled functionality across multiple products and platforms.
• Identify, document, and track defects through resolution using established quality assurance methodologies.
• Assess production readiness and validate release quality prior to deployment.

Platform & Integration Testing

• Develop and execute API, integration, and backend validation testing using modern testing frameworks and tools.
• Verify data integrity, system interoperability, and reliability across connected services and external integrations.
• Design and execute performance and scalability testing scenarios to evaluate system responsiveness and stability.
• Troubleshoot issues related to APIs, databases, and distributed system interactions.

Release Management & Continuous Improvement

• Support weekly production releases through testing coordination, validation, and stakeholder communication.
• Deliver demonstrations of completed functionality and provide feedback to development teams.
• Analyze quality trends and recommend improvements to testing strategies, tooling, and processes.
