Finite State partners with product security teams, the guardians of our connected world, to create transparency for their connected devices and supply chains. Our platform handles connected devices and embedded systems across all industries, including those found in enterprises, healthcare, utilities, connected vehicles, manufacturing facilities, critical infrastructure, and government entities.
We are a fast-growing series-B company with a fully distributed workforce. Led by a team of seasoned experts, we are a mission-driven team passionate about arming our customers with the actionable insights, critical vulnerability data, and remediation guidance necessary to mitigate product risk and protect the connected attack surface. We are committed to a remote first culture.
We are seeking an experienced QA Lead Engineer to drive quality strategy and execution within an AI-first development organization. This is not a traditional QA lead role — we are looking for a hands-on technical leader who can architect and implement an automated, AI-first quality framework that scales with modern software development.
In our environment, AI is a first-class partner in software creation. The QA Lead Engineer will define how quality is engineered into the product using automation, AI agents, and deep collaboration with Product and Engineering.
If you have over a decade of QA automation experience and are excited about redefining what quality means in an AI-native development lifecycle, we want to talk to you.
You will help define what QA looks like in an AI-first organization. This role goes beyond writing tests — it is about designing a quality system where AI agents collaborate with engineers to proactively identify, prevent, and fix defects.
This is an opportunity to lead the evolution of quality engineering.
At Finite State, we're on a mission to secure the connected world. Our platform empowers product security teams to detect vulnerabilities, manage software supply chain risks, and ensure compliance across complex device ecosystems. From IoT to critical infrastructure, we provide unparalleled visibility into firmware and software components, helping organizations protect their products and customers.
We move with urgency and intent — we’re transparent, own outcomes, put customers first, speak up, and learn fast — turning evidence into action. CLARITY is how we move fast without breaking trust.
Bold Innovation – We push boundaries, explore new ideas, and take initiative to solve complex problems.
The Finite State platform brings visibility and control to the supply chains that create connected devices and embedded systems—all in a simple to use platform and at the scale manufacturers need to keep device production on time and on budget. After unpacking and analyzing every file, configuration, and setting in a firmware build, the platform generates a complete bill of materials for software components, identifies known and 0-day vulnerabilities, shows a contextual risk score, and provides actionable insights that product teams can use to secure their software
